The Florida Center for Healthy Sexuality
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, CST, CSAT
Being a Sex Therapist, I like potential clients to know that I deliberately create a safe, non-judgmental environment both online and in person. My dream is for sex and relational health to be honored and easy to talk about, and for the myths and realities of what is possible to come to light.

Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges by providing a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where they feel heard and understood. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each client’s unique needs, using evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to help clients overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, and difficult life transitions. My goal is to help clients develop practical coping skills, process past experiences, and create meaningful change. For those who desire it, I also offer Christian counseling that integrates faith into the therapy process.

Pathway To Grace Therapy & Wellness, LLC
Pre-Licensed Professional, MS, MA, CTP, RMFTI
I have experienced life as a mother, wife, military spouse, and woman navigating life’s transitions, challenges, grief, and loss while pursuing my own dreams and striving to become the best version of myself. These experiences, along with my genuine calling and gifting to walk alongside others, led me to become a helping professional.
My desire to encourage, support, and empower others inspired me to pursue the education and professional training necessary to serve with competence, integrity, and compassion. My faith keeps me grounded and humble, while my personal experiences continue to deepen my empathy and understanding for those facing difficult seasons.
If you are looking for someone to journey with you through life’s challenges, celebrate your victories, and support you as you grow into the person you are meant to be, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can begin one of the most meaningful investments you will ever make: becoming the healthiest and most authentic version of you!

Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
I believe that healing isn’t about being 'fixed'; it’s about rediscovering the person you were before challenges told you who to be. My practice is built on the belief that a safe, non-judgmental space is the ultimate catalyst for change. Here, we move at your pace, trading 'shoulds' for self-compassion. Together, we’ll navigate your unique story with a blend of professional expertise and genuine human connection, ensuring you feel seen, heard, and empowered to lead a more authentic life. Your journey will not be alone.

Lauren Rothstein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I became a therapist because I believe in the power of human connection and the deep healing that can happen when we feel truly seen and heard. My work is grounded in empathy, curiosity, and a deep respect for each person’s story. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions—each client brings something unique, and I tailor our work to reflect that.
Clients often tell me they feel comfortable with me right away, like they don’t have to pretend or hold back. I bring a calm, grounded presence to sessions, and while I am here to support and listen, I am also not afraid to gently challenge when it’s helpful. My goal is always to help you feel more at home in yourself and more empowered in your life. I understand how difficult it can be to take the first step, therefore, you can expect a prompt response from me. If you are interested in a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation, please contact me by phone, text or email.
