My ideal client is someone who recognizes the profound impact of relationship trauma or a recent breakup on their emotional well-being and is motivated to embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery.

I specialize in body-oriented psychotherapy, an experimental holistic approach encompassing mind, body and spirit. My approach is fundamentally experience-based knowledge that attends to an ever-deepening awareness of the interconnections within the self and others. With this knowledge comes the authentic self and more intimate relationships. I utilize a variety of techniques including movements, body postures eye exercises, energy and breath work and releasing the emotions are the path to looking at different chronic behavior patterns, relationship issues and decisions which allows for profound life changes.

ANXIETY and WORRY might already have been hard for you and it's even harder now. Triggered memories you thought you'd moved on from might have also surfaced due to the current state of things. You’d like to feel Clear, Calm, and CONNECTED to the highest version of yourself. You want to feel in control of your thoughts and emotions and show up confidently and authentically with yourself and important relationships in your life. You want to move forward, move through all of this but, we know, it’s hard to do. Our therapists get it AND it IS possible because many of our clients have felt the same way too before coming to us.

LGBT, Relationships/Marriage, Sex, Kink/Fetish, Career Goals, Anxiety/Depression, HIV... Sometimes it can be so easy to sweep things under the rug and deal with it later. The problem is often we have so much going on that we forget to address things that we say we will. This therapeutic practice strongly believes that every person, every situation, and the surrounding circumstances are all unique. Your situation may sound like or seem similar to someone else’s but YOU are the factor that makes yours different, and that’s what the main focus will be; how you can be empowered to explore with me and take solutions into your world.

Coming into a therapeutic environment is courageous and speaks volumes of your strength and resiliency. As quoted by Abraham Maslow, “In any given moment, we have two options: to step forward into growth or to step back into safety.” This is your first step into growth! Therapy is a sanctuary where you can feel safe, seen, heard, and valued. My mission is to provide a calm, empathic, and nurturing environment where you can explore your own narrative.

There's something about taking the first step that makes us uncomfortable but you've made it here! You've probably never fit in with the crowd. Perhaps you're an introvert, a nerd, a rule breaker, the black sheep? I created Born to Fly for you. You have been dealing with mental illness, addiction or simply getting through a life transition. What would life be like if you were able to move forward with confidence and healing? "Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, she became a butterfly."

Dr. John K. Miller is a former full professor of therapy in the US and China and is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the US. He has been in clinical practice for the past 30 years, specializing in individual, couples and family therapy. His philosophy and approach to treatment considers the context in which problems occur and the relationships between the people involved. With this in mind, he will occasionally ask for family and significant others to participate in treatment (only with your consent).

It's so hard to be you isn't it? Being in a relationship and not feeling heard. Your needs not getting met. You're questioning if you should stay or leave. You've tried communicating in every way you can think of or not communicating and letting things "slide", but nothing changes. The frustration and resentment just builds. Before you make the decision to leave or decide to just sweep it under the rug and continue to be in pain, let me work with both of you.

Hello! My name is Jessica and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and hold a Masters degree in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University. I am also a certified Welfare Specialist. I have a wide range of experience and training. I work with children and adults who have recently suffered or are experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and/or addiction.

The purpose of therapy is to take what you have learned and apply it outside. It is not always easy to make changes, and change can be scary, but once you put your words into action, the change can be beautiful. I have worked with people who struggle with substance use issues, depression, anxiety, and families. I have a passion for working with people in the BiPOC community. I want my clients to believe in themselves and what they can accomplish without needing external validation. My goal is for you to feel confident in your decision-making to process your needs/issues without relying on others.

Life is challenging and it is not uncommon for people to feel overwhelmed. Seeking the help of a psychologist can be a powerful tool for overcoming barriers to happiness. Only 5% of psychologists are Board Certified; I am a seasoned psychologist with two Board Certifications (CBT and Addictions), professor, and founder of the Motivational Institute for Behavioral Health. I do evidence-based work, which means more than just chatting about difficulties. We actively work together to better understand behaviors and relationship difficulties, develop goals, and follow through with strategies to achieve positive change.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or anxious with the events in your life? Perhaps, you often feel alone in the company of other people. Or continually find yourself making attempts? Or work on your relationship, yet nothing seems to change? Do you want to build lasting relationships with the people around you? Perhaps you need support as you make a major life transition. As your therapist, we can explore your past; your past holds precious keys to who you are today, and finding those keys can open new doors to show up in relationships differently and not allow the past to dictate your current relationships.
