Grief counselors and therapists in Venice, FL

I am Dr. Marcia Johnson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience in mental health care. My background includes work in hospitals, outpatient programs, crisis stabilization, higher education, and private practice. I hold a Ph.D. in Medical & Urban Sociology and an MSW in Mental Health from Howard University.

I specialize in helping clients manage trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and substance use disorders, including co‐occurring conditions. I also welcome clients who wish to integrate their Christian faith and spirituality into therapy, as I believe healing involves the mind, body, and spirit.

I am a proud graduate of Albizu University, located in Miami, FL. My clinical training includes working with victims of trauma, military and first responders. I provide therapy, crisis intervention, and critical incident debriefing.

Additionally, I provide psycho-educational and full psychological evaluations from age 4-90.

My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. We achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan. I want to walk alongside you and help to empower you. Together, we find hope.

I am dedicated to the mental health field and have been both a therapist and a clinical supervisor. My areas of knowledge include trauma, depression, grief, anxiety, adjustment disorder, substance abuse, ADHD, self-esteem issues, and life transition difficulties. I work with individuals, adolescents, couples, and families.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by a world not built for your brain? I work with neurodivergent individuals, including those with ADHD or high functioning Autism often late-diagnosed, who are tired of trying harder and ready to start trying differently. I provide a space where you don’t have to mask to be heard I also help older adults distinguish between senior moments and lifelong patterns of ADHD. If retirement has removed the structure you once relied on, making it harder to stay organized or present in conversations, we can work together to find clarity. It is never too late to understand your brain and reclaim your happiness.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience supporting individuals through some of life’s most difficult challenges. As a U.S. Navy veteran, I bring a deep understanding of the unique stressors faced by service members, veterans, and their families. My work is centered on helping clients navigate PTSD, trauma, and the emotional impact of major life events with compassion, skill, and respect.

I specialize in trauma-informed care, substance abuse counseling, and client-centered therapy tailored to each individual’s needs. My professional background includes extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, addiction, and major life transitions. As a bilingual clinician, I am committed to providing accessible, culturally responsive care to both English- and Spanish-speaking clients.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, empathetic, and empowering. I integrate evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Narrative Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and trauma-focused interventions to help clients build resilience and achieve meaningful, lasting change.

My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, supported, and understood. Whether you are processing trauma, navigating recovery, or seeking greater balance and clarity, I am here to walk alongside you. Together, we will work toward healing, growth, and a more fulfilling life.

Hi there, I’m Madi. I am a relational therapist who focuses on building authentic connections with individuals and families. I believe that through these connections, we create a safe and effective place for healing.

I work with adults and high school-aged teens struggling with mood disorders, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, thoughts of suicide, alcohol or drug use disorders. No matter the size and scope of your struggle, therapy can help. A willingness to take the first step is all you need.

Compassionate, realistic, and person-centered care is the foundation of my services. Foundationally trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, I believe "walking the middle path" is a guide for so many difficulties we all face. In February of 2020, I attended the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Bootcamp. I had further training in ACT and DBT in 2021.

Anxiety, intrusive thoughts, sadness, substance use, mood swings...so many of us struggle with these. Our culture sends us confusing messages about how to approach these problems. Ignore it? Self-medicate? Try to just fake it? Buy more, consume more, do more? It may be time to stop, examine your life and decide what kind of life you want to be living.

I’m a bilingual (Spanish-English), bicultural Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and therapist supporting teens, college students, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, stress, depression, life transitions, and cultural or identity-related concerns.

As a Black, Jamaican-born psychologist who has lived in the U.S. for over 20 years, I bring a culturally responsive, LGBTQ+-affirming lens to my work. I offer warm, insight-oriented therapy for adults in Georgia and Florida.
