Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
I provide specialized clinical support for the journey through profound loss and bereavement. As a specialist in Grief/Loss Recovery, I offer a high-level, trauma-informed framework to help you navigate the complexities of mourning. By integrating Dr.-level psychotherapy with somatic tools like EMDR, I help you bridge the gap between 'surviving' your grief and eventually finding a path toward renewal and peace.

As a trauma counselor, I'm also a grief walker and equipped to guide you out of the difficult terrains of grief into warm acceptance of your loss. EMDR and mindfulness work really help with grief recovery and since I'm also a body-based therapist I can guide you into warmly welcoming your feelings in so you can release and heal yourself.

Grief
Barbara Magnusson Coffee
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ph.D., LMFT
Grief and loss are an unavoidable part of life. Realizing what is part of natural grief and what is abnormal is helpful in knowing when listening and empathy are enough and when extra help is needed.

Grief
ClearPath Health LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, EMDR, CBT, DBT, TF-CBT,
Even though grieving is a natural process that includes a variety of coping styles, responses and timelines for healing, approximately ten percent of the population suffers from a cluster of grief symptoms that are unrelenting and seemingly unresponsive to treatment. These symptoms, that sometimes last years following the death, include intense yearning and longing for the deceased loved one; preoccupation with the circumstances of the death; intrusive thoughts and images about the deceased; intense guilt; an overriding sense of disbelief; and, a painful inability to find life meaningful in any significant manner without the presence of the loved one. We are trained in a highly researched and effective sixteen week course of Complicated Grief Treatment aimed at helping the person suffering from this syndrome to learn to love in absence and return to a more meaningful investment in life in spite of the loss.

Grief
Amanda Kohl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, CTP
Grief isn’t something to fix or rush through. It’s something to move through in your own time. You may feel waves of sadness, numbness, or even anxiety as you adjust to life after loss. I take a supportive, grounded approach to grief, helping you process what you’re carrying so you can begin to find steadiness while still honoring your experience.

Grief
Felicita Ortiz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Grief does not follow a timetable, and loss can affect far more than our emotions. Whether you are grieving a death, relationship, major life change, or another meaningful loss, therapy can provide a safe place to process what has happened and find a way forward without minimizing what you have experienced. I offer grief counseling in Spanish and English through online therapy across Florida.

April Bieber
Licensed Professional Counselor, CMHC, CPC, LCPC, LMHC, LPC, LPC-MHS, QS (FL)
Grief is deeply personal and often misunderstood. I walk alongside clients as they process loss — of a loved one, a relationship, a dream — and help them find new meaning while honoring what was lost.

Grief
Amanda S. Vaught
Psychologist, PsyD
There are never any words to describe coping with loss and it changes everything around you. Grief can feel so heavy. I am here to help you carry that weight. I will be there with you to help navigate what feels hard to understand and figure out. Grief therapy is grounded in exploring your grief at your own pace—finding ways to honor your loss, understand your emotions, and slowly reconnect with life in meaningful ways.

St. Petersburg has undergone rapid transformation as an arts and culture hub, attracting young creatives, LGBTQ+ residents, and a growing tech community, and therapists here frequently work with identity exploration, life transitions, and the pressures of building an unconventional career in a mid-size city. The city has a well-established LGBTQ+ community centered around the Grand Central District, and affirming therapists are well represented relative to the city's size. St. Anthony's Hospital and Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community. Many St. Pete therapists serve clients across the wider Tampa Bay area, making the region's therapeutic resources interconnected regardless of which side of the bay clients live on.
