Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Hi, I’m Keshia Trammell, welcome to my practice!

I believe that meaningful change begins with a single conversation. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, self-esteem concerns, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and practical guidance.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered techniques to help you develop healthier coping skills, build resilience, and create lasting change.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am passionate about helping individuals recognize their strengths, overcome obstacles, and move toward the life they envision. I believe therapy is not about having all the answers—it’s about having someone who will listen, challenge you when appropriate, support your growth, and celebrate your progress.

Every session is an opportunity to take another step toward healing. You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward greater confidence, balance, and emotional well-being.

Nisha Patel

Nisha Patel

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I’m Nisha, a relational, trauma-informed therapist and founder of Inner Work Psychotherapy.

I work with adults navigating unhealthy or challenging relationships. Many of my clients are exploring the impact of growing up in dysfunctional family systems while working through difficult family dynamics, attachment concerns, and challenges with understanding and regulating their emotions across various areas of life.

I believe everyone has the capacity to create new patterns that support the life they want to live. My mission is to help people understand themselves more deeply, break cycles that no longer serve them, and build healthier relationships with themselves and others.

Together, we’ll work toward helping you live a more intentional, values-driven life.

I see clients ages 18–50 for individual therapy and provide group therapy as well.

Kristen Henderson

Kristen Henderson

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Tampa, working with adults and couples who want more than surface-level therapy. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who look like they have it together, but internally feel stuck in patterns, overwhelmed, or disconnected in the relationships that matter most to them.

My background is in relational and insight-oriented therapy, so we focus on understanding what’s underneath, not just managing symptoms. I’m engaged, direct, and collaborative, and when practical tools would actually help, we use them.

I work with anxiety, relationship struggles, life transitions, and emotionally stuck or high-conflict dynamics. With couples, I focus on rebuilding connection, improving communication, and helping each person honestly understand their role in the pattern.

Therapy with me is about more than getting through the week. It’s about actually understanding yourself and changing what isn’t working.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Tallahassee

Searching for therapists in Tallahassee starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Some people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or couples counseling.

Tallahassee has local options across neighborhoods like Frenchtown, Eastside, Westside, and areas near Florida State University, while virtual therapy can give you more flexibility across Florida. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual appointments because they fit better with work, school, caregiving, or transportation needs. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand a therapist’s communication style and what sessions may look like.

Therapy in Tallahassee can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can browse therapists in Tallahassee, review bios, 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.
