Mariana Carabantes, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
My passion is to help people going through difficult life transitions. Many events in life can affect our stability; divorce, retirement, grief and loss, illness, accidents, losing your job, or living through a pandemic. Sometimes it's even hard to know why we feel how we feel. I help individuals, and also couples, overcome these difficulties.

Hello, I am Rebecca L. Cohen, EdD, LPC. I love working with people and helping them reach their goals. I have experience working with children, teens, young adults, and adults.

John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
I can make this very easy for you - unless you’re looking for a specific technique the only way to tell if your therapist is a good fit is by being in a relationship with them. This can be virtual or in person, but we’ve known for a long time that the primary determining factor in successful therapy is the alliance. While a resume and creds may be a starting point, I think you’ll find it’s rarely a deciding factor.
-
For therapy to "work" you have to be vulnerable. To be vulnerable you need to feel safe. To feel safe you need to trust. This is the first layer of a deep, intimate, successful relationship that I model. Some people have never experienced this before - the idea that you can be heard, truly and deeply and not be judged, blamed or put in a box.
Walk with me - you're not alone in this.

Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What makes my therapy practice stand out is my commitment to truly meeting each client where they are, with authenticity, compassion, and respect for their unique experiences. I take a neurodiversity-affirming, strengths-based approach that focuses not on “fixing” clients, but on understanding and empowering them. I prioritize building a genuine, trusting relationship, creating a space where clients feel safe to be themselves without judgment. By blending evidence-based strategies with flexibility and warmth, I help clients develop practical tools while also fostering self-acceptance, confidence, and meaningful personal growth.

Cape Coral is one of Florida's fastest-growing cities, a sprawling canal city in Lee County whose rapid expansion has been driven by retirees, seasonal residents, and younger families relocating from higher cost-of-living states. The city was among the hardest hit by Hurricane Ian in 2022, and climate-related anxiety, disaster trauma, and the psychological stress of rebuilding remain significant mental health concerns for many residents. The city's heavily suburban, car-dependent geography means therapy is primarily delivered through private practices and telehealth, as public transit options are limited. Common therapy themes include grief, relationship stress, anxiety, adjustment challenges for new residents, and the mental health pressures of managing life in a rapidly developing, disaster-affected coastal community.
