I have specialized training in working with pre and post op bariatric surgery patients. I have specialized programs for binge eaters, bulimics and anorexics as well and trauma and sexual abuse for the last 40+ years. This work has been my passion since I was over 450 pounds when I was younger and with the help of special therapists was able to lose over 250 pounds and managed to keep that weight off all these years. I was also sexually abused as a young child which led to the onset of my eating disorder.

When the stressors of life or work are weighing heavy on you the last thing you need is a therapist that lets you sulk in your misery and only listens to you vent about it. When you don't feel good about yourself because of past experiences this approach may not work for you. Wouldn't it be better if you had someone to inspire and encourage you to overcome these challenges through mindset shifts and effective strategies?

Hey there! My practice with clients is guided by a belief in the capacity of humans to heal, adapt, and grow from even the most traumatic experiences or longstanding difficulties when provided a space to connect with the core of who they are. Pain is a universal human condition, but no person is the same and I will work with you in each session to create a therapy that is unique to your experiences, identity, and desires for yourself, and that that supports you in long-term, integrated healing in body and mind.

First, thanks for stopping by. I am truly honored that you are considering me to be such an integral part of your life's journey! My name is Ana and I am a trauma therapist trained in both EMDR and neuropsychotherapy. My practice is founded primarily on the intersection of neuroscience and mental health counseling theories where we use the mind-brain relationship to our advantage to shift into cycles of health and healing. This framework provides a unique overlap between building cognitive and behavioral management skills and addressing trauma and emotions in the physical body to increase resilience and promote long-lasting change.

Hi. My name is Jodi Rabkin-Turner, LMHC, LPC. I specialize in trauma, PTSD and the disorders that come from those issues. I typically work with clients that have depression and anxiety, PTSD, sexual abuse, trauma, substance abuse or any symptoms that occur due to past or present life experiences. I am very straight forward and tend not to beat around the bush. It takes some work to change and get past your issues, so I give out some real life assignments that can be used in the "real world" to help clients to get passed their core issues.

What would you be like if optimism replaced fear? If you were able to view struggles as opportunities for growth? How might this affect the way you see yourself? Could it lead to a decrease in your anxiety or better your mood? We all perceive our lives in story lines. Their plots are created by life experiences, relationships, and societal norms. Sometimes it is these very stories, authored by us, that can make us feel stuck. Imagine experiencing freedom from worry about the thoughts or judgments of others.

You may be unsure what you want from psychotherapy or how it could help. You may know only that you are struggling and wish life could be better. You may want help for a specific issue. Or you may have had therapy before but not seen the changes you want. As President-Elect of the Tampa Bay Psychoanalytic Society, having trained under renowned psychologist Dr. Jonathan Shedler of UCSF and lectured at UC Berkeley on integrating psychedelic experiences, I come with perspective and technique not often found in mainstream counseling. My fine art background also informs how we may see your world anew.

Hitting emotional rock bottom marked a turning point. Determined to heal, I sought help.
