Developmental Therapy
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.

Center for Authentic Life & Relationship, LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LMFT, CPCS, CSAT-S, CAADC, EMDR, CSTOP-Candidate
Recovering from PTSD and trauma can feel intimidating, especially when painful memories of abuse begin to surface. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe, steady, and compassionate space where you can begin to process what happened and discover that healing is possible. We can also work together to build healthier coping skills that support recovery and help reduce reliance on addictive behaviors. You do not have to face this alone—take the first step toward healing today.
30 Years Experience
Online in Miami, FL Florida
Miami's identity as a gateway between the United States and Latin America shapes its therapy landscape significantly, with Spanish-speaking therapists and culturally informed care for Cuban, Venezuelan, Colombian, and Caribbean communities in exceptionally high demand. The city's fast-paced lifestyle, high cost of living, and image-conscious culture contribute to elevated rates of anxiety, eating concerns, and relationship stress. Jackson Health System and the University of Miami Health System provide institutional mental health services, while a large private practice community serves Coral Gables, Brickell, Wynwood, and Miami Beach. Many Miami therapists are themselves immigrants or children of immigrants, bringing lived cultural experience to their clinical work.
