Adults Therapists in Polk County, FL
I help both adults and children who have experienced traumatic events and who are struggling with low self-worth to claim back their lives and discover that what happened to them does not define them.
Reaching out for help when others have let you down can feel overwhelming and scary but you are making the right choice! You deserve to have a safe and healthy space to heal and grow. During our time together, you will be met with compassion, empathy and evidence-based techniques to help you achieve your therapeutic goals.

I offer individual and family therapy to adolescents, college students, adults, athletes, and healthcare professionals.
Sometimes, when our emotions feel out of our control, we do things that don’t reflect our values. My goal is to assist you as you work to engage in life more authentically using effective nervous system regulation and increasing skillfulness. I believe that people are always doing the best that they can with the resources that they have, and they also want and need to deal with the hardships of life more effectively - that's where I step in to support, accept, educate, and guide. Some of my areas of specialization include Addiction, Anxiety, BPD, Depression, Identity Exploration, Trauma Resolution, & Relationships and Communication.

I further support children and adults in galvanizing their considerable strengths to love and be content with who they are.
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.

Most of us are taught to hide how we feel, cry alone in our rooms, and then as adults we tend to give and hide too much of who we are.
This isn’t a journey you have to go on alone. Just for a second think about what it would be like to have support. A support that doesn’t judge you. A support that shows up every week and holds a safe space for you to be YOU. Together we will process what’s going on, work through the overwhelm, and find the path that’s right for you.

I provide counseling and therapy for couples, families, adults, teenagers, and children, in both individual and group settings.
My name is Yilmaz Taskin, as a certified Marriage & Family Therapist and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I offer an open-minded, non-judgmental, and empathetic counseling/therapy approach in a safe and supportive environment. Some problems, in our lives, are either self-imposed or imposed on us by other means. What we perceive might be different than reality. Negative beliefs affect us mentally and physically. Misinterpretations and irrational or self-defeating beliefs can create unhappy feelings, self-doubt, stress, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, etc. Problems don’t go away by themselves; we need to resolve them.

Hi there! Are past traumatic experiences impacting your life in negative ways and you have been avoiding talking to someone for fear it will be overwhelming? I understand. I have over 25 years in many different mental health and health settings helping clients overcome the ongoing effects of trauma.

I get it, you want to feel better and to be healthier - mentally, physically and emotionally. But where can you safely turn for help?
