Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Estero, FL

I’m Diera Woodard, LCSW, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I’m passionate about helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges with compassion, authenticity, and practical tools for real change. My mission is to create a safe, supportive space where you can heal, grow, and reconnect with your sense of purpose and peace.

Clients often describe my style as warm, honest, and empowering. I meet you where you are and walk with you as you develop the insight and tools needed to create lasting change. I believe that therapy should feel like a collaborative conversation — one that helps you understand your emotions, strengthen your coping skills, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling.

As a therapist born and raised in Miami, Florida, within a rich Haitian American and Caribbean culture, I understand the importance of connection, community, and resilience. My heritage has shaped the way I approach healing with warmth, empathy, and deep respect for each person’s unique story. In my practice, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported. Clients often describe me as kind-hearted, understanding, and compassionate. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change and a more fulfilling life, one step and one moment at a time.

Hello! I am Amy and I'm an LMHC practicing in Florida. I have a BS in Psychology from UCF and an MA in Mental Health Counseling from Webster University. I became licensed in February of 2022, but have been providing counseling services since 2017. I have extensive experience in anxiety, depression, life changes, family issues, stress, and substance abuse.

I believe that meaningful therapy begins with feeling seen, understood, and safe, so I want to share a bit about who I am and how I work. I am currently a doctoral student in clinical psychology (PsyD), and I also hold a master’s degree in counseling. My training has included work in a variety of clinical settings, where I’ve had the opportunity to support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. At the core of my work is the belief that people are incredibly resilient, even when it doesn’t feel that way. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being your authentic self, while also gently challenging and supporting you toward growth.

Hi, I’m Miranda, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

I provide supportive, evidence-based care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach combines medication management with a therapy-informed style so you feel heard—not rushed.

I have a special interest in women’s mental health, including pregnancy and postpartum support.

My goal is simple: help you feel better in a way that fits your life.

I'm a Florida LCSW with 4 years helping teens and adults navigate crisis, substance use, and life transitions—whether in hospital, detox, residential, or outpatient settings. I focus on real-world tools, insight, and building lasting confidence.

I believe in people's ability to improve how they think, feel, and act, and to successfully navigate the adversities of life.
