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.
As a human being, we are designed for relationships and yet all too often hurt in relationships. Healing emotional wounds occurs through a supportive and positive relationship and environment. In addition to secular counseling, I offer faith-based counseling for those who are Christian and looking for counseling that integrates evidence-based therapies with Biblical principles, and does not espouse any specific denomination.
My clients seek to understand and accept themselves and their life experiences. Together we will explore how your past is impacting your present, so you can ultimately move toward a better future.
I work with individuals, couples and families from an attachment and systems perspective, knowing we experience many wounds through relationships but through the right relationships we can also experience healing.
It is important in my work that I allow the client's cultural context inform my treatment.
Hello! Clients often describe me as easy to talk to, down to earth and compassionate. My natural positive energy helps my clients improve their lives by developing better cognitive and emotional skills.
I am a licensed mental health counselor in private practice since 2008.I believe that positive change and growth are possible at any age or stage of life. I will work together with you to identify the challenges you are facing, set goals and develop a plan to reach your goals so that you can find fulfillment and peace.
Hi, I'm Sara Buchanan, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida, and the owner of SSB Counseling Services, based in Jacksonville, Florida. I earned my Master of Science degree in 2023 at the University of North Florida in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling program. I received Dialectical Behavioral Therapy informed training during her practicum and internship. I also specialize in treating eating disorders and body image concerns.
Patient-focused and compassionate Psychiatric APRN specialized in the care of individuals living with Serious Mental Illnesses (i.e., Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Schizophrenia, MDD, GAD, ADHD). I understand the challenges of navigating periods of depression, PTSD, mania, and the uncertainty that can come in between. My mission is to provide supportive, evidence-based care that helps you establish stability, regain balance, and enhance your quality of life.
I take a whole-person approach, offering:
- Thoughtful medication management tailored to your unique needs.
- Therapy options such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and interpersonal and social rhythm therapy (IPSRT).
- Education and guidance to help you recognize early warning signs of mood changes.
- Support for families and loved ones who play an important role in recovery.
My goal is not only to reduce symptoms but also to help you live with greater confidence, stability, and well-being.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Tampa, FL
Searching for couples therapists in Tampa starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, parenting disagreements, or major life transitions. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists, or therapists who list couples-focused approaches such as the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy in their bios.
In a mid-size city like Tampa, you may find a mix of in-person and virtual couples therapy options across neighborhoods and nearby areas. The right match often depends on practical details, including appointment availability, scheduling flexibility for both partners, and whether the therapist offers a brief initial consultation to assess fit. Reading therapist profiles can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions, supports both partners, and approaches relationship counseling, marriage counseling, or couples counseling in Tampa.
Couples therapy in Tampa can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can search for Tampa couples therapy, filter by insurance and preferences, review therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
