You don't have to hit rock bottom to deserve support. Sometimes you know something isn't working, but you're not sure where to start or whether your struggles are "serious enough" for therapy. I work with adults navigating addiction and recovery at all stages, as well as anxiety, trauma, and ADHD. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what's happening without judgment and begin figuring out what you want to change.

Tony Bradford

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Hey, I'm Tony an LCSW based in Florida with a background that spans matters of faith, youth counseling, marital and pre-marital counseling, military family and individual support, suicide prevention advocacy, and substance abuse treatment. I've sat across from people in some of life's most difficult moments, and what I've learned is that most people aren't broken they're carrying a lot, often without enough support. I specialize in working with individuals and couples navigating relationships, substance use, and the everyday weight of life that doesn't always have a name. Whether you're trying to find your footing after a hard season, repair something important, or just finally make space to talk through what's been building up - I'm here for that.

Maybe it started as anxiety, the kind that sits in your chest before you've even opened your eyes in the morning. Or maybe it was something that happened a long time ago that you thought you'd moved past, until you noticed it showing up in your relationships, your drinking, your sleep, your ability to just feel okay on a regular Tuesday. A lot of people who find their way to therapy aren't in crisis. They're just tired of carrying something that's gotten heavier than it used to be, and tired of the ways they've been managing it. If that's where you are, whether you're sorting through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or a complicated relationship with alcohol or substances, you're not unusual. And you're not out of options..

Therapist

I got my start working in a residential setting, supporting people through serious mental health challenges, trauma, and addiction. That experience shaped how I see therapy, it’s not just clinical, it’s about feeling understood and not alone in what you’re going through. I now work with people dealing with things like trauma, emotional ups and downs, and substance use, and I’m trained in EMDR. While I have experience with more intense situations, I also work with people who feel stuck, reactive, or disconnected and want to understand why.
