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.

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.

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.
