I have been in the mental health field for over 10 years and have been counseling for four years. I became a counselor because I genuinely care about what happens to others and I want to help them through tough times. I have a passion for working with the LGBT+, ENM/Polyamorous, minority, and Kink communities. I am proficient in helping with issues related to trauma. I especially love to help empower the oppressed and the people who are made to feel "less than."

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 19 mi away • Tampa, FL


I grew up in central Florida and earned my Bachelor of Science in Family and Child Sciences from Florida State University, followed by a Master of Arts in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida. During graduate school, I gained experience working in a treatment facility and with college students at USF, advocating for children’s educational needs while they balanced mental health treatment. This exposure led to my interest in behavior-focused therapy, particularly in using exposure techniques.

I’ve worked with children, teens, and adults dealing with obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety disorders, depression, Tourette's, and disordered eating.

Hello, I’m Martyna, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at WellMinded Health. I provide comprehensive psychiatric care for adults across Florida.

My background includes experience in wellness-focused care, functional medicine, and long-term care settings. This has shaped the way I approach mental health treatment, allowing me to consider the broader picture of a patient’s health, including lifestyle, physical health, and environmental factors that may influence emotional well-being.

I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and stress-related concerns.

My goal is to provide thoughtful, evidence-based psychiatric care in a supportive and respectful environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their concerns and actively participating in their treatment.

Josefina Fletcher

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 21 mi away • Wesley Chapel, FL


I believe therapy works best when clients feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, and I strive to create a space where clients can openly explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences at their own pace.

I understand that reaching out for help can feel vulnerable, and I value the trust my clients place in me. I work to meet each person where they are while helping them build insight, coping skills, resilience, and confidence. I believe in balancing empathy and validation with practical tools and strategies that support meaningful and lasting change.

Clients often describe me as compassionate, approachable, calming, and easy to talk to. I utilize evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, while tailoring treatment to each client’s individual needs and goals.

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 Valrico

Searching for therapists in Valrico starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Valrico therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to work on. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

In a smaller community like Valrico, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Florida cities. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Florida. As you narrow options for therapy in Valrico, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Mental health counseling in Valrico, FL 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 accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
