I work with college students and young adults who are struggling to adjust to college life, feeling lonely, having difficulty making friends, or feeling like they don’t quite fit in. I help students manage anxiety, navigate relationship and roommate stress, and build confidence in social and academic environments. My approach focuses on helping students develop healthier communication, emotional regulation, and stronger connections. I provide an affirming, supportive space for LGBTQIA+ students and those exploring identity, belonging, and relationships during this important stage of life.

Well, if you are here, welcome! I am Stacey. I know it’s a journey to find the right therapist, and I’m glad you found your way to TheraHope. Most of my clients tell me, "You really get me" because I understand that being a student right now is heavy. We will work together to navigate the symptoms that weigh you down - like a racing mind or total shut down but also the daily drama with friends, parents and partners that drains your battery. If you are carrying past trauma, we will work together to navigate that negative self-talk and truly understand the "why" behind how you are feeling. We will create a game plan at your pace. My goal is to help you stop just "surviving" the semester and actually start feeling like yourself again. I really do care about my clients and I hope you decide to join this therapy road with me! Reach out today!

A lot of the students I work with are in the middle of figuring things out. They may be adjusting to college, navigating changing friendships and relationships, balancing academic and personal responsibilities, or trying to manage anxiety, depression, and the pressure that comes with major life changes. I have a special passion for supporting women and female-identifying students as they navigate concerns like self esteem, identity, relationship challenges, boundaries, stress, and the many transitions that come with young adulthood. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, questioning your next steps, or struggling to prioritize your own needs, therapy can be a place to feel supported while building confidence and resilience. Through WellQor, I provide online therapy that can fit into a busy student schedule, and WellQor accepts most major insurance plans to help make care more accessible. I enjoy helping women develop healthier coping skills, strengthen their sense of self, improve relationships, and move through life's challenges with greater clarity and self compassion. I believe most people are doing the best they can with the tools they currently have. Therapy can be an opportunity to develop new tools, gain perspective, and better understand the patterns that influence your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. My role is not to tell you what direction to take, but to help you feel more confident navigating your own path. If you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or simply looking for support during a challenging season of life, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. Together, we'll create a space where you can slow down, reflect, and build the confidence to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.

As a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 20 years of experience, I have worked with individuals from many different backgrounds and life stages, helping them navigate challenges related to stress, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and personal growth. Throughout my career, I've worked in a variety of settings, including military and veteran healthcare, behavioral health programs, and private practice, which has given me a broad perspective on the many ways people experience and respond to life's challenges. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and rooted in evidence-based care. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable exploring your experiences, gaining new perspectives, and developing skills that support your well-being both now and in the future. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply looking for support during a period of growth and change, I strive to create an environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.

One of the greatest joys I have in life is the privilege of walking beside clients on their journey to healing and wellness. I work hard to provide clients with a safe and comfortable space where they can address the issues of importance to them. I view myself as a fellow traveler whose role it is to collaboratively create a map to get clients where they desire to go. No two clients are the same, and no two maps are the same. Each experience with clients is new and deserves a fresh approach which is based on your needs, not mine. I work hard to get to know you, your story, your goals, your strengths, and your growing edges. I hope each and every client leaves the session feeling heard, valued, and respected. As a Marriage and Family Therapist I work with individuals, couples, and families from a systemic point of view. I work with clients to figure out where the various puzzle pieces fit inside their lives and relationships. I have earned a Masters and PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy, and along the way have taken extra training in a variety of areas. I am a sex therapist, a clinical sexologist, a certified sex addiction therapist, a certified partner trauma therapist, and a Gottman Level 3 trained therapist. I invest in the best training in order to provide you with the best tools. Clients come to me to work on issues of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, anger management concerns, recovering from sexual assault/sexual abuse, and for exploring issues of sexual identity or sexuality issues. I am comfortable working with individuals, couples, and entire families — and I am comfortable working with adolescents and adults. I am in-network with several insurance panels. In working with couples, I primarily utilize the Gottman Method Couples Therapy. This approach to therapy is one of the most well researched and effective approaches to helping couples resolve issues, increase connection, improve communication, and gain a better understanding of how relationships work. When I am not in the office, you can usually find me hanging out at home, tending the garden, collecting eggs from the chickens, caring for our goats, harassing our dogs and cats, or harassing my very patient wife and very tolerant adult children. I sometimes get to play golf (and sadly lose A LOT of balls). And I enjoy working with various local groups such as the Human Rights Coalition of Alachua County, the Human Rights Council, the PRIDE Center, and working to help make our community a safe place for all people. Licensed in or able to provide telehealth services in the following states: Delaware, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Utah, Virginia

Therapy is not always easy. But that doesn't mean it is without joy. In therapy, we get to come to an appreciation of both joy and sorrow that are the consequences of living a fully human life. Through appropriate challenge and support, we are able to expand the range of our humanity and our participation in the world. My approach is grounded in brief psychodynamic models of treatment. I believe that therapy can help make us conscious of the adjustments we have made to cope with our life circumstances and can shine a light on new possibilities towards greater authenticity. I continually seek to improve my own utility as a therapist, and I read voraciously towards that end. My understanding of psychology, sociology, and social work provide not only a foundation for understanding client struggles, but also a basis from which to conceptualize growth and solutions.

Radical Healing is a vibrant collective of diverse healers and activists, committed to inclusivity and social justice. Our approach emphasizes the relationship between individual wellness and social justice – knowing deeply that individual wellness can be better leveraged in a society that is well. We know radical inclusion requires an openness to radical transformation and through ongoing evolution, we can build healthier and more inclusive societies where everyone can be fully human.

