Family therapy and counseling in Rockledge, FL

Hello,

I am Elange Guerrelus, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience working with individuals, families, groups, and couples experiencing with cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and marital difficulties. I am a level 3 Gottman trained couples therapist and a certified parent instructor along with an extensive and great experience in Christian counseling. It will my pleasure to assist you with your mental health needs. Throughout my professional experience, I utilized various psychotherapy methods and techniques to assist children and families experiencing psychological distress to improve their mental well-being. My skill set and experience in this field have allowed me to work in a wide range of settings such as mental health clinics, community health centers, churches, and hospitals.

Hi, I’m Natalie, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I work with young adults and adults, as well as couples and families, who may be navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, family conflict, life transitions, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of everyday life. If any of this resonates with where you are right now, I would love to connect and explore how we might work together.

How do we make sense of our stuff? This is a critical question. Life can be challenging and sometimes we can’t understand what we are experiencing and why. Much of our ability to overcome adversity originates from our mindset- how we process our experiences. It is the lens through which we view our reality.

Essentially, what contributes to our overall well-being is not necessarily the absence of setbacks but rather how we respond to these experiences. Our ability to accept our challenges, to make meaning out of them, to understand how they serve us, is necessary for our personal growth. I work with my clients to help them shift their mindset and to find meaning in all of life’s experiences.

I have been a been a practicing Social Worker for twenty years. I hold a Ph.D. in Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I take a person-centered approach to therapeutic work and integrate a variety of intervention modalities into my practice. I specialize in Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Multisystemic Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and Structural Family Therapy. I also have extensive experience with Trauma Informed Care as well as grief and bereavement work. I partner with my clients to determine which approach might be most meaningful to them.

I believe that healthy relationships are one of the most important parts of emotional well-being. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I help individuals and couples strengthen communication, navigate conflict, process life transitions, and build deeper, healthier connections with themselves and others.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, and I work to make the process feel comfortable, approachable, and meaningful from the very beginning.

I have experience supporting clients with relationship challenges, anxiety, stress, emotional overwhelm, communication difficulties, self-esteem concerns, and personal growth. I work with adults, couples, and individuals who are looking to better understand themselves, improve their relationships, and create lasting positive change.

I believe therapy works best when there is a strong connection between therapist and client. My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I'll offer compassion and support, but I'll also help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck.

As a trauma-informed therapist and EMDR specialist, I create a space where you can be yourself without judgment. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable with me quickly because I show up as a real person—not just a therapist.

I believe healing happens through both insight and action. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered to create meaningful change in your life.

I support adults facing relationship pain, life transitions, anxiety, and identity shifts. Having lived through betrayal and rebuilt my own life, I understand these experiences from the inside out. I believe the most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one with yourself. Together, we focus on finding the answers so the next step feels possible.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have extensive experience treating adults in both outpatient and residential settings and provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment for conditions including Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, and other mental health concerns. My practice is built on a collaborative, patient-centered approach. Together, we will develop an individualized treatment plan focused on resilience, personal growth, and lasting wellness. I believe in responsible, evidence-based prescribing and thoughtful diagnostic evaluation. ADHD treatment begins with a comprehensive assessment, and when appropriate, psychological testing or supporting documentation may be required to confirm the diagnosis before stimulant medication is considered. Additionally, my practice does not routinely prescribe benzodiazepines for the treatment of anxiety or insomnia. Instead, I focus on treatments that have strong evidence for long-term effectiveness and safety, including psychotherapy referrals, lifestyle interventions, and non-benzodiazepine medication options when appropriate. My goal is to partner with individuals who are committed to improving their mental health and actively participating in their treatment journey. Whether you are seeking relief from symptoms, greater emotional resilience, or a path toward lasting recovery, I look forward to working with you. If you are ready to invest in your mental wellness, I invite you to schedule a virtual consultation. Together, we can create a personalized treatment plan that supports your goals and helps you build a healthier, more fulfilling life.
