Hi, my name is Laura Amelia and I am a Bilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. I am Dominican and moved to Miami when I was 10 yrs old. I have a wide variety of experiences working with different types of mental health issues but have the most experience helping people who struggle with anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders or have unresolved trauma. My hope is to provide a safe space for you to process your emotions, develop a deeper understanding of your needs, wants and who you are, and help you make progress in your healing journey. I want to help you reach your fullest potential.

Life brings us moments of joy and satisfaction, but it also brings unexpected changes and intricate challenges that make us feel confused, uncertain and overwhelmed. During times of transitions and emotional upheaval, I offer the support and practical guidance to help you find balance again. Through a solution focused, directive and empathic approach my goal is to empower you to make thoughtful decisions. In this process, I focus on your personal strengths and identify unhealthy thinking or relationship patterns that keep holding you back. Our practice offers a safe, comfortable, neutral and nonjudgmental space to discuss your situation and gain a better understanding of yourself.

I specialize in working with young adults, college students, athletes, professional and executives. My experience includes working in an IOP with clients presenting with symptoms of depression, self-injurious behaviors, suicidal ideation/attempt, anxiety, physical aggression, and anger. I provide service with empathy, compassion, and sensitive care in a calm environment. My hope is to help clients regulate their negative emotions and behaviors, gain awareness and insight into their lives, and improve relationships. I work tirelessly to promote mental health, emotional wellness and awareness to every client.

I am a result oriented clinician. Are you ready to find solutions, not just over analyze the past? The ultimate goal of successful treatment is identifying what's not working and what's necessary to resolve it. Solutions require taking action, action, action. Life doesn't happen in our thoughts alone. While healing does require a reflective shift in our subconscious, where most of our pain reveals itself, when we discover the barricades preventing us from showing up in life the way we most desire, we can "clear it" with wisdom. But matching actions is what truly creates transformation. Book your free consult today and lets go!

Hello and Welcome! I have seven years of experience in the mental health field in the state of FL. While, I have worked with clients of all ages, my primary work is with adults, especially from the 20s - 40s age range. My specialty is working with individuals who specifically struggle with general anxiety, social anxiety, low self esteem, relationship issues, life transitions and other everyday issues. I have training in cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), and solution focused approaches. I understand that each person has their own unique situations, so I value giving each person individual plans of action to address their issues.

I understand your pain and frustrations. Do you sometimes feel like you can't express yourself effectively, feel like you have a lack of identity, purpose and limiting beliefs that are holding you back from your calling and destiny if so then I can help. My focus is on helping people process trauma and heal, identify core values and educate clients on the mind, body and spirit connection. I am a no nonsense therapist that is direct and does not accept excuses. Sessions include actionable steps and homework assignments in order to enhance change. Contact me for a 15 minute consult to see if we are the right fit on psychology today.

I can provide you with a safe and nurturing environment to address these challenging times. If your goal is to move forward, I focus on helping and challenging people, not treating a diagnosis.
