Find a therapist in Florida — covered by insurance

I am a Clinical Psychologist who is licensed in Washington State, Arizona, and Florida. For the past ten years, I have been working with adult clients who are seeking a meaningful psychotherapy experience to achieve positive therapeutic outcomes as well as those who would like to reduce stress and difficulties to enjoy a higher quality of life. Throughout my career, I have worked with clients with various disorders, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, Autistic syndrome, schizophrenia, and pain disorders at various settings including inpatient, outpatient and group settings, private practice, and government organizations.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and Board-Certified Sex Therapist with over 25 years of experience in healthcare and mental wellness. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy to individuals navigating a wide range of emotional, psychological, and life challenges. I have specialized experience supporting clients from diverse backgrounds and ideologies. My practice is grounded in a commitment to inclusivity, respect, and cultural sensitivity.

When life feels overwhelming and you’re tired of trying to “hold it all together” on your own, therapy can offer a place to pause, feel understood, and find a clearer way forward. I am the owner and director of Monarch Therapy, and as a Clinical Mental Health Counselor I work with individuals, couples, and families to address a variety of emotional and mental health issues. I have worked with adults, children, adolescents, and families in a range of settings for over twenty years, and as a mental health therapist for more than 15 years. Areas of special interest and training include EMDR; post-traumatic stress disorder; trauma-based cognitive behavioral therapy; mood disorders and anxiety; and navigating life transitions.

My background includes trauma, substance use, crisis intervention, anxiety, OCD, and relationship challenges. I am especially passionate about supporting marginalized communities, particularly women and teens, while creating an inclusive and affirming space for all identities and lived experiences. I believe in breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and helping people feel less alone in what they carry.

My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and tailored to each individual rather than forcing clients into one specific framework. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a reprocessing therapy similar to EMDR. I draw from these approaches based on your unique needs, personality, and goals while balancing evidence-based interventions with authenticity, humor, compassion, and occasional tough love.

With over 20 years of experience in community, inpatient, and outpatient behavioral health settings, I specialize in guiding individuals through a wide range of life challenges. I hold Master’s degrees in Education and Clinical Social Work and am licensed to provide therapy via telehealth counseling services (i.e., video and phone) in Virginia, Texas, Florida, and Louisiana.

I work with adults who may feel stuck in patterns that are affecting their relationships, recovery, self-esteem, or overall quality of life. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing co-occurring substance use and eating disorders, as well as mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and borderline personality disorder (BPD).

Many of the people I work with have spent years using unhealthy behaviors to cope with difficult emotions, trauma, perfectionism, or painful beliefs about themselves. You may understand intellectually that something needs to change but feel unsure how to actually break those patterns. My goal is to help you understand where these patterns come from, develop healthier ways of coping, and begin creating a life that feels more aligned with who you want to be.

In my downtime, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, live music, thrifting, cuddling my animals, reading, and outdoor activities.

I am a "out of the box" therapist and qualified supervisor. I specialize in difficult cases. If you have been treated in the past and have not realized any appreciable changes or benefits, you may be discouraged and believe therapy doesn't "work".

Sometimes it’s not just one thing... it’s everything. Overwhelming. Exhausting. Life just feels off, and you’re not quite yourself. And in the middle of this, it’s easy to feel lost. But what if this hard season... is actually your way back to you? The version of you who feels grounded, focused, and able to enjoy life again. Divorce. Job loss. Empty nest. Relocation. Anxious. Depressed. It can feel like everything is falling apart, but it can also be where something new begins. I help women through life’s toughest transitions with compassion, and real tools. You don’t have to do this alone. Evening & weekend sessions available.

Life can get overwhelming sometimes. Stress, anxiety, frustration, and past experiences can start to weigh on you and affect your relationships, your work, and how you feel day to day. If you’ve been feeling stuck or just need a space to sort things out, therapy can help.

Hi, I’m Amber, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP).

You want someone who listens, who takes your struggles seriously, and who knows that mental health isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why I combine evidence-based care with a compassionate, personalized approach.

My goal is to help you not just manage symptoms, but truly improve your quality of life—so you can show up as your best self for your family, your career, and most importantly, for you...
