Services
Mental Health Counseling
Our licensed therapists provide evidence-based treatment for trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and co-occurring disorders using EMDR, CBT, and DBT techniques. Services include individual, family, and couples therapy for clients aged 3-65+. Specialized programs address child sexual abuse, substance abuse, and gender-affirming care.
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
Physician-supervised ketamine treatments combined with ongoing psychotherapy address treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, and chronic pain. This evidence-based modality requires comprehensive assessment and weekly psychotherapy sessions to ensure safe, effective outcomes for appropriate candidates.
Gender-Affirming Counseling
Specialized mental health services create safe spaces for queer-identifying individuals facing discrimination and mental health challenges. Our affirming approach reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression while promoting self-acceptance through individual and group therapy for youth and adults.
Court-Related Evaluations
Licensed clinical social workers conduct comprehensive psychosocial evaluations for court proceedings, including residential treatment recommendations and expert testimony. Services support family court cases, child welfare matters, and addiction treatment placements with evidence-based documentation.
Professional Supervision
Board-approved supervision programs for Florida LCSWs and addiction professionals combine in-person and telehealth formats. Services include EMDR consultation, clinical skill development, and continuing education workshops on trauma treatment and child development.
