Therapists Beginning With D in Florida

My name is Isis and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida with over 8 years of experience. I have worked professionally as a counselor, school counselor, and motivational therapist. I have worked with clients to navigate a wide range of challenges including anxiety, ADHD, relationship challenges, parenting and family issues, depression, and women's issues. I believe in an integrative approach to therapy. I do not believe in a one size fits all approach. I like to meet people where they're at with techniques that will be beneficial for them.

I utilize evidence based interventions including CBT/DBT Mindfulness. Prior to obtaining my LCSW I worked as a Licensed Massage Therapist and Yoga Instructor, I very much believe in the mind/body connection. If you are ready to set some personal goals and engage in growth, I would love to work with you.

I can help you thrive. As a licensed clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience, I can guide you in learning new coping skills, navigating difficult emotions, and improving your relationships. Together we can work through any unhelpful patterns you might be stuck in. I will help you get through the toughest moments of your life, and help you become your best self. I offer both individual and couples therapy, and work with people of all backgrounds, ages 15 & older. (Hablo español. Trabajo con adolescentes y adultos, y ofrezco terapia individual y de pareja. Puedo ayudarte a superar los momentos más difíciles de tu vida.)

I have provided leadership in program operations for several children's residential facilities and shelters and have supervised clinical therapies in acute residential treatment to those suffering from emergency psychiatric, emotional and behavioral problems, substance and sexual abuse and addictions.

Are you struggling and suffering despite your deepest desire to be happy? Have you suffered from prolonged stress, anxiety or panic attacks? Do you appear outwardly confident while inwardly you feel like a fraud constantly questioning your self worth? Do you have a successful career but still feel unhappy or disconnected from life? In your relationships, do you ever wonder why you keep repeating the same old issues with different people? Do you get angry easily? Do you ever wonder why we don't learn from our mistakes? Are you someone who continues to feel and behave in ways that make you unhappy?

Have you recently thought to yourself: “I don’t know what to do anymore, I hate feeling like this ; Why does no one understand or see all of who I am ; My thoughts are getting harder to control & I’m struggling to show up ; Therapy has never worked so why would it now ; Life feels really hard ; I’ve tried everything but it’s getting worse". If so, I see you, I hear you, & I get it! Starting therapy can feel like a lot or like a last resort, & sometimes that keeps us from reaching out for help. Next thing you know, it’s been years & things are feeling heavier & harder to carry. I'm here to say you don't have to do it alone anymore.

Every Problem has a solution...

​​You've been experiencing sexual issues recently or maybe even for some time. You may be experiencing erectile difficulties or pain during sex. You’ve tried everything you’ve found on the internet but still, it's not working how you want. It's frustrating, isolating, infuriating, and confusing. It may even be difficult to remember a time when things didn’t feel this way. But now, you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to break the pattern and have your body and brain on the same page. You're ready for a more fulfilled sex life. And most of all, you’re ready to feel more connected in your sexuality!

I believe we all set out with intentionality to be our best. Often times, when there is a hiccup along the way, we briefly lose our focus and direction, resulting in an uncomfortableness that requires a little assistance. Is it sadness? Anxiety? Frustration? Fear? Anger? Feeling stuck, confused or undecided? Are there relationship or communication challenges? My goal is to partner side by side with people of all ages to help them get back on course, so they can return to happy, productive, and rewarding lives.

Challenges are a part of life, overcoming them can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. Lifestyle and circumstance changes are possible with the appropriate direction and motivation. I have worked in a variety of settings dealing with a wide range of issues. Thanks to a multicultural background, I have a unique insight to understanding cultural issues that can affect certain behaviors. I also have experience in dealing with depression, grief, trauma, anxiety, as well as substance abuse across all age groups. I work extensively in helping individuals and couples adjust or overcome life stressors.

Do you want to change your life? Are you longing to feel more empowered to be and do what you want to be and do? Have you been trying to achieve a goal, and are feeling stumped, frustrated? I can help you set and achieve your goals faster and easier. Book a session today and be prepared to change your life for the better.

I adore the person who irregardless of the issues wants to grow and discover life beyond his/her personal trauma. He/she quickly ascertains that the trauma is the vehicle to more and better in life. The trauma though real and respected can actually be transformed into a launching pad where having faced his/her deepest pain they become unstoppable and go far in life in personal happiness, deeds of compassion and live lives filled with grace. To live a graceful life , one filled with meaning and purpose. so at the end of the day there is joy and peace is a significant accomplishment.

I believe in being upfront and honest with my clients in a no-nonsense fire-side chat approach. While everyone's individual therapy goals are different, I work with each individual to create a road map to the realistic goals of your choice. I am more than happy to set up a free 15 minute call to get to know each other before our first session.
