It also includes guiding couples to have better communication, resolve conflict, overcome issues related to trust, and gain deeper intimacy.

"I focus on helping people feel and live better; to help you overcome what seems insurmountable. In 20 + years of experience, I have seen different populations with a variety of problems and needs. I believe individuals hold the keys within to make the changes they seek. I offer a supportive and caring environment to help you take small steps towards resolving the pain, sadness or feelings of being overwhelmed. Relief from depression/anxiety, release from alcohol and drug addictions/legal involvement or managing behavior and adjustment issues requires change. And change begins with one small step."

"I work from a relational and insight oriented approach. I believe that we were all created for connection and that our woundedness often gets in the way of this connectedness, whether it be to God or others. Deep, intensive counseling can help heal this woundedness so that connections are more honest, genuine, and whole. It should also leave you with a deeper sense of self and identity, so that you can interact in healthy ways with the world around you."

""Loving ourselves through the process of owning our own story, is the bravest thing we will ever do" ~Brené Brown. It takes incredible strength and courage to initiate the therapeutic process. Welcome! It is my mission to offer quality therapeutic services to all, regardless of race/ethnicity, religious affiliation, gender identification, sexual orientation, or economic status. I am passionate about supporting individuals through the struggles and successes that undoubtedly unfold over the chapters of one's life. The foundational components of my therapeutic approach are mindfulness, authenticity, vulnerability, self-compassion, shame-resilience, and non-judgmental transparency."

"As human beings, we all face challenges and problems. Counseling is a space for anyone to explore their lived experiences. Many of the problems we face in life are relational in nature. This could involve relationship with another person or relationship with a group, team, system, or even relationship with oneself. As a relationally oriented therapist, I come alongside children, adults, couples, and families to explore relationship and whatever issues are arising. "

"As a psychoanalyst in training and a Professor of English at the University of Florida, I offer in-depth, compassionate therapy that seeks to promote growth and change through understanding the root causes of your current problems.

My business partner is a fully trained and certified 100 lb Labrador Retriever. His ability to connect with my clients is astounding, and he shares his love unconditionally."

"In the most basic terms, my professional interests are in the areas of health, identity, and personal growth. My approach is integrative and tailored to the client's needs.

"**Not accepting new clients at this time.** Too often we are unable to fully experience our potential in life because we are in pain, feel stuck, or are struggling with difficult emotions. During these times it can be hard to gather the strength needed to move forward. My approach is humanistic, interactive, and collaborative in nature. I trust that a secure and trusting therapeutic relationship has the potential to facilitate tremendous growth and emotional repair. As one moves toward healing my hope is that our work together will empower you to be able to make the meaningful changes you would like to see."

"I believe the cornerstone of creating change is a strong therapeutic alliance..an affirmative working relationship between client and therapist. Our past is a part of our current functioning, in that behaviors and attitudes that once helped us survive can sometimes become outdated and problematic. Therapy is one way to help people "revise" their survival tools and live a more enriching and fulfilling life."

"www.lissafriedman.com - I like to help people find the deep knot of their pattern, gently lovingly untie it, and bring healing to the wound. I have been a therapist for about 30 years, and in private Practice since 1987. While my style is eclectic, it is my warmth, compassion, and acceptance that underlie all of my work. I try to provide an environment, much like a container, for my clients to open to their own natural self compassion and acceptance. Seeing each person as whole, rather than deficient provides an environment for people to come to a natural place of healing."

"After years of therapy and hundreds spent on books, it was one brief moment with Isabell that changed EVERYTHING! She opened a door that I had closed for years. Aspects of my life were revisited, put into a new perspective, allowing me to find the freedom and happiness I had been missing for years. Her keen insights and ability to facilitate unfinished business, puts her in a position to transform lives and she does just that.
