As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I am passionate about creating a space where you can feel safe, supported, and truly understood. My work is rooted in compassion and connection, honoring your unique experiences while helping you move toward healing, balance, and greater peace within yourself. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, celebrate your strengths, and cultivate the meaningful change you’re seeking in your life.
Hello everyone! I am Dr. Beverly Regisford-Henry, a licensed psychotherapist in both Florida and New York. I specialize in working with children, teens, young adults, and the families who support them.
I approach therapy with the understanding that children do not heal in isolation. With over 12 years of experience as a therapist and more than 20 years as an educator, I bring a unique blend of clinical expertise, educational insight, and genuine compassion to my work.
I have walked school hallways, partnered closely with parents, and supported families navigating real-life challenges. I understand the quieter struggles young people often carry—and I am deeply committed to helping them feel heard, understood, and empowered.
My work also extends to adults navigating family and relationship challenges. I have experience helping individuals work through marital and partner conflict, parent-child concerns, strained relationships with adult children, and the unique challenges that can arise within blended families and stepparent/stepchild relationships. I help clients recognize unhealthy patterns, improve communication, establish healthy boundaries, and find more effective ways to navigate difficult family relationships.
Whether I am working with a child, teen, young adult, parent, or an adult experiencing relationship or family conflict, my goal is to provide a supportive space where clients can gain insight, strengthen relationships, and move toward meaningful change.
Hi my name is Brandy. I specialize in working with clients in crisis
I believe every person has a story worth hearing and inherent strengths worth uncovering. I am committed to culturally humble, authentic care and to meeting you exactly where you are whether you feel overwhelmed, hopeful, exhausted, curious, or somewhere in between. Together, we will build resilience, strengthen your coping skills, and help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that feel steady, capable, and strong.
My name is Latarsia Renee Williams, but feel free to call me Tarsia (pronounced like Tasha). I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama, and I have been working with clients since 2016. My professional background includes supporting individuals, couples, families, and groups across a range of settings such as youth programs, detention facilities, group therapy environments, and private practice. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2018 and became fully licensed in 2024.
I currently provide telehealth services to adults across Florida. I specialize in helping clients navigate trauma, grief, emotional regulation, low self-worth, mood and attention challenges, and relationship concerns. I also offer Christian counseling for those seeking to integrate their faith into the therapeutic process.
As a therapist for 8 years, I believe anything can be accomplished through the right therapeutic approach. It is not about fitting a client into a mold but creating a mold that fits the client. Through this journey, the client is the artist, sculptor, and visionary that recreates the new and repairs the old.
I am a neurodivergent, LGBTQ+ affirming provider who believes in social justice. I graduated from NYU in 2015 with my MSW degree and the last 10 years I have worked in various hospital based clinic settings providing mental and behavioral health interventions and therapy to children, adolescents and adults. I am passionate about serving underserved communities and access to care. I accept sliding scale out of pocket in addition to insurance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fort Walton Beach
Finding therapists in Fort Walton Beach starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s bio can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Fort Walton Beach has a smaller local therapist market, so virtual appointments can give you more options while still keeping care connected to Florida-licensed therapists. In-person sessions may work well if you prefer meeting in an office, while virtual sessions can fit more easily around work, school, caregiving, or travel across Okaloosa County. Beyond specialty, compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Fort Walton Beach can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before you begin. Headway helps you search therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your coverage, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
