Bisexual Therapists in 33707

Are you seeking a therapist who truly understands the nuances of unconventional lifestyles and relationships? I'm here to offer not only affirmation but also invaluable insight, having experienced the challenges firsthand. As an easy-going, friendly, non-judgmental, and entirely open-minded therapist, you can trust me with any aspect of your journey.

Immediate Openings are Available! At East Coast Mental Wellness we take pride in making sure you are receiving the right care and treatment. We try our best to accommodate every need of our clients and offer a safe and comfortable environment. Telehealth and in-person sessions are based upon client interest and clinician availability.

I have experience working with a variety of clients, and my specializations include working with behavioral or substance-related addictions, mood disorders (such as anxiety, depression, and/or bipolar disorder), trauma, and first responders. I strive to help each client set and reach personalized goals through a curious and compassionate framework. I work with individuals aged 15 and above, providing age-appropriate therapy to address unique needs and challenges. I also offer couples therapy to assist couples of all types in enhancing their communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening their relationships.

If you are reading this, I believe that deserves to be recognized; looking to grow and searching for assistance are steps that I acknowledge. I am an open and straightforward person and try to balance giving credit when credit is due with helping people stay accountable and recognize where they can grow (my friends do sometimes get upset when I tell them eyeliner wings are sharp but are sisters, not twins). Positivity and humor are important aspects of my approach, both having a time and place in therapy and life. Every person is unique and it's my joy to get to know your story. I curate an approach appropriate for each client.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or don't know where to turn, hypnotherapy or coaching could be a great option for you. You've already taken one of the biggest steps by searching for someone to help! I can assist you to navigate past your stressors by identifying underlying causes, suggesting coping skills, and offering empathetic support. My mission is to empower individuals to live purposeful and fulfilling lives while nurturing healthy and meaningful connections. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, I help individuals and couples navigate challenges, build resilience, and foster genuine intimacy.

I understand that calling a therapist can be anxiety provoking. There is something inherently strange and nerve-wracking in talking to a stranger about your deepest fears and challenges. But this uneasiness does not exist in my office. I will not blankly stare at you as you delve into your personal history. You will feel heard and understood. During sessions, I engage and interact on an authentic, human level. I provide a safe place for you to reveal your troubles and will help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are seeking.

More than just an intellectual endeavor, counseling is a special experience. It is a place where clients can begin to enrich their own understanding and perspective. When that happens, the nature of their problems begins to change, appearing more as solutions in disguise. When a client then agrees on the ideas or exercises that are helpful, he or she tries them and sees how they work. This often reinforces the desire to improve. The process itself is an exploration and tends to be as interesting as it is rewarding.

I enjoy working with individuals who seek to live happier, healthier lives and recognize that change can only happen by trying something new. Each of us has the power to create better lives for ourselves simply by changing the way we relate to ourselves. Many people never learned as children how to cope with stress and negative emotion. But this is a skill that can be learned in adulthood and that can pave the way for greater happiness throughout our lives. The ultimate goal is to prioritize your well-being and care for yourself by noticing and responding to your thoughts and feelings with compassion and validation.

I am a Registered Clinical Social Work Intern (RCSWI) working primarily with adults to heal the effects of childhood trauma & other adverse childhood experiences. Being raised in abusive, chaotic, or neglectful environments can result in anxiety, depression, panic attacks, self-esteem issues, relationship/codependency issues, addictions & compulsions, and critical judgment toward oneself and others. I see a wide diversity of clients, but as a gay man experienced in working with LGBTQ+ individuals, I'm particularly interested in helping others heal from the compounding wounds of homophobia and other social oppression.

I understand the variety and depth of problems we encounter in living our lives. I know from both my practice and my life, that we can learn new ways to handle the difficult events and situations that life hands us- depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship concerns, loss and grief, questions of identity, body image, trauma concerns and others. I will listen closely to you and will value and respect who you are, where you come from, what your concerns are and what your goals are.

