Healing Space Therapy Collective
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-QS, CST
At Healing Space Therapy Collective, we believe therapy should feel both grounding and transformative. Our practice was built on the idea that meaningful mental health care requires depth, warmth, and clinical skill—not just coping strategies, but real understanding.
We work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, relationship stress, communication breakdowns, intimacy concerns, and life transitions. Many of our clients are thoughtful, high-functioning adults who appear “fine” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck internally. Others are couples who love each other but feel caught in repeating patterns they don’t know how to change.
Our therapists are trained in psychotherapy and sex therapy and provide identity-affirming, kink- and ENM-aware care. We balance compassion with thoughtful feedback, helping clients gain insight, build emotional regulation skills, and strengthen their relationships. Sessions are collaborative, intentional, and tailored to your goals.
We offer secure online therapy throughout Florida, making it easier to access consistent, high-quality mental health care from wherever you are. Whether you’re seeking clarity, reconnection, healing, or growth, we’re here to support lasting change—not just temporary relief.

Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
Therapy is not a one size fits all discipline. As an experienced therapist I recognize that adaptability is key. Your provider must be able to move within the space of the session with you as things present. This is where my experience & our rapport becomes invaluable. In my practice I strongly believe this space is for and about you. Our dynamic is intended as a tool to heal with compassion, intentionality and humor. When we can laugh we will.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Have you ever thought, "I know why I do this... so why do I keep doing it?" Many of my clients have been to therapy before, gained valuable insight, and learned coping skills, yet still find themselves repeating the same emotional and relationship patterns. If you're ready to move beyond understanding yourself intellectually and get to the root of what's keeping you stuck, I'd love to help.

Mary Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe healing begins when you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted without judgment. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, explore your experiences with honesty, and build the confidence to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Holding Space Therapy, I understand that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable. Whether you're living with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, burnout, grief, or the effects of chronic stress, you don't have to navigate it alone. I strive to meet each client with compassion, curiosity, and respect, recognizing that every person's story is unique.
My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Together, we'll work to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, process difficult experiences, develop practical coping strategies, and build a stronger connection with yourself and the life you want to create.
I have extensive experience supporting adults from diverse backgrounds, including first responders and their families, healthcare professionals, LGBTQ+ individuals, and members of BIPOC and Latino communities. I am committed to providing culturally responsive, affirming care where your identity, values, and lived experiences are respected and honored.
Healing isn't about becoming someone different—it's about reconnecting with the strengths that have always been within you. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel supported, challenged when appropriate, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels safe and sustainable.
