Therapist

"I want you to become the expert on you." You are the expert on your own life, but sometimes life layers challenges that make it hard to see the way forward—anxiety that keeps you awake, the heavy weight of grief, or the lingering echoes of trauma. My name is June Pittman, and I founded Positive FX Counseling & Wellness because I believe that even in our darkest chapters, we have the innate capacity to create a 'positive effect' on our own mental well-being.

Based in West Palm Beach, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) dedicated to helping adults and adolescents navigate the complexities of identity and loss. With a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Palm Beach Atlantic University and a background in organizational systems, I bring a grounded, holistic perspective to the healing process—helping you bridge the gap between where you are and the resilient future you deserve.

Do you constantly worry? Do you overthink plans and solutions to worst-case outcomes so that you feel prepared? Does everything have to be done perfectly? Do you have difficulty handling uncertainty?

I specialize in helping those suffering from anxiety, including health care professionals and veterans. You don't have to continue suffering. As a seasoned therapist, I can help empower you to stop the cycle of worry and anxiety, find your sense of purpose, become the best version of yourself, and reclaim your life.
