Hi there! My name is HavreDe Hill. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida with over 15 years’ experience providing social services to youth and families and mental health counseling to children, teens, and adults. I have worked with diverse clients along the spectrum of needs seeking help with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, chronic health issues, trauma, parenting, life transitions, LGBTQ+ issues, and more. I also work with my clients to attain joy, balance, and success in their work, health, relationships, and mind-body-spirit. As a fierce advocate for holistic health, I am committed to harnessing my clients’ personal potential for wellness.
I received my Bachelor of Arts in Women’s Studies from the University of Florida (2006), my Master of Science in Applied Psychology from Lynn University (2014), and my certification as a Functional Medicine Health Coach from the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy (2022).

I bring a compassionate, real-world understanding to therapy. My experience includes supporting individuals living with severe and persistent mental health challenges, veterans, people affected by addiction, and those navigating many other mental health concerns. I create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen and understood. Using CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered care, I tailor treatment to your needs and goals while helping you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward meaningful change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Port Charlotte
Searching for therapists in Port Charlotte starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People often look for therapy care in Port Charlotte for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or couples counseling. A therapist’s profile can help you understand who they work with, what concerns they focus on, and what sessions may be like.
In a smaller city like Port Charlotte, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Florida markets. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Florida. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist offers in-person or virtual sessions, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading bios before booking can also help you compare communication style, background, and approach across therapists, counselors, psychologists, and other licensed mental health professionals.
Therapy in Port Charlotte 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 care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Port Charlotte, review profiles, 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.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
