Therapists in Fort Myers, FL

Hi, my name is Alecia, I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have lived in Lee County for over 30 years. I work with individuals, couples and families. Life can be a lonely place when you no longer feel yourself or are feeling overwhelmed. Anxiety, depression and traumas can feel like a cinder block on our shoulders. You may wonder how things will change? Change begins with vulnerability. To be vulnerable is to let go of the notion you have to struggle alone.

We have all experienced some rough times recently. Our emotional health has been impacted by the storms of life both literally and figuratively! Maybe you've been impacted by losses related to Hurricane Ian, maybe you have experienced a loss or heartbreak related to a relationship or maybe you are feeling down or anxious due to life's hurts and struggles. I can help you to gain the skills and knowledge that we all need in order to feel the stability and peace that you are searching for today!

Begin the journey...be courageous. Struggling with depression, anxiety, fear, loss, trauma, seeking direction & purpose? This is a safe place to heal & grow. Marriage in trouble and help needed understanding differences, communicating effectively, resolving conflict, learning to laugh and "play" and experience greater intimacy, be empowered to make it great again. Navigating the unchartered waters of parenting and need guidance in the developmental stages, "acting out" teenager, setting boundaries, having realistic expectations and learning to stay connected with your children, or teens come receive guidance, and direction. Family sculpting, psychodrama, relaxation techniques, creativity, and arts used to facilitate healing.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and trained to provide counseling and psychotherapy. What is the difference? Counseling is usually for more solution focused needs and can be short term. Psychotherapy is not advise. We explore deeper emotional issues, identify the causes and work toward a better understanding of yourself so that you can move on and develop healthier ways of coping with life and people. I practice CBT/CPT: Cognitive behavioral/processing therapy which explores how your thought patterns can affect your feelings and behaviors. I find this most useful as it helps people learn to help themselves.

Have you been in search of new ways to manage with life? Stressed, isolated, or having difficulty living your life to the fullest? Struggling with how you see yourself, body image, or your relationship with food? Feeling a deep sense of loss after a traumatic experience? It may be difficult to talk about and we get stuck wishing things were just different. We might be looking for happiness through money, relationships, food, addictions only to reach the point of hopelessness. Finding peace, empowerment, and healing does not have to be a struggle experienced alone.

Are you emotionally drained or struggling to keep going? Do you have worrying or negative thoughts? Does the past haunt you? Maybe it stems from an unhealthy relationship or past trauma. Maybe your emotions feel too intense to manage. Or maybe you're experiencing a recent loss/change in life. You might even be consumed by a fast-paced lifestyle. What if I told you now was the perfect time to take a step back and focus on YOU?

One afternoon I told my wife that after another tour, I would be leaving the U.S. Coast Guard for a very different career. Serving my country and the men and women of the U.S. Coast Guard is one of the greatest honors and privileges of my life. After serving for nine years I knew that directly assisting and serving people is the life-giving work of my heart. I became a Social Worker and therapist because it is my greatest joy and pleasure to support you as you unify all your strengths and gifts to release your Faith, Hope, and Love into society.

Hello! My name is Dr. Vicki Rodriguez (She/Her/Ella) and I want to say congratulations on taking the first step toward therapy! I am a licensed psychologist in the state of Florida specializing in psychological wellness surrounding trauma, reproductive issues, infertility, perinatal mental health, postpartum concerns, difficult birthing experiences, miscarriage, pregnancy and neonatal loss, pregnancy termination for any reason, transition to parenting, and the impact of fertility/pregnancy/loss on relationships.

Welcome! If you have been struggling, and looking to make changes, I would love the opportunity to assist you in achieving your goals.

My therapeutic style is relaxed and I frquently use humor where appropriate! While processing life issues, traumas and other hurts, clients gain new healthier insights on old challenges and learn more effective problem solving for moving forward. Old stale patterns are replaced with heightened communication, effective relationship decisions and can demonstrate the making of smarter life choices etc. If you are feeling stuck, hurt or just need to process any issue, then its time to keep reading and choose to design your life to promote happiness and success.

Helping others has always been a big part of my life. As a licensed clinical psychologist my goal is facilitating the growth of my clients through accurate assessment and therapeutic care of their personal concerns. This may include providing guidance, support, and extensive understanding to those individuals who others depend on. Thus far, my inner passion and natural ability to connect with others combined with my scientist-practitioner experience has allowed me to build solid therapeutic relationships with my clients. Together we foster open dialogue and create a supportive and secure healing environment.

I became a social worker for two reasons; I have a natural propensity to talk with people therapeutically and I enjoy helping people. Traditionally, social workers help people to get where they want to go in their lives and assist them in becoming more resourceful in dealing with stresses in their life. I provide supportive counseling, which assists in the process of clients leaning how to support themselves and offer them the tools they need to become more proficient at navigating the environment we live in.
