Female Therapists in Naples, FL

With over 35 years of clinical experience, I will work with you in partnership to recognize troubling thoughts and turn them into triumphs! Life is filled with new beginnings. It starts by stepping outside your comfort zone and embracing your power and eternal strength. Do you accept yourself for who you are, embracing your strengths as well as areas where you may be insecure? Set your goal to rise beyond judgement, loving all aspects of yourself. Coupled with clinical interventions, I utilize a person-centered, strength-based, solution-focused approach to assist you to live a life worth living.

Making the decision to begin the journey into your own self-care can be overwhelming. I provide a safe, person-centered, and judgement-free environment that welcomes acceptance and healing. Sometimes having a container to "hold space" can be incredibly freeing of the daily challenges we face in life.

Each person’s life is a journey that comes with unexpected twists and turns. My clients are children or adults who need support through transitions, emotional issues, and learning new skills. I provide individualized Applied Behavior Analysis and Clinical Mental Health Counseling services. Each session incorporates opportunities to gain new perspectives and set goals and future hope. Expressive Arts, life coaching, and spirituality are incorporated as requested by my clients. Choosing to seek out therapy for yourself is saying, "I need something in my life to CHANGE." We will work together toward the change you want to see.

Hi! I welcome you to contact me at Time Out Counseling, I am a dedicated counselor working in collaboration with you, tailoring therapy to fit your needs! I know that there are many mental health care challenges, specifically now with our political times; sometimes difficult to manage on your own. I believe you must bring your whole self to the table if you want to create change in your life; your passion, personality, sense of humor, and most importantly your heart will be the impetus for change! All of these interpersonal elements brought me here, to be the voice and advocate for those who need my help. I would like to help you!

I work with the Pride community and others on anxiety, depression, gender identity, and self-esteem issues. We will partner to focus on the issues that are having a direct impact on your daily life and work together to find your balance and peace. Counseling is my career because I genuinely enjoy collaborating with clients on building forward momentum and making sustainable positive change.

As a licensed psychologist, I help clients in individual therapy to gain awareness and understanding of their particular issue. From there options become available and are exercised. Through this continuous process, growth and change occurs. This process is different for each individual and each issue. The goal is to reduce distress and to turn things around so you are managing the issue/mood instead of it managing or arresting you. The types of issues I have expertise in are mood (especially anxiety and depression) disorders, relationship issues, self-esteem, grief/loss, family of origin issues, life changes and personal growth.

I provide professional counseling services integrated with a holistic, bottom-up approach emphasizing the connection between mind, body, and spirit. As a yoga and mindfulness teacher for 18 years, I often incorporate several mindfulness practices into my therapy sessions. As a Certified Imago Therapist, I work with individual couples along South Asian and African American families dealing with issues related to generational trauma to identity formation and assimilation. I am an EMDR-trained and Trauma-informed Yoga teacher. I am a certified nature-informed therapist specializing in equine-assisted trauma-informed therapy.

I view therapy as a collaborative process, as my clients and I work together to identify approaches to improving their lives. By actively listening, providing support and recommendations, then allowing the client to test out new behaviors, we are producing opportunities for new learning and change to occur. I treat adults, both individuals and couples, whose lives are being negatively impacted by depression, anxiety, relationship issues, health issues, and life stress generally. I believe that successful therapy includes supporting and reinforcing clients' strengths as well as addressing problematic symptoms and behaviors.

As a counselor, my role is to empower you, as the client, by applying methods that work best for your situation. A taylored approach is key, and although I am predominately there to gently guide you through the entire process, I feel it is important for me to bring awareness to resistance and incongruance when I feel it is a benefit. Together we can make progress towards your goals as long as you're willing to work hard both in and out of our sessions.

Are you trying to heal from a traumatic or sudden loss? Maybe the loss from a suicide, a tragic accident, a sudden death of a child, spouse, parent? You might still be in shock or disbelief, the tapes of your last moments are on repeat in your mind, or feel engulfed with sadness or even anger. You want to be able to look at pictures of your loved one and smile rather than have your heart break all over again. You want to be present with your family and friends and begin to feel joy again. You want to still feel a connection to your loved one even if it's different than when he/she was alive. We work together to help you live again.

Hello and welcome to my virtual therapy practice! My name is Rachel Nguyen and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Vermont and Florida. I help people learn how to manage, cope and/or heal their anxiety, depression, grief, loss, ptsd, trauma, OCD and other problems mentioned on this page.

Feeling stuck and suffering in silence is painful. It feels like all of your energy is jammed inside and you are spinning in circles. You yearn for a release. A better way to unleash anxiety, bad memories and hurtful experiences. They are deep inside you and you don't know how to get them out. Shame, guilt, low self worth, anxiety, depression and hopelessness feels terrible. You know you need deep healing but have no idea how to get there. I can show you a clear path that is within reach. Are you ready to experience fast, powerful and long lasting relief?

The relationship between myself and the client is critical because a good therapeutic relationship is at the heart of successful therapy. I take the time required to get to know my clients, including each element that distinguishes them, and identifies the goals they hope to achieve through our time together. I recognize that each client is unique and know that it is critical to understand the client’s perspective. I look forward to helping new clients of all ages as I strive to enable clients to realize their potential, skills, and self-worth. I am here to help guide and participate in the process as a catalyst for your change.

We all want to feel connected, right? To feel we belong and are seen, understood, valued and accepted for who we are. Often, how we protect ourselves from our own fears and vulnerabilities keeps us from allowing others to really know who we are. We hide our tender hearts and limit our true selves, for fear of being hurt. However, in doing so, we live "small;" our lives and our relationships can become diminished, unsatisfying, and hopeless. Wouldn't you rather live in truth, shining your brightest light?

I created the Mind Spa in the spirit of providing an accepting and encouraging environment where anyone can achieve a higher degree of mental fitness. Mental fitness is a lifestyle that reflects an ability to approach life's rewards and challenges in a balanced, secure manner, while maintaining a generally positive outlook. Here, adults, children, and families acquire skills to create for themselves a general sense of well-being that can be self-implemented long after treatment has ended.
