Psychoanalytic Therapists in Miami, FL

Hi there, I am Vason Manonmani. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work, and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Are you still haunted by your traumatic past?

I believe in working with the total person: mind, body, and spirit. I assist clients in finding their own personal strength, wisdom, and enlightenment. I have experience working with neurotypical and neurodiverse individuals, couples, and families struggling with a myriad of issues, including substance use, relationships, anxiety, grief, and trauma. I work with the client’s strengths while helping each to examine themself, their environment, and the relationship between the two. The change is in you. I am here to help.

I am an experienced doctor of psychology and licensed psychotherapist, who specializes in treating individuals across the life span, couples, and families experiencing a wide-range of difficulties. My passionate, friendly and patient approach is aimed at developing a therapeutic relationship with my clients that will inspire hope, help them recognize their strengths and develop the insight and skills to navigate life's challenges. With an understanding and appreciation for the uniqueness of each individual, I recognize that no single approach is right for everyone and strive to integrate various therapeutic orientations and interventions in understanding and helping clients.

I am a clinical social worker providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents, adults, and families. My areas of specialty and interest are LGBTQ-identified people, kids and teens, and people struggling with eating disorders. I value critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and humor within the therapeutic relationship. I treat my clients with respect and acknowledge that they are the authorities of their own lives. I make an effort to emphasize strengths without invalidating very real feelings or minimizing problems. I collaborate with my clients to develop effective and individualized treatment plans to empower them to make changes in their own lives.

I am a therapist/drug counselor/dating coach that is warm and caring. I start with developing an authentic relationship, then proceed to processing your feelings and thoughts with added behavioral tools. Helping you feel accepted, understood, and supported so we can explore and organize experiences and create new ways of coping. My practice is focused on treating young adults who may be facing challenges in their personal, social, or dating life. Therapy is one way of helping yourself not only with discovering the root causes of your behavior, but also to identify one's truth and inner reality.

I am a Licensed Mental Health therapist with 8 years of experience working with different age group clients and a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, trauma, anger management, self-image, suicide, OCD and ADHD.

I am a Licenced Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist, and Psychoanalyst. In a safe and non-judgmental environment, my patients have the chance to understand unconscious motivations, resolve relationship issues and change patterns of behaviors, manage stressors, gain support through major life transitions, and alleviate and manage anxiety and depression. In my clinical work, I utilize a creative, eclectic contemporary approach depending on the individual patient and their needs; but I always approach the clinical work from an integrative/psychodynamic/psychoanalytical perspective.

Hi there, I am Cynthia Harris-Maddox a licensed in Florida with 7 years of professional work experience. I aim to help clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, & coping with life changes. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

From feelings of isolation to managing the day to day stress, there are times when you need help. Working from a holistic perspective, my goal is to always provide an encouraging, empathetic and affirming environment to explore. I'm experienced in aiding those who are struggling with issues of identity (gender, race, nationality, etc.), low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, phase of life issues, career transitions, LGBTQ-related issues, acculturation, and relationship issues.

My name is Dr. Henry Eff and I am a licensed clinical psychologist. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, OCD, and related difficulties such as panic attacks and phobias. In therapy, I work to help my clients better understand the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how re-evaluating these can help achieve individual and interpersonal growth. Creating a safe, supportive, and welcoming space helps clients gain insight, learn coping skills, and make concrete behavioral changes.

We all experience challenging times where we feel overwhelmed, anxious, dissatisfied, exhausted, and stuck. Through a safe and supportive relationship, we will work together to build an understanding of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to help you gain insight on both current and past experiences. Within this exploration, you will develop your emotional resources, alter unhelpful patterns, and increase feelings of self-acceptance and growth. Over time, you will learn new ways to approach problems you are facing and view them through a new lens.

I help clients liberate themselves from obsessive worries and constant self-doubt. I'm non-judgmental, direct, and empathic. I prioritize active listening and problem-solving, tailoring my approach for each client. Therapy allows us to find ways to relieve psychological pain and live a more satisfying life. There's no one-size-fits-all approach. I believe that a trustworthy therapeutic relationship is the foundation of effective therapy. Let’s connect and see if we might be a good fit.

It's my belief to "Keep life simple." Life is stressful enough. Balancing work, family, social life, friends, and relationships can be overwhelming at times. I practice from a harm reduction holistic theoretical orientation. It combines person-centered (respect for autonomy) with CBT/systemic therapy (a critical look at culture and attachments). By identifying wants and needs, I can assist clients with locating triggers and establishing healthy coping skills to alleviate any mental, emotional, or physical stress. I work particularly with parents and clients dealing with ADHD,career choices, pregnancy, self-esteem and accountability.

It's important to me that you feel the space is yours as soon as we start talking, and you feel empowered to discuss whatever is on your mind. Everything you may want to work on is usually all connected anyway, so we work to get at the core of the issues. I help you understand why you feel anxious or depressed yet think shouldn’t be feeling that way. (I assure you there are reasons for why you feel the way you do.) I can help you understand why you push people away when you want them to come closer; why you keep returning to those partners and jobs that crush you. Let's unravel the threads that got you to that point.

I focus on careful assessment and helping those in need of clinical services using a variety of evidenced based approaches. In my practice, I use a variety of treatment modalities such as individual, couple, group, and family therapy depending on individual needs. I have much experience working with psychiatric and behavioral problems such as anxiety disorders, mood disorders, depression, trauma-related disorders and so on. Teaching individuals how to manage and cope with symptoms of grief, marital problems, family conflict, divorce, parenting issues, and other relational problems are additional areas of specialty.

As human beings we have to always be ready to grow. Whether at work, or within our relationships and families, living an empowered life without support is difficult, and living a well balanced life is even more so. Dual trained in organizational and clinical psychology, I help my clients gain the skills they need to live purposeful and fulfilled lives. Whether amidst life transitions, in relationship conflict, struggling with mental illness, just working toward goals or overcoming character deficits, I help families, couples and individuals make effective decisions, live fulfilling lives, and thrive within tremendous opportunities.

Distressing moods, behaviors and relationships are often associated with painful feelings and self criticism. Inner conflicts and feeling undeserving are often outside awareness and yet have a devastating effect on one's quality of life and relationships. Sometimes no matter how hard one tries, the same things happen over and over again causing immense frustration and even despair. Building a vitalized life experience is what is needed and this is done by removing the often perplexing barriers to feeling the inner freedom to choose how you want to love, work and play.

If you are like most people, you think that your problems are like your cross to bear. I am here to tell you that it's not true. Life can be much more enjoyable. All of us have issues to be resolved with others and with ourselves, and it can be done. Therapy can help you reflect and resolve your conflicts in a safe and confidential setting. You will feel more secure in yourself, able to relate to others in a loving and peaceful way and to tackle your life with confidence and optimism.

In my practice I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families. I work with children ranging in age from 2-adolescence. In my work with children I am able to to assess current social/emotional developmental functioning, along with play therapy intervention and parent coaching. I play a very supportinve and theraputice role wit the families of the children with whom I treat. I currently treat adults, as well, in both individual and couples therapy. I have experience working with a wide range of issues and personal struggles that people in our community are experiencing.
