You've been holding it together for your job, your relationships, and your family. But when was the last time someone checked on you? At Elevating Growth, we work with high-functioning adults, college students, young professionals, and high-achieving women and men who are quietly struggling with anxiety, burnout, stress, and the weight of life transitions.

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.

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.

Thoughts Feelings Behaviors Health Services
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
My goal is to help people when they feel like they need a neutral, educated, opinion. I have found that when we feel as if we don't have an answer to our problems, talking to a therapist helps. I take this advice and seek a therapist when I feel stuck. when we have stress at work or home, It can often compound to other areas such as relationships, sleep, and health. Bringing balance back to one area can help to find relief in all the other aspects of our lives. Mental disorders can often complicate this process but with proper care, health and happiness can be achieved by everyone. it is my goal to provide that for my clients.
