Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Are you facing challenges in your life? I am a bilingual and bicultural Licensed Mental Health Counselor licensed in Florida with over 15 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I have worked around the world- in Mexico, in the US, in Germany, in Japan, and in US, and worked in a wide variety of settings, including extensive work in community mental health, substance abuse/addictions, child welfare, and with military and veteran populations. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including couples/relationship issues, anxiety, depression, immigration-related issues, abuse and trauma, divorce and separation, and grief and loss, among other things. I have also worked extensively with the Marine Corps in the area of force preservation and suicide prevention, and have worked with other branches of the service as well, both in the US and OCONUS. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I honestly believe we can work together to find solutions for almost any problem and that we can emerge from challenges stronger, and even more resilient.
My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, mindfulness training, and other techniques. I also have incorporated many things I have learned in my travels and interactions with psychology in other cultures and countries into my extensive training. I will tailor our interactions and treatment to help you meet your goals and work collaboratively with you every step along the way.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

Amber Creamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Are you a woman that looks like they have it all together on the outside, but on the inside you feel like you are struggling to hold things together? You pride yourself on being able to do all the things- excel at your career, manage family responsibilities, maintain an active social calendar, and more- but you have lost sight of what you actually enjoy doing. Your life is far from what you envisioned and you are unsure of where to start to get things back on track.
Or maybe you are a woman who experienced something that has been hard to leave in the past. You’ve been trying to hold onto moments of normalcy because it allows you to downplay what happened. In order to feel safe you have sought out control and predictability in your life and relationships. You are afraid of what will happen if you “open the door” to the past although you desperately want to live a life that isn’t shaped by what you have experienced, but you don’t know where to start.
Whether you are dealing with struggles with anxiety, perfectionism, or trauma, I will be with you every step of the way. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where every woman I work with can feel seen, heard, and valued. I will utilize my knowledge, training, and expertise to help you develop the necessary comping skills and accomplish your goals. Through our work together I want to help you learn to live your life more authentically, learn to quiet your inner critic, and live your life boldly without second guessing so you can cultivate a life you love.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Just being a human is challenging. A therapeutic relationship is one that creates a safe space to reflect on who you are and what you experience, learn to relate to those experiences differently, and empowers you to make choices about how you want to be. My work is to support you, build awareness and understanding, and ultimately to help guide you towards living a full, vital, and connected life - as you define it.
