Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Do anxiety, irritability, negative feelings, or self-doubt weigh you down? Maybe you've been to therapy before and even understand why you feel the way you do, but insight alone hasn't been enough to shift your situation. Transformation comes from experience, not just knowing, and it should be something you can feel. My work is experiential and collaborative, helping you explore what's below the surface and access your inner strength and resilience. If you’re tired of chasing a sense of peace that always feels just out of reach, I’d love to help you find something real and lasting.

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.

Dr. Erica Gardner-Schuster
Psychologist, PhD
I am a specialized trauma- & attachment-oriented group therapist committed to helping adults heal, grow and cultivate more fulfilling relationships and lives. In my groups, healing happens in the context of a safe therapeutic community of fellow travelers who can relate, help each other feel less alone, and support one another in making the changes needed to get more out of life. I also use a liberation psychology lens to help group members explore the intersection of cultural and identify factors and mental health and feel more confident and empowered in their lives.
Group therapy can help you find deeper meaning and connection through the practice of authenticity: "letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are" (Brené Brown). By helping you bring your full authentic self into connection, Group can help you transcend loneliness to find more fulfilling relationships. Group can help you lean into your life with more courage, compassion and vulnerability. Group can support your unique journey as you find your way home to where you belong, and to the relationships that sustain you.

Vesna Cvetkovic
Art Therapist, LCAT, ATR-BC
I believe in therapy and the potential for change. I also believe in the importance of finding support when you need it. As a therapist, I value the therapeutic relationship and try to show up for each client fully and take on the responsibility for their progress. Also, as a therapist, I always try to find potential avenues for growth, whether it's getting a certification in cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy, I believe that growing my skillset and sharing it with you is essential. I also encourage you to think deeply about your life and to take actions to create changes that you want to see.
