In Honor of Rudi Johnson 32. Honoring every play. Protecting every mind. After losing Rudi, my mission is clear: to break the silence, end the stigma, and protect the minds and hearts of athletes everywhere. Behind every victory is a story we don’t always see the silent struggles with CTE and mental health many athletes face long after the game ends. We must encourage families to reach out for help for their loved ones, to listen with care, and to speak openly. Together, we can break the silence and end the stigma for Rudi, and for everyone still struggling.

I am currently completing post-graduate certification in adult psychoanalysis through the Florida Psychoanalytic Institute and welcome new patients interested in psychoanalysis.
There is no greater loss than a life unlived. We have one opportunity to make use of the life we have been given–to discover, to experience, and to know what it means to be fully alive, unencumbered by shame, fear, and doubt. Time is precious, and the future is never a guarantee. Who is the person you strive to become but feel ashamed to discover? What is the life you want but feel afraid to have? What untapped potential stirs inside that is overtaken by doubt? Such questions of what it means to be fully alive are central to both human suffering and flourishing.

You’re the one everyone leans on. You’re strong. You get things done. But under the surface, you’re tired of people-pleasing, unclear boundaries, and relationships that leave you questioning your worth. You want peace, the kind that doesn’t come from fixing yourself, but from finally feeling like yourself. Maybe you’re stepping into motherhood, building a business, or just tired of surviving on autopilot. Either way, you know something has to shift. You’re ready to find your voice, heal what’s buried, and live a life that finally feels like your own.

My ideal client is someone who feels stuck between who they are now and who they want to become. They may be carrying the weight of past experiences, struggling with self-esteem, navigating relationship challenges, or questioning their sense of purpose. Often, they’ve tried to push through on their own but realize they need support in creating lasting change. Their needs usually center on having a safe, non-judgmental space to unpack difficult emotions, explore patterns that no longer serve them, and develop healthier ways of coping.

Adults Therapists

Why should adults see a therapist?

Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication.

Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.

How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?

When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder.

It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.

How do I find a therapist who sees adults?

Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
