When we feel othered, alone, or hopeless — it's hard to ask for help. Talking to a therapist can help you feel like yourself again. I help my clients discover the root of their concerns through storytelling, reflecting on their values and desires, and understanding in what ways they’ve adapted to being in the world.

It's difficult making the first phone call, booking an appointment and admitting you need help. Whether it's depression, anxiety, a mood disorder or trauma, it's frightening to admit that everything isn't how you want it to be and you don't have all the answers. If you're experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, intrusive thoughts or images, flash backs, numbness or insomnia, there is hope and there is help. I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.

Dr. Renee Clauselle

Psychologist

Virtual • Florida


Hi! I'm Dr. Renee Clauselle. I'm a down to earth psychologist that has been in practice for over 20 years. I am passionate about my client's personal growth. My specialties include, but are not limited to treatment of anxiety, depression, life transitions, attachment styles, self worth, parenting, and more. I'm a former professor at St. John's University and a media psychologist for GMA. Check out some of my appearances on Youtube @dr.reneeclauselle1571.

I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck in patterns they can recognize but struggle to change, such as overthinking, repeating unhealthy relationship dynamics, difficulty regulating emotions, or feeling overwhelmed despite “knowing better.” Many have done therapy before and have insight, but want support translating that awareness into real, lasting shifts. My approach integrates psychotherapy with somatic work to help regulate and rewire the nervous system so change is not just understood but experienced. For clients who feel blocked or unable to move forward, I also offer emerging neurofeedback to support deeper brain based change and neuroplasticity. I work with diverse populations and tailor treatment to meet each client where they are while guiding them toward meaningful, sustainable growth.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Trenton, FL


I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to making high-quality mental health care accessible to everyone, especially individuals in underserved and rural communities. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of caring for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults in homes, assisted living facilities, group homes, and through telehealth.

I believe mental health care should be compassionate, collaborative, and free of judgment. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being yourself. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, grief, or another mental health concern, we’ll work together to build a treatment plan that fits your life, not someone else’s.

I combine evidence-based medicine with a whole-person approach, recognizing that sleep, stress, relationships, physical health, and daily habits all play an important role in emotional well-being. My priority is helping you feel better while empowering you with the tools to thrive long after our appointments.

I regularly work with individuals facing a variety of life's diverse challenges including anxiety/ panic, family-of-origin concerns, depression, maternal mental health, transition to parenthood, trauma, grief/ loss, sexual issues, and career related concerns. I also have a specialization in sex and relationship therapy.

My clients are often seeking a combination of clarity, coping skills, and in general -- more ease and happiness in their daily life. I also have a unique specialization in "relationship therapy for one" where we unpack what might be keeping you stuck or unhappy when it comes to your overall relationship health/ satisfaction.

I have been a licensed therapist for over a decade and received my training at state of the art educational institutes including Syracuse University and other hospital and outpatient centers across NY and Manhattan. I have also sought out ongoing participation in professional clinical consultation groups with some of the most influential therapists and thought leaders of our time. These varied and diverse professional training experiences enable me to provide the best possible care to each client I serve. In addition, I also provide training and mentorship for new therapists looking to specialize in sex and relationship health.

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


If you're struggling with anxiety, identity questions, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others, you're not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by life transitions, family dynamics, cultural expectations, or the stress of navigating a world that doesn't always feel safe or affirming. Others are working through LGBTQ+ concerns, exploring their identity, healing from past experiences, or looking for support as they build healthier relationships and greater self-confidence.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide a warm, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. My goal is to help you better understand what's contributing to your challenges, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that support healing, emotional well-being, and meaningful personal growth. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, relationships, or major life changes, I strive to help you create a life that feels more authentic, connected, and fulfilling.

Therapist

Virtual • Sarasota, FL


Hi, I’m Michael, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 27 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate both difficult and meaningful life transitions.

Whether you’re struggling with stress, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, anxiety, or feeling stuck, I offer a compassionate, direct, practical, and occasionally humorous approach to therapy. My work is grounded in Systems Theory, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), and Cognitive-Behavioral strategies, helping clients better understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that shape their lives.

I have extensive experience working with military families, first responders, and individuals facing crisis situations. My goal is to help you develop greater emotional resilience, stronger relationships, and practical tools that continue serving you long after therapy ends.

I strive to create a judgment-free environment where honest conversations can lead to meaningful change. I offer evening and weekend appointments and can occasionally accommodate other scheduling needs. As a single father, I raised three children over a 15-year period, an experience that deeply informs my understanding of life’s challenges and responsibilities. My Australian Shepherd service dog may occasionally be present during sessions unless you prefer otherwise.
