Therapists in Tallahassee, FL

Welcome to Psychological Assessment Group of North Florida (PAGNFL). I am a practicing Psychologist for over 25 years and seek to serve those with mental health needs. I offer a range of mental health support ranging from Psycho-educational Assessment, psychotherapy, counseling, intervention and RTI monitoring, family and marital counseling. Specialization is with children, adolescents, couples and families. I am currently accepting clients who need assessments and or psychotherapy services.

Feeling depressed and hopeless? I'd like to help you get hope back into your life. It's like being in a race that just doesn't end. Leave that race and get into a life that revives you. Marriage in trouble? I can help find ways to keep it together. Family broken by addiction, teenager's anger, or finances? Let's work together to piece it back together. I'd like to help you start today in that long journey back together again.

I became a Marriage and Family Therapist because I enjoy processing with individuals and listening to personal journeys to find a resolution. I was a High School performance art major and find this skill set benefical in providing supports through visual cues using various therapeutic approaches and modalities. I specialize in working with children and families in child welfare. I enjoy working with young children and teens as these are challenging developmental years, trauma and distress from systemic and familial patterns of behaviors, coupled with low parenting, coping, decision-making and problem-solving skills.

You've already succeeded, you took the first step, you reached out to find solutions to the unsettling emotions and challenges you've been experiencing. As a Licensed Marriage & Family/Mental Health counslor and trauma specialist, I work with you collaboratively, advocating and supporting you to strengthen your voice and become more assertively present in your life. I often work with clients that feel stuck, helping them create a life that is vibrant and alive. Imagine being present without needing to numb the pain when triggers or challenges arise. Let me guide you whether as an individual a couple or family.

I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in Florida and Texas with over 15 years experience working as a therapist. I have worked with many clients experiencing a wide range of concerns including depression and anxiety, relationship and parenting issues, work/life balance, trauma, and abuse. My counseling style is compassionate and engaging. I believe as a part of the human condition we all come to face difficulties in life and we are all deserving of respect, empathy, and understanding in our time of need.

I believe that in order for individuals to experience an extraordinary life (a life filled with peace, love, joy, and purpose) they must learn how to heal, protect, and strengthen all three parts of themselves - the soul (mind, will, & emotions), the body, and the spirit. I incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy with Christian, biblical principles to address a complexity of issues within an individual, family, couple, or group that may be preventing them from experiencing physical, mental, and spiritual wholeness. Also, my husband, Adewale Disu, a Certified Life Coach, provides life coaching services to men.

Life in itself is challenging; let me help you learn how to face these moments with strength and love. As humans, we tend to struggle with how to handle adversity and often forget our own resiliency and ability to adapt. "We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty"- Maya Angelou.

Are you struggling to find your place in the world? Whether it's finding purpose, battling depression or anxiety, creating healthy boundaries, or learning healthier habits, I'm here to be your guide. I'm here to help you find your inner strength to build healthier relationships, overcome past trauma, heal your inner child, and achieve your professional and personal goals. Life transitions, traumatic experiences, and new experiences can be difficult and confusing. My heart for helping others struggling with this and those suffering from poor body image has encouraged me to pour my talents into you.

Do you struggle with past trauma? Do you have a hard time with communicating with your family or partner. Do you have a hard time with anxiety or depression. If so, I want to help you help yourself! I want to take a client's personal goals of growth and together we can create a potential treatment plan. I specialize in all age groups from adolescents to the geriatric populations. I have been practicing for over 20 plus years. In that time, I have had the honor in treating those who are struggling with trauma, relational issues with their partners, familial issues, and a multitude of other mental health concerns.

When depression or anxiety takes over and loneliness sets in, it is understandable to feel hopeless. Sometimes even relationships can lead to unhappiness. In therapy, we will work to address these issues. Therapy is a journey of learning about your past and present self. This self-exploration helps open the doors to a fulfilling and meaningful life. I work with clients to help them understand their strengths and struggles, which creates a platform to achieve their goals. In order to do that, I believe that the therapist-client relationship is a partnership and it is central to achieving significant progress.

Hi there. I’m Danica. Have you struggled to trust others throughout your life because something always seems to go wrong in relationships, leaving you feeling hurt, betrayed, or psychologically/emotionally drained? Is it hard to see your way to stable happiness without feeling like the other shoe will drop? Feeling fearful of relationships, lonely, anxious and depressed while others seem to be living their lives with little effort can be disheartening.

My mission over the last 26 years and in developing and opening Comprehensive Counseling Services, LLC is to be able to provide counseling in a way that will reach as many individuals in need. My fundamental view is, “Counseling ought to fit into people’s lives, not interfere.” “Counseling ought to be available to all regardless of any and all emotional & mental health needs.” If you have been turned away before due to your specific needs, including; mental health needs and/or circumstance, the appointment times that just don’t fit your schedule or due to financial concerns, you have my promise that, I will "NOT TURN YOU AWAY".

I focus on helping adolescents, college students, adults, couples, and families discover ways to cope with the problems they face. I believe we all have answers to our problems within us, but may need help in seeing a way through difficult times. I bring a range of approaches to our work together and tailor the treatment to your needs. I strive to provide a safe space for you to explore and be yourself. I have particular experience with treating anxiety, transition stressors, relationships, and depression, while promoting self-discovery. My goal is to help you lead a fulfilling life.

Therapy should provide a safe, nonjudgmental relationship through which to explore those parts of you that may make you feel ashamed or afraid, to develop meaningful insights, and to discover your strengths. I have extensive experience working with people seeking to overcome traumatic life events - sexual violations, abuse, neglect, extreme acts of violence - but have found that, in the end, it can sometimes be the seemingly small, overlooked wounds that take longest to heal. No matter how stuck and hopeless you may feel, you have the power to take control and embrace the person you'd like to be.

There are times in life when it feels like things are simply falling apart. Trauma and life stressors can leave us feeling alone and shattered, but trying to pick up the pieces can be overwhelming. Do you have experiences that you've tried to talk through but nothing helps or maybe the past is too difficult to speak out loud. Have you lost touch with parts of yourself that are creative, joyful and confident? Whether you just experienced a traumatic event or are recovering from years of stress, there is hope and the possibility for change! Mosaic Creative Counseling helps create something beautiful out of these broken pieces.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and a certified sexual addiction therapist-candidate (CSAT-candiate). I am also a committed Christian. My approach is create a warm, relaxed atmosphere with an emphasis on building a strong collaborative therapeutic relationship. I believe that a strong client/counselor relationship is an important element in the counseling process. As a Christian, I believe that faith and a personal relationship with God is an incredible source of strength, comfort and guidance. As a counselor, I work to combine faith and standard treatment modalities in accordance with each client's needs and beliefs.

My primary goal is to help you be the best person you can be. I strive to listen, be present, and to understand what issues you are experiencing and how we can best work together in a collaborative way for you to grow into your best self. There is no one right theoretical approach for everyone. We will explore the tools that fit with your personality because you are the expert of your own life. I am sensitive to folks from marginalized communities and understand the impact of discrimination on mental health.
