If you’ve been feeling anxious, stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns, frustrated, or weighed down by self-doubt, you don’t have to sort through it alone. For over 20 years, I’ve helped individuals, couples, and families work through anxiety, conflict, anger, and self-esteem challenges. I’m an LCSW with an MSW from the University of Maryland at Baltimore.

Hi! I'm Elijah. I am a LCSW and work with people navigating Addiction, Mental Illness, Trauma, and Stress. I offer a space that feels safe, respectful, and genuinely collaborative.

Hi there! I'm Sasha. I have over 13 years of counseling experience, 8 of those years as a licensed mental health counselor, providing support for adults of all ages. I received my Masters of Education in mental health counseling from the University of Miami and since have worked with individuals struggling through depression, anxiety, relational issues, PTSD, addiction, and loss of purpose and motivation.

You don't have to have everything figured out to be here.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, and I’ve been helping people work through meaningful change since 2011.

I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and addiction, with a focus on building resilience and a stronger sense of self. I especially enjoy working with LGBTQ+ individuals, those navigating recovery and the HIV/AIDS community. I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts from Southern Methodist University and my Master of Arts in Counseling from Webster University.

My name is Oscar DeBardeleben, and I know firsthand that change is possible because I’ve lived it. As an Army veteran, I’ve faced the kind of life challenges that can feel insurmountable—but seeking therapy was the turning point that allowed me to reclaim my life. Today, I combine that personal resilience with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Social Work background to help others find their way back. Having served diverse communities within the VA and Indian Health Service, I am dedicated to helping you navigate your own path toward a stronger, more confident self.

Are you looking for someone to hold you accountable? Have there been changes in your life that are stressful, overwhelming, and unmanageable? Do you need a safe space to talk and work through tough challenges? Let’s work together to develop solutions to any difficulty that you may be facing and break the negative cycles that are keeping you trapped.

As a therapist with 6 years of clinical experience, I help adults navigate stressful life transitions, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues, all while focusing on a holistic approach that focuses on your emotional, physical, spiritual, and social well-being. My integrative approach is empathetic, collaborative, and strengths-based, as I’m passionate about guiding you toward self-discovery and lasting change, fostering resilience and well-being in your life.

I work primarily with children ages 3–17, offering individual therapy while strongly encouraging family involvement to support lasting change.

I got my start working in a residential setting, supporting people through serious mental health challenges, trauma, and addiction. That experience shaped how I see therapy, it’s not just clinical, it’s about feeling understood and not alone in what you’re going through. I now work with people dealing with things like trauma, emotional ups and downs, and substance use, and I’m trained in EMDR. While I have experience with more intense situations, I also work with people who feel stuck, reactive, or disconnected and want to understand why.

I help military members, first responders, and law enforcement professionals carry the weight of service with more strength, clarity, and support through therapy built around their world. If you’re dealing with trauma, stress, addiction, relationship strain, or the silent pressure of always having to hold it together, you don’t have to face it alone. My goal is to offer a space that feels confidential, grounded, and free of judgment—where you can talk honestly without clichés, forced vulnerability, or someone who doesn’t understand the culture you come from.
