Nashat Ali

Nashat Ali

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I trained in medicine before I became a therapist, and it changed what I listen for. When a client tells me her chest tightens before every meeting, or that she can't stop thinking about a diagnosis, I take the physical side of that seriously.

I hold a PhD in health psychology and I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois and Florida. My published research is on post-traumatic growth in women. Since 2020 I've also taught graduate counseling and psychology as an adjunct professor.

I see adults dealing with trauma and complex trauma, chronic illness, health anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions. I work with women through perinatal and postpartum struggles and through fertility challenges. I also see adolescents.

I speak English, Hindi, Arabic, and Urdu. If you're dealing with immigration, acculturation, or family expectations that don't translate easily, you won't have to explain that context to me first.

Gary Bray

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing your mental health is one of the most important steps toward building a stable, meaningful, and fulfilling life. Reaching out for help can feel intimidating, and I want to acknowledge the courage it takes to begin that process. I have been practicing for over 26 years, with the past decade focused on helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and anger management concerns.

Many of the clients I work with experience chronic stress, difficulty managing emotions, communication struggles, or patterns in relationships that leave them feeling frustrated, misunderstood, or disconnected. I work with clients ages 15–65 and support individuals who may be dealing with persistent worry, low mood, irritability, family conflict, life transitions, or difficulty coping with everyday pressures. My goal is to help you gain insight into your experiences, strengthen emotional resilience, and develop healthier ways to manage challenges so you can move forward with greater confidence and balance.
