Hola, I’m Mercedes. I’m a bilingual (English | Spanish) psychotherapist who supports individuals navigating Anxiety, Trauma, and significant life transitions. My approach incorporates somatic principles to help you develop greater Self-Awareness by listening to what your body is communicating.

I understand how easy it can be to lose touch with yourself when you’ve spent so much time surviving, adapting, or staying strong. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, feel truly understood, and reconnect with yourself so you can make decisions that feel more aligned with who you are and where you want to go.

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.

Deirdre Arato

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


My journey began as a deeply personal quest for healing, shaped by significant challenges such as abandonment, neglect, and trauma. Overcoming hardships like poverty, familial substance abuse, and toxic relationships led me to a lifelong struggle with anxiety and feelings of isolation. In my search for relief, I explored countless self-help resources, pursued degrees in psychology, and experimented with therapeutic techniques, yet nothing seemed to offer lasting change.

Everything shifted for me about three years ago when I experienced a transformative moment that inspired the creation of the Blue Lotus Approach. This method has not only helped me heal but has also profoundly impacted my clients, guiding them toward self-awareness and resilience.

You may be dealing with anxiety, depression, changes in mood, difficulty focusing, poor sleep, or simply feeling unlike yourself lately. Maybe you’ve tried treatment before and still have questions, or you’re considering psychiatric care for the first time and aren’t sure where to begin. At Harborline Psychiatry, we work with adults who want to better understand what they’re experiencing and take an active role in their care. We start by slowing things down, looking at the whole picture, and building a treatment plan that makes sense for you.

I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for patients throughout Florida. My approach is thoughtful and collaborative: we’ll consider your symptoms, history, concerns, and goals before deciding what treatment should look like. When medication is appropriate, I’ll explain the options and reasoning so we can make those decisions together.

Reaching out for psychiatric care can feel like a big step, especially if you’ve felt unheard or uncertain about treatment in the past. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, collaborative approach to your mental health, I’d be glad to help you find a steadier way forward.
