Jami Rieffel, LMFT

Founder & Therapist, CoAuthored Therapy

I believe therapy is most powerful when it feels like a story we write together. I bring a collaborative, narrative-based approach to working with individuals, couples, and families. My goal is to create a space where clients feel both supported and empowered to re-author the stories that shape their lives.

I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University, where I focused on systems theory and narrative practice. Over the years, I’ve worked with diverse populations supporting clients through challenges such as relationship transitions, trauma recovery, and identity exploration.

My name is Emma and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida as well as a graduate of Rollins College Master's of Arts in Mental Health Counseling program. I have been in the mental health field for nearly six years. Prior to graduate school, I started as a Crisis Counselor with 2-1-1, answering crisis and suicide calls and providing those in need with information and referrals to community resources. Since then, I have worked with adults and children in an inpatient hospital setting, college students in a college counseling clinic, and now teens, adults, and couples in a private practice setting.

Hello! Thank you for taking the brave step in moving forward in your journey of healing. I hope to provide a space for you to process, explore, and find relief with the thoughts and feelings that have led you to seek support.

Admitting life is too much, is hard. Reaching out for help takes courage and is the first step toward change. I provide an environment of honesty, integrity, compassion, and acceptance where you can tell your story openly and formulate a plan for how best to move forward. If you're ready, I'm here to support you every step of the way. I'm a LMHC and have worked in mental health for over 15 yrs. I see adults and teens looking to better understand themselves and ultimately improve their lives.

I am a psychiatric provider who specializes in working with adults experiencing anxiety and depression, and I’m passionate about creating a space where you feel genuinely seen and heard. My clinical background includes formal training in evidence-based treatments for mood and anxiety disorders, and I have experience supporting clients from diverse cultural and personal backgrounds. I strive to bring both professional expertise and a warm, grounded presence to every session so that you feel comfortable sharing what’s really going on in your life.

As a therapist for 8 years, I believe anything can be accomplished through the right therapeutic approach. It is not about fitting a client into a mold but creating a mold that fits the client. Through this journey, the client is the artist, sculptor, and visionary that recreates the new and repairs the old.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. My approach combines evidence-based practices with genuine human connection to help clients navigate challenges, build resilience, and create meaningful change. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply seeking greater clarity, I provide a supportive environment where healing and growth can occur.

Hi, I’m Stephanie I’m a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida. I work with adolescents and emerging adults (18-30) in navigating life transitions, increasing social connectedness, and breaking patterns that no longer serve them.

Clients should know that I’m down-to-earth, non-judgmental, and a genuine person. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be real—no masks, no pressure, no shame. I bring warmth and care into the room, along with a sense of humor when it’s helpful, because healing doesn’t always have to feel heavy to be meaningful.

I’m also solution-focused and collaborative. That means we’ll spend time understanding what’s going on, but we won’t get stuck there. We’ll work together to identify practical tools, coping strategies, and small, realistic steps that can help you feel better in your day-to-day life. Above all, I care deeply about meeting you where you are and supporting you in a way that feels respectful, empowering, and aligned with your goals.

I am a father, husband, brother, and son. I have experienced great highs and deep lows in this life. I am grateful to help others navigate their lives. I use my clinical experience, education, and personal experience (in that order) as a guide.
