My practice utilizes a blend of compassionate care and practical life coaching, helping individuals and couples unearth their authentic selves, cultivate healthy relationships, and foster emotional intelligence. I focus on guiding clients toward personal growth, self-awareness, and creating a balanced, fulfilling life.
Life can feel overwhelming, especially when you’ve been carrying painful experiences on your own. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma, including sexual trauma and PTSD, as well as women navigating self-esteem, relationships, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, genuine, and judgment-free, while still helping you challenge patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build practical coping skills, and feel more confident moving forward.
I specialize in empowering clients by blending creative yet practical interventions. One of my greatest joys is partnering with others to help them gain a deeper understanding of self and lead a more fulfilled life. It would be my privilege to join you in achieving your therapeutic goals.
Are you feeling stuck? Frustrated? Having a difficult time navigating changes in your life? I am here to help!
I have been in social work practice for over 12 years now. I have worked with various populations including those who are dealing with life stressors, in crisis, dealing with chronic illness, grief/loss, difficulty adjusting to life transitions, trauma and stress. I approach my clients with respect and with an open mind!
Dr. Daly-Stennis DNP, PMHNP-BC has been a dedicated board-certified nurse practitioner for the past 19 years. She treats each person with dignity and respect while assisting them through life’s difficulties. She specializes in prescribing medications for adults with all psychiatric disorders and individual psychotherapy with a warm spiritual psychodynamic approach.
Finding the right therapist is an important step, and I know it can feel a little intimidating. My hope is that by learning a little about me, you will feel more comfortable before we meet for the first time. I earned my Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) from Albizu University in Miami, Fl and have been working for over 9 years in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing a wide range of emotional and life challenges in hospitals, inpatient facilities, and private practice. I specialize in helping adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, trauma, eating disorders, grief, perimenopause, and other health and women's mental health concerns.
My therapeutic style is personalized because I don't believe once approach fits all. I integrate evidence-based treatments, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness based interventions, and trauma informed techniques. Together, we will work together to identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck while developing practical skills you can use outside of our session.

I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable being fully yourself. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and never judged, while also being supported in making real, meaningful changes in your life.
Clients often share that they feel at ease talking with me, but also appreciate that I’m honest and help them look at things in new ways. I’m not here to just nod along. I’m here to help you understand yourself more deeply, recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and figure out what actually works for you moving forward.
I take a collaborative approach, which means we work together to make sense of your experiences and build tools that fit your life. Therapy does not have to feel cold or overly clinical. It can be a space that feels genuine, supportive, and even a little lighter at times, while still doing the deeper work.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a 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.
