I believe changing in small ways can hugely impact your life and affect your happiness. Also, because I believe all sorts of relationships can bring fulfillment and joy, I am neither for nor against marriage.

Robin Kaye Stilwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T.
I am exclusively using a video platform to see clients. It began as a temporary measure during Covid 19, but has worked so well that I have completely transitioned to a virtual platform. Although it may seem like it would be uncomfortable, my clients are very appreciative of the flexibility it affords. There are definitely cases in which in person sessions is a better fit and more appropriate.

Peter Linden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Certified Gestalt Therapist
I offer individual, couples, and group Gestalt psychotherapy to adults ages 25 and older, including autistic adults, individuals with ADHD, learning disabilities, and other neurodivergent ways of being in the world. Many of the people I work with are struggling with anxiety, sadness, loneliness, shame, burnout, overwhelm, relational difficulties, uncertainty, or a persistent sense that they do not quite belong.
Gestalt psychotherapy is a present-centered, experiential form of therapy that helps people deepen awareness of their thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, needs, and ways of relating to themselves, others, and the world around them. Rather than focusing exclusively on insight or problem-solving, we become curious about what is happening right now and what emerges between us in the therapeutic relationship.
During sessions, I may invite you to participate in experiential exercises, known as experiments. Experiments are never imposed; they are collaboratively created and designed to help you explore, express, and deepen awareness of whatever you are experiencing in the moment. This may involve slowing down, attending to bodily sensations, noticing shifts in energy, exploring emotions, examining relational patterns, or giving voice to aspects of yourself that have been pushed aside.
Over time, many people develop greater self-support, emotional awareness, authenticity, and trust in themselves. The goal is not to become someone different, but rather to reclaim and integrate parts of yourself that may have been hidden, rejected, or forgotten, allowing you to live with greater freedom, connection, and wholeness.

Salutaris Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I offer online therapy for adults in Texas, Florida, and Vermont through a secure, convenient telehealth format. Born in Texas and raised in Brazil and Chile, I bring a multicultural perspective to my work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem struggles, relationship stress, LGBT+ issues, identity exploration, and major life transitions. My approach is practical, compassionate, and grounded in real life, drawing from ACT and CBT to help clients understand patterns, clarify values, strengthen boundaries, and build skills they can use outside of sessions. Therapy should fit your life, your context, and your goals—and online therapy can provide a flexible space to begin that work from wherever you are. Free consultations.

Dr. David Ransen
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, CHt
When choosing a counselor, please ask good questions, tough questions. If the answers are vague, old-fashioned, or just plain unreasonable, then move on. Do your homework. This is serious. The choice of a therapist or counselor can never be undone, for better or for worse. You must ask yourself: If a therapist cannot help in a few weeks or months, then why on earth would you expect that you’d get more help by returning again and again?
Most of the psychotherapy and counseling here is informed by “Solution Focused Brief Therapy,” a modern approach that is used by tens of thousands of counselors worldwide. As suggested by its name, this approach is almost always brief (requiring only several sessions). The reason is quite simple. Traditional counseling devotes many months or longer to analyzing problems. This approach can be painful, expensive, and disappointing, for two reasons. First, problems occurred in the past, so there is nothing that can be done about them. Second, problems are the result of behaviors that failed. By contrast, Solution Focused Counseling focuses on solutions that have succeeded for you in the past and will very likely succeed in the future. This fundamentally shifts counseling from discussing what went wrong to what will go right — starting now!
Do you want to create real solutions for your marriage or relationship, quickly, with enduring solutions? Is chronic pain, depression, anxiety, smoking, excess weight or other eating problems, excess drinking, or insomnia robbing you of life’s simple pleasures? If so, get the rapid help you need: just call.

Fort Lauderdale has one of the largest LGBTQ+ communities and most established affirming therapy ecosystems in the southeastern United States, with LGBTQ+-focused practices and therapists well represented across the city and Broward County. The city's affluent waterfront and yachting culture — and its reputation as a destination for wealthy retirees and seasonal residents — create a distinctive therapy clientele that includes high-net-worth individuals navigating relationship complexity, addiction, and the existential weight of leisure-focused affluence. Broward Health and Memorial Healthcare System provide institutional mental health resources for a county of nearly two million people. Fort Lauderdale's large Brazilian and Haitian communities generate demand for Portuguese- and Haitian Creole-speaking therapists, and the broader South Florida recovery community makes addiction treatment and aftercare among the most active practice areas in the region.
