Talk Therapy-Adults/Teens
There is no coming to consciousness without pain.
-Carl Jung
Life is full of challenges. Obstacles, detours, and even round-abouts are inevitable and often unexpected along one’s journey. Most individuals can benefit from talking with an objective, professionally trained therapist who can assist with processing through current, past, or anticipated future life stressors. While it can take time to build trust and feel safe, many find relief in being able to sort through tough emotions and challenges with another person. Some of the benefits of talk therapy include receiving validation, accountability, and assistance in brainstorming options to resolve concerns and move forward. Talk therapy (also known as traditional psychotherapy) consists of individual, family, or couples sessions depending on the need.
Our wounds are often the openings into the best and most beautiful part of us.
-David Richo
Our therapists have a minimum of a master’s degree in clinical social work, mental health counseling, or marriage and family therapy. Most of our practitioners are licensed therapists in the state of Florida, and we offer reduced fees for therapists working towards independent licensure. We have varying specialties and you will be matched with the therapist most suitable to your particular concerns and needs. Often long-term therapy is not needed and clients are able to accomplish mutually agreed upon therapeutic goals in a reasonable timely manner. In cases of extensive trauma and deeper rooted childhood related issues, therapy can be a longer-term commitment before resolution and peace find their way.