Hi there, and welcome. It takes courage to seek help and finding the right therapist who will validate your experiences and help you grow is crucial. Life is often hard, and you don’t have to go it alone. I am here if you’re seeking to build stronger attachments in your relationships, navigating significant life transitions, processing the pain and complexity of grief and loss, feeling stuck or unsure of your life’s path, or wanting to better understand how your past experiences inform your present-day decisions.

Struggling to cope with a cancer or chronic illness diagnosis? Need help understanding and processing grief or loss? Having relationship issues? If the answer is yes to any of these questions, I can help! I provide a non-judgmental and compassionate space where clients can create long-term positive changes through self-exploration and the development of new perspectives, skills and confidence. In addition to specializing in cancer and illness support, I am also Certified in Thanatology through the Association of Death Education and Counseling, a distinguishing certificate for grief professionals.

I believe therapy is for everyone and can be helpful in many situations including a life transition; exploration of self, relationships, and behavioral patterns; or figuring out how to make desired changes in your life. I provide a warm, person-centered, and strengths-based approach tailored to your individual needs. My aim as a therapist is to provide you a safe, nonjudgmental space to develop personal insight, understand how your experiences have shaped you, and increase your coping skills while empowering you to live a healthier, happier life.

Ellen's diverse work experiences include counseling children, adolescents and adults of all ages. Ellen works from a strength-based perspective and blends multiple principles from differing schools of psychotherapy, including: art therapy, DBT, CBT, positive psychology, and mindfulness. She has worked extensively with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, concerns regarding chronic illness, issues related to self identity, life transitions, and coping with family matters.

“I’m fine” is the one of most common lies we hear. It's ok not to be ok. We are often shamed for being broken instead of asked how we fell apart. For sixteen years I suffered from an eating disorder that ultimately inspired my studies to help others who felt anxious, depressed, and insecure. Trauma is a fact of life but it does not have to be a life sentence. Humans are very resilient. Artwork is just like our ever-evolving journey; we are always learning, growing, and surprised by life. My focus is primarily client-centered; however, I use an eclectic approach to meet the needs of my clients.

Are you struggling with a transition or other difficult situation? Are you having trouble knowing what you want to do next? Life transitions, however unanticipated or unwelcome, provide you with opportunities to examine the choices you've made so far and to create a more satisfying future. Unpleasant emotions (such as anger, sadness, or anxiety) can also provide you an opportunity to reconsider your beliefs and behaviors. Counseling can be the ideal place for you to sort out what you are feeling and want. However, it is vitally important that you find a counselor you like and trust in order to make change possible.

Psychotherapy is a collaborative journey that is rooted in a foundation of trust and connection between client and therapist. My practice is grounded in providing a safe, supportive, non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship with you. Operating from a strength based perspective, I hold the deeply held belief that you have the innate wisdom to heal yourself. We all do. My role is to assist you in identifying your unique strengths and provide support and guidance on your path. In collaboration, we will uncover the unconscious and conscious thoughts and beliefs you hold that may be contributing to dis-ease.

My intention in therapy is to provide you a safe space where you may gain insight and face challenges with greater ease and confidence. I help individuals who wish to move through shame, grief/loss, low self-esteem, relational conflict, anxiety, depression, or trauma. I see the therapeutic relationship as an active process where change can occur. Through this process, I have watched others build self support, identify unhelpful patterns, and connect more fully in their relationships. I offer you a chance to practice the change you seek in a safe supported space.

Life can be messy, and it does not come with a guidebook. Maybe it has been a struggle as long as you can remember, or perhaps there is a certain hurdle you hope to overcome. Having someone to work through problems and difficulties can be a great relief and aid along the journey. I utilize an eclectic approach to therapy designed to meet your individual needs including EMDR, CBT, reminiscence and life review, motivational interviewing, TF-CBT, and mindfulness.
