“I’m Kimberly Covington, a trauma-informed therapist and coach with over 13 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, trauma, and life transitions.
Because at the end of the day—peace over pressure.”
Hi, I'm Kaitlyn, a therapist who graduated from the University of Tennessee at Martin. I specialize in men's mental health, and I'm deeply committed to helping men feel comfortable, understood, and supported in a therapeutic setting.
I know that seeking therapy can feel like a big step, especially when life is throwing a lot at you at once. Whether you're dealing with stress that feels unmanageable, anxiety that follows you into every part of your day, or a major life transition that has left you feeling uncertain about what comes next, I'm here to help you work through it with practical, evidence-based tools that actually make a difference.
My primary approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, a well-researched method that focuses on identifying the unhelpful thought patterns driving how you feel and behave, and replacing them with healthier, more grounded ways of thinking and responding. CBT is structured and goal-focused, which means we won't just be talking in circles. Every session is designed to move you forward in a real, measurable way.
I chose to specialize in men's mental health because I believe men deserve a therapy experience that respects how they think, communicate, and process challenges. My goal is to make therapy feel less like something being done to you and more like a practical tool you can use to build the life you want.
I have my Master of Social Work from New York University and have worked in Social Services and Behavioral Healthcare for more than 26 years between New York City and Philadelphia. I offer individual therapy to support my clients in their work to live their best lives, whatever that means to them. I have experience working in inpatient psychiatry and outpatient counseling.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, or relationship challenges? Many individuals find themselves stuck despite wanting meaningful change, especially when emotional distress begins to interfere with daily functioning and overall well-being. Therapy offers a structured and supportive space to better understand these challenges and develop effective coping strategies. Seeking professional support is an important first step, and meaningful change occurs through intentional work both in and outside the therapy setting.
My name is Mick Desrameaux, LMHC, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience treating anxiety disorders, depression, trauma-related symptoms, substance use concerns, and co-occurring mental health conditions. I work collaboratively with clients to increase self-awareness, emotional regulation, and insight into patterns that affect relationships and personal growth. My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
I provide a safe, confidential, and nonjudgmental therapy environment where clients feel respected and supported. My goal is to help individuals feel empowered, build healthier relationships, and develop practical skills for long-term emotional stability. I am committed to delivering client-centered, ethical, and culturally responsive mental health counseling, supporting clients as they move toward greater balance, resilience, and overall mental wellness.
As a therapist born and raised in Miami, Florida, within a rich Haitian American and Caribbean culture, I understand the importance of connection, community, and resilience. My heritage has shaped the way I approach healing with warmth, empathy, and deep respect for each person’s unique story. In my practice, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported. Clients often describe me as kind-hearted, understanding, and compassionate. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change and a more fulfilling life, one step and one moment at a time.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with over nine years of
experience helping individuals navigate life’s emotional challenges. I have
supported clients through a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression,
stress, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, life transitions, and trauma. I
also have specialized experience working with mothers navigating postpartum
depression, anxiety, and the emotional adjustments that come with pregnancy
and early parenthood. My work includes providing therapy in homes,
community settings, and virtually—meeting clients where they feel most
supported.
I believe you are the expert of your own story, and your God-given
strengths—whether fully realized or still emerging—can guide your healing
journey. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empathy, faith, and
respect. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I commend you
for choosing healing. You do not have to walk this road alone.
I have been practicing for over 17 years providing Individual and family therapy. My focus is to facilitate strategies and interventions that will bring you hope and transformation.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Lakeland, FL
Finding couples therapists in Lakeland starts with naming what you want to work on together. Couples therapy, marriage counseling in Lakeland, FL, and relationship counseling may support concerns like communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Look for a therapist whose training matches your needs, since not all therapists have specific couples training. Licensed marriage and family therapists, as well as therapists trained in the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, may be especially relevant.
In a smaller city like Lakeland, local appointment options may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still letting you choose a Lakeland therapist or a therapist licensed in Florida. Since couples counseling needs to work for both partners, compare appointment times, session format, and whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand how they structure couples sessions, communicate with both partners, and approach relationship concerns.
Therapy in Lakeland can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who offer couples counseling in Lakeland and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific plan before booking. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, then review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
