Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
Success is often hindered not by a lack of skill, but by internal barriers. I specialize in helping professionals break through the 'mental ceilings'—like imposter syndrome and chronic performance anxiety—that hold them back. By integrating EMDR and Hypnotherapy, we can address the underlying fears or past setbacks that trigger 'freeze' responses in high-pressure environments. We don't just manage your career; we optimize your psychological resilience so you can lead and perform from a place of confidence rather than stress.

Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Your career plays a significant role in your overall well-being, identity, and sense of purpose. When work becomes overwhelming, unfulfilling, or uncertain, it can contribute to stress, anxiety, burnout, self-doubt, and difficulty maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Whether you're considering a career change, navigating workplace conflict, recovering from burnout, or feeling stuck in your professional life, therapy can help you gain clarity and move forward with confidence.
At Holding Space Therapy, together, we'll explore your values, strengths, goals, and the patterns that may be impacting your professional growth and satisfaction. We work to identify barriers such as perfectionism, imposter syndrome, fear of failure, people-pleasing, anxiety, or unresolved experiences that may influence your confidence and decision-making. Using evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, strengths-based interventions, and trauma-informed care, you'll develop practical tools to manage workplace stress, improve communication, establish healthy boundaries, navigate difficult transitions, and make decisions that align with your personal and professional goals.
We have extensive experience supporting professionals in high-stress careers, including first responders, healthcare workers, and individuals in leadership or helping professions who often carry significant emotional demands. Whether you're seeking greater balance, preparing for a new opportunity, or rediscovering purpose in your work, therapy provides a supportive space to explore your options and build a career that aligns with the life you want to create. A fulfilling career isn't just about professional success—it's about creating a life that supports your mental health, values, relationships, and overall well-being.

Gainesville is home to the University of Florida, one of the largest universities in the United States by enrollment, and the city's character and mental health landscape are overwhelmingly shaped by this—a huge, young student population with significant academic, social, and identity-related mental health needs, supported by one of Florida's most comprehensive university counseling systems. UF Health Shands Hospital provides one of the state's strongest behavioral health services, making Gainesville an important regional resource for psychiatric care across north Florida. The population dynamic creates a city that is both progressive and college-town oriented, surrounded by a more rural north Florida context, and therapists in Gainesville work across a wide range of populations and presenting concerns. Common therapy concerns include academic stress, identity development, anxiety, substance use, young adult life transitions, and the particular challenges of a college community navigating mental health support often for the first time.
