Hi everyone! My name is Ivy, and I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner based in Orlando, FL.
I am a 28 year old female (she/her) that enjoys watching anime, playing video games, and spending time with my five cats.
Outside of work, I like to spend time with my fiance. We love to explore and try new food places, so if you're looking for recommendations, I have tons!
I love to utilize EMDR, psychoeducation along with other methods to help resolve the distress.
Hey all! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for helping my clients gain a deeper love and understanding of self at a foundational level. I enjoy assisting my clients in cultivating a better awareness of triggers that often appear in their lives, as well as in prompting client exploration regarding narratives that have been carried for too long. My main goal is to facilitate overall client healing and empowerment!
Hey there! My name is Nikki :) a little about me is that I view my clients holistically and from a systems lens. I enjoy learning about my clients within the context of their childhoods, environment, and the culmination of their life experiences. I am very familiar with grief and find fulfillment in helping clients process major life changes and transitions. If clients are open, I incorporate spiritual understanding and meaning-making. As an LMFT, I love to assist clients in improving communication with others, especially loved ones, or to assist in boundary-setting strategies. A huge focus of mine is client empowerment and self-love, which extends to how one navigates the world!
Hi! I'm Katia, a counselor dedicated to guiding you through life's challenges. My approach prioritizes you, creating a judgment-free space for exploration. As a first-gen Latin immigrant, I've faced societal pressures, finding strength in resilience. I believe in everyone's capacity to heal and grow, aiming for a balanced life.
Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you're carrying anxiety, depression, mood changes, or emotions that seem difficult to manage on your own. I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel heard without judgment and supported through life's challenges. Whether you're navigating ADHD, bipolar disorder, anger management concerns, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, identity questions, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to help you better understand yourself while building the tools you need to move forward. I work with both adolescents and adults, recognizing that every stage of life brings unique experiences and obstacles. Together, we'll create a supportive, collaborative environment where you can explore what's weighing on you, discover your strengths, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.
I believe that everyone has an innate capacity to guide their own lives. Sometimes, we forget this superpower! I'm here to help you remember your own light and empower you to shine. I was an educator for over twenty years, and I have worked with diverse populations in many capacities. I will help you see your strengths and possibilities.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Orlando
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Orlando starts with looking for identity-affirming care that fits your needs. An affirming therapist may support people navigating identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for therapists who list experience with LGBTQIA+ communities, affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or WPATH training. Finding a therapist who offers affirming care matters beyond credentials — it can shape how clearly their approach matches what you want from therapy.
Orlando has a range of counseling options, but the number of LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists can vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options if you want a therapist with specific experience or if in-person offices near you have limited availability. When reviewing therapists, consider appointment times, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Provider bios can help you see how directly a therapist describes their work with LGBTQIA+ people, their communication style, and what a first session may involve.
Therapy in Orlando can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and compare available appointments in one place. You can review bios, filter for LGBTQIA+ experience, and book directly when you’re ready.
