It's time to put yourself first, and I'm here to help you do that. With my experience working with adults from a diverse population, I understand how difficult it is to prioritize yourself in life which can lead to depression, anxiety, emotional distress, and unnecessary stress.

As a psychologist, my mission is to help my clients cultivate hopeful, meaningful lives. I work with individuals who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBTQIA+ concerns, and transitional stressors. I want to help you manage or overcome negative symptoms, increase your sense of hope, and navigate transitions, whether you are dealing with career changes, divorce, relationship issues, communication concerns, sexual identity concerns, trauma, or loss. My goal is to help you discover your values and strengths so you can live the life you want.
I utilize cognitive behavioral, ACT, mindfulness, trauma-focused, and informed techniques to help my clients toward positive change. I use a relational-cultural lens when approaching my clients. My goal is to provide support and help my clients reach their goals and promote what works best for them to increase meaning, joy, and hope.
Through my work in government, community, and healthcare settings, I have gained significant experience working with diverse populations. I focus on areas of relationships, communication, anxiety, trauma, sexual and gender identity development, cultural/religious conflicts, and depression. I look forward to working with you.
I’m a Licensed Therapist working with clients in California / Florida. Along with my clinical training, I bring lived experience that helps me meet my clients where they're at. Outside of work I enjoy sports, cooking and trying new food, staying active, and getting outdoors—especially hiking—I do my best to live a full life while making sure I have some time to slow down and take it easy.
If you’re here, you’re likely dealing with something that should be manageable—but isn’t.
Maybe you:
• know what to do but struggle to follow through
• feel overwhelmed or burned out
• experience anxiety or panic that shows up at the worst times
• are successful in life, but things feel inconsistent or harder than they should
I work with high-achieving individuals navigating ADHD or executive dysfunction, burnout, anxiety/panic, and relationship challenges—especially when there’s a gap between what you’re capable of and what’s actually happening day-to-day.
The goal isn’t just to “talk things through.”
It’s to help you:
• improve follow-through
• reduce overwhelm
• feel more in control of your daily life
• and show up more consistently in your work and relationships
If you’re not sure where to start, I offer a free 15-minute consultation to help you determine the best next step.
With over 17 years of experience practicing therapy with children and teens in a variety of settings I have extensive knowledge helping children and families overcome mental health challenges. I believe in making therapy fun and engaging for your child. If they are struggling with difficulties at home or school, I can teach them coping skills so they can help themselves feel better. I help parents navigate behavioral challenges and will work with you to rebuild your relationship with your child.
I’m Emily Light, a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Florida
Finding the right therapist in Florida starts with getting clear on the type of support you need. Therapists across the state specialize in a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. Some focus on specific approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), while others take a more integrative approach. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match before you commit.
With more than 22 million residents spread across cities like Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, and Fort Lauderdale, Florida has a large and diverse provider network. Many therapists offer both in-person and virtual sessions, which can be especially helpful if you live in a rural area or prefer the flexibility of meeting from home. When comparing providers, consider what matters most to you — specialty, session format, availability, and location.
Therapy in Florida can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
