Hi, I'm Alanna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing telehealth therapy for adults across Florida. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, and life transitions, especially those who feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, people-pleasing, burnout, emotional overwhelm, perfectionism, or difficulty with focus and follow-through.
Many of the people I work with appear to be managing life on the outside while privately struggling with self-criticism, low self-worth, intrusive or racing thoughts, chronic stress, or the mental exhaustion that comes from feeling like you always have to keep it together. Others come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or unsure why life feels harder than it seems to for everyone else.
I also have a special interest in supporting individuals navigating the emotional impact of PCOS and other chronic health or hormonal conditions, including challenges related to body image, fatigue, mood changes, stress, and adjusting to life with an ongoing medical condition. If you've been thinking about therapy but aren't quite sure where to start, that's okay. Whether you're ready to begin or simply have questions about how therapy works, feel free to reach out. I'd be happy to talk with you, answer your questions, and help you determine whether working together feels like a good fit.
I enjoy working with adult individuals and couples, supporting them through relational challenges (such as miscommunication, attachment style differences, and parenting), life transitions (including retirement and career changes, divorce, or becoming parents), struggles with anxiety and depression, and identity exploration. I have a special passion for working with women and LGBTQ+ individuals.
Hi, I’m Mariam Opafunso, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Ohio University and have experience working in both inpatient and outpatient behavioral health settings. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related concerns, as well as eating-related conditions in adolescents and adults.
Outside of my professional role, I value balance and growth, and I show up fully for the people I serve. I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, and I create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and truly heard.
As a holistic dual board certified mental health and family nurse practitioner, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step!
I support my clients in navigating depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma, men’s mental health, and the complexities of parenting. My approach is rooted in empathy and evidence-based practice to meet each client’s unique circumstances and goals.
I have worked with youth and families since 2005 and clinically since 2012; across a wide spectrum of settings—including community mental health, outpatient clinics, residential programs, and private practice.
I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Xavier University and am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Industrial/Organizational Psychology, with a focus on the intersection of mental health and workplace well-being.
I’m from the PNW like sunshine, summer bbq, chasing waterfalls, mariners games and growing my garden and winter seasons. I love a good novella good food and family time.
Hello, I'm Cristina. I help people who struggle with high functioning anxiety, people-pleasing, and constant overthinking, even when they appear to have things together on the outside. I also work with those who find themselves questioning their relationships, struggling to set boundaries, or navigating major life transitions such as new relationships, marriage, or becoming a parent.
As a bilingual therapist, I work with teens, young adults, and adults who want to better understand the patterns shaping their anxiety, relationships, and sense of self. Together, we focus on building stronger self-awareness, clearer boundaries, and greater confidence in your decisions so you can move forward with more clarity and self-trust.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with 18years of nursing experience dedicated to improving mental health outcomes and well-being across diverse populations. I am a graduate of Saint Louis State University, Trudy Busch Valentine School of Nursing’s master’s program. My specialties include working with patients struggling with Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), ADHD, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Mood Disorders, Sleep Disorders, Borderline Personality Disorder, Eating Disorders. I take an integrated approach to treatment, focusing on individualized care plans that include medication management and ongoing support
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I approach therapy as a collaborative, relational process grounded in authenticity, trust, and respect. I believe meaningful change happens when individuals feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported, and I strive to create a space where clients can explore their experiences openly without fear of judgment. My work is informed not only by clinical training, but also by lived experience, which allows me to connect with clients in a way that is both empathetic and deeply human.
My therapeutic style is engaged, flexible, and tailored to each individual. I integrate evidence-based modalities including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Through EMDR, I help clients process and resolve trauma and distressing life experiences. In Ketamine-Assisted Therapy, I support clients in accessing new perspectives and reducing symptoms that may feel stuck or resistant to traditional approaches. With DBT, I focus on building concrete skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. I aim to balance insight-oriented work with practical tools that clients can apply in their daily lives.
I believe therapy does not have to feel overly clinical or rigid to be effective. I intentionally incorporate humor, warmth, and relatability into my work, recognizing that moments of lightness can be incredibly grounding and healing. Humor can create connection, reduce shame, and make difficult conversations feel more approachable, while still honoring the depth and seriousness of each person’s experience.
Let's stop the anxiety spiral together! I I work with adolescents and adults. Drop your mask in here and learn to stop apologizing for who you truly are. Feel more comfortables in situations and stop spiraling using practical tools. It's time to stop feeling ashamed how how you think things should be! Anxiety, Trauma, ADHD and creative burnout can be overwhelming. Perhaps your brain won't turn off at night, decision-making feels impossible, or even basic tasks drain your energy. Especially when they show up in every part of life; work, your relationships, kids or parenting. That's okay. We can work with your brain and body.
