Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Cindy Yu is a bilingual (English and Mandarin Chinese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of both Florida and Alabama. She is well-trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Bowen’s theory, Gottman Method, CBT, and more. Cindy believes that each client is comprised of unique yet charismatic components such as personal upbringings, religious beliefs, and cultural backgrounds, that all contribute to narrate a cohesive personal story. This fundamental ideology has cultivated her into offering her clients unconditional positive regard and respect, while tailoring her treatment orientations to better serve each client’s individuality. Her passion is to help individuals, couples, and families to understand the misunderstood, to discover hope from the hopelessness, to speak the unspoken, and to seek possibilities through the impossible. Cindy also has a background in the medical field where she has obtained a strong foundational knowledge for medical diagnosis and medications. She understands the intricacy between medical burden and mental health.

Allegra Kartha
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a clinician, I will support you along your therapeutic journey in gaining more self-confidence, awareness, and empowerment. My strengths as a therapist embody being non-judgemental, empathetic, and a supportive, collaborative spirit. As social workers, we meet people where they are, and I aim to be consistent in this through my work. I am here to support you in identifying and deepening your strengths. Many people think of therapy as a place where the therapist provides you with advice and answers. YOU have all the answers you need and already have great strength and potential. In our first couple of sessions, we will spend time getting to know each other. Establishing a good therapeutic relationship is the key to a successful therapy experience. In addition, we will explore what has brought you to therapy, your goals, and how I can best support you in your therapeutic journey. I look forward to learning and uncovering more about your strengths to support you in being the best version of yourself.

JHC Therapy - Judy Hakiel-Calcaterra
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Therapist
I bring a compassionate and empathetic approach in every session that I have. My ability to address a wide range of issues, from daily life struggles to more specific challenges like anxiety, depression, relationship/marriage issues, substance use, and young-adult or family issues, shows that I am committed provided the best care for my clients.
Creating a safe and comfortable platform for my clients is a key aspect of effective therapy. By offering a nonjudgmental space where clients can express their feelings and concerns, I create an environment that encourages openness and self-exploration.
My emphasis on helping clients develop their sense of self, set goals, and work toward personal growth is indicative of my dedication to your well-being.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
I specialize in working with clients from the ages of 14 to adulthood, who are inquisitive, self-aware, and deeply motivated to understand themselves better, improve their relationships, move into a place of self-respect/love, and develop adaptive ways of coping, communicating, and problem-solving. I have worked for many years with children, teens, adults, and families dealing with trauma and change and searching for authenticity, often in a world that values the superficial. Therapy is a process of seeking meaning, managing change, letting go of what no longer makes sense for who we are and what we want, healing, and growing.
I am most suited to help clients dealing with loss, prior childhood trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, identity (in all its manifestations), divorce, self-esteem, grief, and emotional regulation. The goals are different for everyone, yet I believe that we all want to feel more balanced, more joyful, and more healthfully connected with others.
As a psychologist with 25 years of post-doctoral experience, I’ve been exposed to various modalities, settings, and clients dealing with differing issues, life changes, and developmental expectations. I’ve also found that my professional practice has evolved as I’ve matured, raised children, and survived losses and challenges. We are in this together.
