I have 9 years of experience working in psychiatric nursing before becoming a nurse practitioner. I worked at Northeast Florida State Hospital in Macclenny, Florida for 9 years as an Registered Nurse. I understand the pitfalls of institutionalization and the path of recovery is a long one but still is achievable with the right support system.
Hi, I'm Diana — a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with individuals and families, including older adults, navigating anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, and life transitions. My background spans schools, foster care, supportive housing for youth, and outpatient mental health across New York and Florida. I know how hard it can be to find a therapist who truly understands your culture, your language, and the pressures you carry — whether that's family expectations, being the one everyone else leans on, health changes, caregiving, or figuring out who you are apart from everyone else's needs. Many of the people I work with are holding it together for everyone around them while quietly running on empty. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel understood, in whichever language feels most like home.
Hi, I’m Keshia Trammell, welcome to my practice!
I believe that meaningful change begins with a single conversation. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, self-esteem concerns, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and practical guidance.
My therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered techniques to help you develop healthier coping skills, build resilience, and create lasting change.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am passionate about helping individuals recognize their strengths, overcome obstacles, and move toward the life they envision. I believe therapy is not about having all the answers—it’s about having someone who will listen, challenge you when appropriate, support your growth, and celebrate your progress.
Every session is an opportunity to take another step toward healing. You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward greater confidence, balance, and emotional well-being.
If you're struggling with addiction, carrying the weight of complex trauma, or trying to cope while managing a chronic health condition, I want you to know there's a way forward — and you don't have to walk it alone. I'm a Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CADC) with over 16 years of experience across private practice, residential substance abuse treatment, medical social work, and the non-profit world. I've sat with people in their hardest, most overwhelming moments, and I bring that same steady, non-judgmental presence to every session.
Much of my work centers on substance use and recovery, complex trauma, and the emotional toll of chronic medical conditions. Whether you're in the thick of a crisis or finally ready to address something you've carried for years, I'll meet you exactly where you are — with compassion, real tools, and zero judgment.
I help adolescents and adults navigate anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional struggles so they can feel more balanced, connected, and confident in their daily lives. Do you ever feel pulled in too many directions, juggling relationships, work, family responsibilities, and your own well-being, while rarely finding the time or space to truly care for yourself? When life feels overwhelming, it can be easy to lose touch with your own needs and emotions. Therapy can provide a space to slow down, gain clarity, reconnect with yourself, and create a life that feels more fulfilling and aligned with the life you want.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I believe therapy works best when built on trust, authenticity, and partnership. Together, we will explore patterns that may no longer be serving you, build on your strengths, and develop practical strategies to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and confident moving forward.
In our first session, we’ll take time to get to know one another, discuss what brings you to therapy, and explore your goals for our work together. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change. I invite you to reach out or schedule an appointment, and I look forward to supporting you as you work toward the life you want.
Welcome, I'm Hannah! I am a licensed therapist based in Florida. I deeply enjoy working with clients of various identities and cultural backgrounds. Together, we can navigate things like identity development, relationships, emotional regulation, and all of the unique parts of yourself. I strive to help you find useful tools that promote empowerment and self-understanding. As your therapist, I welcome you as are and I am eager to support you in your wellness journey. If you are seeking therapy that prioritizes authenticity, curiosity, and new insights, then we may be a great fit.
