Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Orlando, FL

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Tampa, working with adults and couples who want more than surface-level therapy. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who look like they have it together, but internally feel stuck in patterns, overwhelmed, or disconnected in the relationships that matter most to them.

My background is in relational and insight-oriented therapy, so we focus on understanding what’s underneath, not just managing symptoms. I’m engaged, direct, and collaborative, and when practical tools would actually help, we use them.

I work with anxiety, relationship struggles, life transitions, and emotionally stuck or high-conflict dynamics. With couples, I focus on rebuilding connection, improving communication, and helping each person honestly understand their role in the pattern.

Therapy with me is about more than getting through the week. It’s about actually understanding yourself and changing what isn’t working.

I am a mom, spouse, divorcee, cancer survivor, and I love animals. I am here to listen and to meet you where you are. Your mental health impacts every aspect of your life, health, and relationships. I am trained to treat complex and the most common mental health conditions with an individualized treatment plan. My primary population is adults, including geriatrics.

My name is Alexa Vazquez and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from Florida international University. I specialize in working with individuals and families, supporting them as they navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and parenting dynamics.

Hi! My name is Amelia and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with more than nine years of experience supporting individuals, women, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, parental stress, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions.

I also have a growing professional interest in supporting neurodivergent individuals and families, which has been shaped by both personal experience and additional clinical training focused on autism and neurodivergence. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate emotional stress, caregiving, identity, relationships, and the ongoing recalibration often needed to maintain the steadiness within ourselves, our relationships and the evolving needs of our family system.

I currently provide virtual therapy for clients located in Florida.

I am aware that committing to therapy can seem frightening and intensely overwhelming, and frequently, the absolute hardest phase is making the choice to begin. Despite that, you are here today, effectively launching your vital journey to heal and revitalize. I sincerely welcome the chance to interact with you and explore exactly how I can help you. My clinical method is deeply warm, compassionate, and interactive.

My mission in therapy is to create a space where clients have the freedom to guide the work towards their goals with a collaborate partner who can assist in the self discovery process. I strive to make therapy feel loving and supportive by providing a place where you can start on the journey to connecting with your inner strength. Self care is important, and therapy is a courageous way to give yourself the care and support you deserve.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I believe in prioritizing mental health for all persons as s key to happiness and stability. Congratulations in taking the first and hardest step in seeking mental health treatment. I’ve been practicing for 30 years, but in the last decade, I have been focusing both on med management and individual therapy.

I'm Karina Astigarrabia Ferraz, PMHNP-BC — a Board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner practicing in Florida. Before specializing in psychiatry, I spent years as a Board certified nurse in cardiac intensive care, an experience that deepened my understanding of how the mind and body are inseparable. That background shapes the way I practice: I see mental health as rooted in biology, physiology, and lived experience — not just symptoms to be managed. I believe therapy is one of the most powerful and underutilized tools in mental health care. My work centers on evidence-based approaches — Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Interpersonal Therapy — integrated with a positive psychiatry framework that focuses on your strengths, resilience, and capacity to heal. When medication is appropriate, I incorporate it thoughtfully as part of a broader, individualized plan. Clients often describe me as warm, unhurried, and genuinely curious about their lives. I collaborate with Brain X Dynamics as an independent clinician, sharing a commitment to whole-person, holistic care — including attention to brain metabolism and the biological foundations of emotional well-being.
