Online Anxiety Therapy in Florida: High-Pressure Lives, Nervous System Solutions

Life in Florida Isn’t Always Relaxing

Between endless sunshine, bustling tourism, and a culture of performance, life in Florida often looks easier than it feels. If you're quietly managing anxiety, perfectionism, or the weight of having to keep it all together, you’re not alone.

Many Floridians juggle nonstop demands—family expectations, climate stress, work burnout—without ever being taught how to regulate their nervous systems or honor their emotional bandwidth. That pressure shows up as irritability, brain fog, panic, exhaustion, or even numbness.

Therapy isn't about labeling you. It's about helping you finally understand what your brain and body have been trying to tell you all along.

Therapy That Meets You Where You Are (Literally)

I offer online therapy for adults across Florida, whether you're in Tampa, Miami, Sarasota, or a quieter inland town. Sessions happen securely over video, in a space that feels safe, private, and fully yours.

This isn’t about fitting into a clinical box. This is about creating a relationship with your anxiety that makes room for curiosity, nervous system insight, and self-trust.

What Makes My Approach Different

Therapy with me isn’t a checklist of coping skills. It’s a living conversation. We explore what works for your brain and your life—and we do it in a way that feels human.

I use:

  • Polyvagal theory to help you understand your nervous system

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for practical, real-world tools

  • Person-centered care so you never feel talked down to or boxed in

You won’t be handed a diagnosis and sent on your way. You’ll be met with warmth, realness, and support that helps you feel a little less alone inside your own mind.

Who I Work With in Florida

I work with high-achieving, highly sensitive adults across Florida who are done pretending everything is fine. Many of my clients are:

  • Neurodivergent (diagnosed or undiagnosed)

  • Queer or exploring identity in some way

  • Burnt out from caregiving, overworking, or people-pleasing

  • Struggling with panic, chronic worry, or disconnection from their body

Most of all, they’re smart, insightful, and secretly terrified they’re too much or not enough. Sound familiar?

What to Expect from Therapy

Our first session will be a gentle, exploratory intake. I’ll get to know what’s bringing you to therapy, what you’ve tried before, and what your nervous system might need in order to feel safe enough to try something new.

From there, we’ll meet weekly to explore your:

  • Internal narratives and thought loops

  • Somatic cues and nervous system patterns

  • Core values, relationship dynamics, and identity questions

  • Personal tools for grounding, reflection, and resilience

You won’t have to show up polished. You just have to show up as you.

Insurance and Accessibility

I accept most major insurances in Florida, including:

  • Aetna

  • Cigna

  • UnitedHealthcare

Sessions are fully online and HIPAA-compliant, making it easier to prioritize your mental health without adding more stress to your day.

Why It’s Okay to Need This

You don’t need a crisis to justify therapy. You need space to feel. To slow down. To stop pretending you’re okay when you’re not.

I work with people who seem high-functioning but feel like a mess inside. Who check every box and still can’t sleep. Who say, "I know what I should do," but can’t seem to do it.

This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about learning what safety actually feels like—in your body, your relationships, and your choices.

Let’s Talk

If you’re ready for therapy that doesn’t sugarcoat, doesn’t judge, and doesn’t feel like another thing to get right, reach out.

I’m a Florida-licensed therapist, and I’m here to help you decode your anxiety, understand your patterns, and build a life that actually feels like yours.
