The problems of mid-life are not easy- the children are growing up and leaving, parents are aging and you are their caregivers, to name a few. Meanwhile, your career is changing, or is in need of a change, and you might have a few new medial issues of your own. All of these, especially if you are experiencing more than one, can lead to feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and stressed-out. Who is taking care of you while you are taking care of everyone and everything else? And when there's still so much to do, how do get the energy to carry on?

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in depression, quick to anger, or frustrated in your relationships — you’re not alone. Many of the people I work with feel like something just isn’t working, but they can’t quite explain why. Often, these struggles come from early experiences where emotions were ignored, dismissed, or too much for the adults around us to handle.
As children, we learn fast: if expressing emotions doesn’t feel safe or accepted, we push them down. Over time, that emotional disconnection can turn into anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, or anger that feels hard to control.

When will it be time for you to be Happy? We so often put off our own needs to care for others. We do so telling ourselves it will get better around the corner...but around that corner, there's always more to take care of. Your needs fall to the bottom of the list. We can worry about arranging and planning so that nothing will be out of place and no one will be unhappy. Even fun things become a source of stress and tension. It feels impossible to keep everything on track and everyone happy.

I am available M-Sa 8am-9pm.
My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck—someone who’s functioning on the outside but struggling inside. They crave clarity, peace, and connection, but don’t know how to get there. They want to feel more in control, build healthier relationships, and reconnect with themselves. They're seeking a safe space to be heard, understood, and supported without judgment. They're often caregivers, professionals, or deeply empathetic people who’ve learned to prioritize others over themselves. They’re ready for change—even if it’s hard—and are looking for someone to walk beside them, not in front of them

You’re likely someone who looks like they have it all together—but underneath, you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. You may be navigating anxiety, burnout, grief, family conflict, or feeling lost in your career. You want clarity, peace, and a sense of control over your life again. You’re ready to understand what’s been weighing you down and learn how to move forward, not by being “fixed,” but by reconnecting with your purpose, values, and strength.

While there are many excellent therapists, the question of best fit is vital. My therapeutic approach honors suffering and difference. Therapy is a place for healing through words, stories, and a trusting relationship. Through this relationship new narrative possibilities arise, as empathy and compassion open a path for creative collaboration. The goal of this approach is relief from old narratives and relationship patterns that no longer serve you. As you develop greater insight and awareness, you gain the freedom to make more intentional decisions about how and who you want to be.

You’re doing everything right—but something still isn’t working. My clients are high-functioning adults who feel stuck in patterns they can’t fully explain. They’re often used to holding it together, figuring things out on their own, and pushing through—but it’s not working the way it used to. They come in wanting clarity, relief, and a different way forward. I help by slowing things down, making sense of what feels confusing, and creating a space where you can think clearly, feel more like yourself, and begin making changes that actually last.

Anger, Depression, Identity, and Vision. These are issues that are running rampant in our communities. They are found in households that make up the Tampa Bay Area. The need is for healing and restoration from a wholistic approach. This means a genuine connection with a Therapist who can truly see the client for who they are, and who they can become. The individuals who I work with want to take ownership of their actions and thoughts. These clients want their life to not be wasted on pain and excuses. Clients who have an appreciation for African American and Hispanic culture would be significant.

How do I find a therapist near me who is accepting new patients?
Finding a therapist who is actively accepting new patients can feel overwhelming, so it can be helpful to narrow your search down as much as possible. Use the Psychology Today Therapy Directory to search specifically for therapists who are in your state and who are accepting new patients right now, so you are not wasting time reaching out to providers who have a closed waitlist. From there, you can narrow your search further by insurance, specialty, and whether you prefer in-person or online appointments. Once you find someone who looks like a good fit, you can reach out directly to confirm their availability and request an initial consultation.
How long does it typically take to get an appointment with a therapist?
Wait times for therapists in the US vary widely depending on where you live. In major cities, the wait can range from a few days to several weeks. In rural or underserved areas, it is not uncommon to wait several months. Wait times can also vary depending on the type of therapist you are looking for. In general, master's level therapists like licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) and licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) tend to be more widely available than psychologists, who hold a doctoral degree. Availability can also differ depending on the specialty you are looking for; therapists who specialize in areas like trauma, eating disorders, or child therapy tend to have longer wait times because there are fewer of them relative to the demand for their specific expertise.
What are my options if no therapists near me are accepting new patients right now?
If you are having difficulty finding a local therapist with availability, there are a few steps you can take. First, consider expanding your search to include online therapy, not just providers in your immediate geographic location. Online therapy has made it possible to see a licensed therapist in your state without needing to travel, and in many cases online providers have shorter wait times than local in-person practices. Second, your primary care doctor can be a helpful bridge while you wait. They can conduct an initial evaluation, provide referrals that may help move the process along, and in some cases connect you with other mental health resources in your area. Third, if your symptoms feel urgent, community mental health centers are designed to serve people regardless of insurance status or ability to pay, and they often have more flexibility for both crisis care and follow-up appointments than private practices do.
