Laura Forcella Spiering

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LIMHP
Are you feeling anxious, stressed, or overwhelmed? Do you struggle with worry, health anxiety, perfectionism, overwhelm, or doubt? Is it interfering with your relationships, sleep, or well-being? If so, you don’t have to pretend you are okay or struggle alone. I know it is hard to make the time for yourself, especially if you're used to caring for others. It is time for you to slow down and focus on your own needs so you can start building the life you want. I’m skilled in supporting clients with anxiety, stress, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), ADHD, and depression to develop better coping skills so that you can attain better balance, increase confidence, and enhance your emotional well-being. You don’t have to keep pretending you are okay or face these challenges alone. I also work with other therapists, caregivers, and helpers who are used to supporting everyone else but are ready for support of their own. Let's work together to help you achieve your goals and live a more fulfilling life. In our therapy sessions, you can expect a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can comfortably explore your thoughts and feelings. There are many reasons we become stuck. Together, we can discover what is holding you back from living your best life.

Dr. Gary M. Forrest

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I specialize in anger, relationships, communication, substance abuse, and compulsions. I believe changing in small ways can hugely impact your life and affect your happiness. Also, because I believe all sorts of relationships can bring fulfillment and joy, I am neither for nor against marriage.

Maureen Karol, LMHC

Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Hi, my name is Maureen and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, in Florida where I have been practicing for over 20 years in both the community mental health arena as well private practice. I have experience in mobile crisis, substance abuse, individual, couples and family therapy in addition to being a qualified supervisor for licensure for the state of Florida. I would like to first give you an idea of who I am and how I tend to approach not only therapy but life in general. My motto is to help my clients “make life simple again” by taking the issues at hand and breaking them into manageable parts. Often times, people become overwhelmed by what is going on in their lives because emotion has skewed their perspective and has created anxiety and stress toward that issue/situation. I view my role as being a guide to helping the person reevaluate the concern/issue in a more objective way in an effort to break it down into manageable parts. When situations or concerns are broken down into objective manageable parts then the feelings of being overwhelmed dissipate and decision making becomes easier. I view therapy as just a learning experience that at times can feel uncomfortable and at other times feel very empowering. I use humor a lot in my sessions because it’s not only fun but also allows for a sense of levity throughout the process. Also, please know that you are the driver of this bus and I am simply your co-pilot. What we talk about or don’t talk about is entirely up to you and it is my goal to always have an atmosphere of respect and safety so that you feel at your most comfortable to be able to share what is going on for you. I look forward to working with you and seeing where the bus takes us.

Cassandre Charnel

Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Have you experienced trauma, abuse, relationship challenges or loss? Do you struggle with codependency? Do you have difficulty setting healthy boundaries? Do you want to build self-esteem and confidence? Have your attempts to create meaningful changes in your life been met, repeatedly with short-term- success? Are you losing hope with the prospect of a prosperous meaningful future? Hi! My name is Cassie, and I'm a Christian, faith-based therapist licensed in Florida and Ohio and located in the sunny (and sometimes rainy!) state of Florida. The questions posed above speak to challenges many of us are regularly faced with but may find it difficult to speak about. Instead, we may find ourselves harboring feelings of shame and guilt which blocks us from pursuing and receiving the help we need. My practice is exclusively dedicated to supporting those who wish to incorporate their Christian faith into the therapeutic process. I am passionate about serving Christian clients who are seeking support in navigating life’s challenges through a Christ-centered perspective. I believe in the power of faith to guide healing, and I am honored to walk alongside individuals who desire therapy that aligns with their beliefs. Ultimately, my desire is to help you reach a place of freedom and peace, where you can begin experiencing incremental yet impactful improvements to your overall wellbeing so your life and relationships can bear the fruit they were always meant to. I believe there’s hope for everyone, even those feeling utterly defeated in this season of their lives. If you’re here, then take it as evidence; the time for healing is now.

Jerrod Johnson

Psychologist, PsyD
Being human means having anxiety, doubt, and painful experiences, but it also means having the capacity to grow, heal, and choose how we want to live. I work with people who want to better understand what’s getting in the way and start living more fully as the person they want to be.

Jennifer Morales

Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I work to meet clients where they are on their mental health journey. You can expect a welcoming, supportive, relaxed, and at times humorous environment where you can share thoughts, feelings, and ideas openly without fear of judgment. My goal is for clients to feel like they are moving forward, and even though there may be speed bumps, they can look back and see meaningful progress.