I enjoy working with neurodivergent children, teens, adults, and families, including those with autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, and other disabilities. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or struggling with emotional regulation, relationships, school, or daily life demands. Together, we create a neuroaffirming space where clients can better understand themselves, build on their strengths, develop practical coping skills, and find approaches that honor the way their brains naturally work. As an art therapist and former elementary school art teacher, I offer a creative, person-centered approach tailored to each client's needs. I incorporate art therapy, sandtray therapy, play therapy, DBT, CBT, and solution-focused techniques to support emotional growth, self-understanding, and meaningful change. I believe healing happens when people are given space to show up as they are. You don't need artistic experience, perfect words, or everything figured out to begin therapy. If you're looking for a compassionate, collaborative space to explore challenges and strengths, I'd be honored to support you.

You’re used to keeping it together, even when it’s hard. Maybe you're the overthinker, the perfectionist, the one who’s always there for everyone else. But lately, it’s been a lot: anxiety, life changes, big questions about who you are and where you’re headed. Therapy can be a place to slow down, feel understood, and find tools that actually help. I work with teens and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity, and life transitions. My style is warm, supportive, and grounded in trauma-informed CBT. Together, we’ll get curious about what’s going on beneath the surface and build skills to help you move forward. When you are ready to talk, call Gracefully Balanced Counseling at our office number or shoot me an email. We can schedule your free 15 minute consultation, where you can learn more about my approach and if we would make a good fit!

I welcome individuals from all backgrounds. I prioritize working with any and all women, girls, members of the Queer and Trans communities, and expecting parents, ages 15+. As a cisgender white woman I am aware of the privileges I hold and I honor the perspectives, backgrounds, and lived experiences of my clients. I believe in a collaborative therapeutic process and therefore will ask for your input in goal-setting and treatment planning conversations. I will at times offer clinical guidance, but not before hearing what it is you are seeking and hoping to gain from your therapy experience. My work is trauma-informed, person-centered, and strengths-based, aimed at co-creating strong therapeutic rapport. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Mindfulness and Grounding, and Therapeutic Art. Through each of these interventions, I aim to strengthen and empower your voice and provide a safe space to be who you are, without judgment and without expectation.

Starting therapy in college can feel intimidating, especially when you're juggling classes, relationships, family expectations, and trying to figure out who you are and what you want. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, unsure about the future, or like you're supposed to have it all together when things feel anything but. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I work with college students who are navigating things like self-doubt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and trouble setting boundaries. In therapy, we’ll look at the patterns behind what’s keeping you stuck and find practical, manageable ways to help you feel more confident and in control. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I pull from approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and reconnect with what actually matters to you. I’m LGBTQIA+ affirming and committed to creating an inclusive, welcoming space for people of all identities and backgrounds. Whether you’re coming in with a specific concern or just a feeling that something’s off, I’m here to support you through it.

I work with children, families, and adults who may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to move forward. Whether it’s managing big emotions, navigating family dynamics, or finding a sense of self, my clients want to feel safe, connected, and empowered. They come to therapy hoping to build tools, gain insight, and create meaningful change. My approach is client-centered and strengths-based, creating a safe space to explore challenges while building tools to manage emotions, reduce stress, strengthen relationships, and foster growth. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful change that supports healing and resilience. Everyone deserves a place where they can feel heard, valued, and supported. My hope is that therapy becomes that place for you. If you’re considering starting, I encourage you to reach out, I’d be glad to connect and see how I can help.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or just plain down? It's okay to not be okay. Many college students experience mental health challenges, and you're not alone. Our counseling services are here to help you navigate these tough times. We offer a safe and confidential space where you can talk about your feelings, learn coping strategies, and find support.

I want counseling to be a positive and collaborative experience for everyone who steps through my door. I primarily work with adults and young adults to address a variety of symptoms, including ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, intellectual disabilities, OCD, substance use, and more. Together, we will work toward embracing your differences and using your strengths to help accomplish your goals. I use an eclectic approach to counseling, meaning that I use methods from a variety of disciplines based on what will benefit each unique person. Some of the disciplines that I often draw from include CBT, DBT, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing. You are the expert in your own life, I am here to help you reach your full potential and achieve your goals. My ultimate goal is to make you feel safe, comfortable, and free from judgement during our sessions. Creating a space where you can be your true, authentic self is one of my top priorities. I believe that sessions should be a collaborative space full of honesty, genuineness, and even some humor at times.

Seeking therapy is a courageous act of self-care and self-discovery. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or weighed down by past wounds, unwanted thoughts, identity questions, relationship challenges, or the pressures of modern life—including the impact of technology, social media, and AI—you are not alone. I offer an affirming space to explore queerness, neurodivergence, multicultural identity, intergenerational pressures, and systems that weren’t built with you in mind. I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, warmth, and deep respect for who you are and where you come from. Together, we’ll uncover the patterns shaping your experiences, clarify what matters most to you, and develop strategies tailored to your needs. My goal is to support you in reclaiming your story, honoring your complexity, and building a life that feels authentic, sustainable, and whole. If this resonates, please reach out via email, call, or text to schedule your complimentary 15-minute consultation—available both in person and virtually. When you get in touch, kindly include your name, contact information, and a few dates and times that work best for you. I look forward to being a part of your journey.
