Shareece Cannonier
Psychologist, PsyD
Are you feeling overwhelmed and emotional on the inside? You work hard to create the life you want, but you feel like it might fall apart at any moment. Do others view you as the strong friend or family member who saves the day, but there is rarely anyone who consistently shows up for you? You wonder if you’re a people pleaser, too hard on yourself, and why others don’t respect your boundaries. Is there past trauma that could be affecting your current relationships that you need to process? Unmanaged anxiety, depression, or unhealed trauma can leave you feeling dissatisfied with life.

Yourdeline Sertyl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Many high-achieving adults look successful on the outside but internally struggle with anxiety, overthinking, burnout, or a constant feeling of not being “good enough.” If you’re used to being the strong one for everyone else, it can feel difficult to slow down and take care of your own emotional needs.
I specialize in helping adults manage anxiety, rebuild self-trust, and develop healthier boundaries so life no longer feels overwhelming. My approach combines evidence-based strategies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a supportive, culturally aware style that helps you understand the patterns behind your thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
Through online therapy, we’ll work together to help you quiet the inner critic, strengthen your confidence, and create lasting change so you can move through life with more clarity, balance, and self-compassion.

Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
Hi, I’m Carey Luker, a licensed therapist in South Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Florida. I work with adults of all ages, and I especially enjoy supporting college students, young adults, and people going through career or life transitions.
Starting therapy can feel uncomfortable or even a little scary, especially if you’re used to pushing through things on your own. My goal is to make therapy feel like a safe, relaxed space where you can talk openly, feel understood, and not worry about being judged. You don’t need to have the “right words” or everything figured out before starting.
For over 13 years, I’ve helped people work through anxiety, ADHD, stress from school or work, burnout, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, boundary setting, and those moments in life where you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of what comes next. Sometimes people come to therapy because everything feels too heavy, and sometimes they just want to understand themselves better and feel more balanced again.
My approach is supportive, practical, and tailored to you. I use tools from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, IFS, and neurodivergent-affirming approaches, but more importantly, I focus on creating a real connection where you feel comfortable being yourself.
I believe growth looks different for everyone. Therapy isn’t about having all the answers or getting everything “right.” It’s about having support while you learn, heal, grow, and navigate life a little more gently. You deserve a space where you can slow down, feel heard, and work toward becoming the version of yourself you want to be.

This journey which may already be stacked with scheduling conflicts and feelings of vulnerability can quickly become overwhelming. I provide online sessions for adults across NC & FL. Reach out, we'll schedule a quick consultation call, words on a screen only go so far.
