Developmental Therapy
Guzel Safina
Therapist, MA, MS, NCC, LMFT
Hi, I’m Guzel Safina, a Licensed Therapist (LMFT) and Certified Counselor (NCC), offering online therapy to adults throughout Florida and California. I work with people carrying worry, sadness, and uncertainty, exploring meaning, and the next steps in their lives. My experience in crisis and residential mental health facilities, rehabilitation centers, and private practice has shown me that people often already hold the answers - they just need support uncovering them, understanding the real issues, and exploring new ways of thinking and responding. Having lived in multiple countries, I understand how different life experiences shape perspective. I provide a space that is straightforward, collaborative, and tailored to what you need right now. Please don’t hesitate to text or email with any questions or to schedule a session.
