Hi there!
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I have an educational background of school counseling and as a teacher. I enjoy helping clients realize their potential while prioritizing their mental health. My counseling focus is with adolescents to adult-aged clients.
Hey there! My name is Nikki :) a little about me is that I view my clients holistically and from a systems lens. I enjoy learning about my clients within the context of their childhoods, environment, and the culmination of their life experiences. I am very familiar with grief and find fulfillment in helping clients process major life changes and transitions. If clients are open, I incorporate spiritual understanding and meaning-making. As an LMFT, I love to assist clients in improving communication with others, especially loved ones, or to assist in boundary-setting strategies. A huge focus of mine is client empowerment and self-love, which extends to how one navigates the world!
Hi, I’m Jennifer McCollum. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida dedicated to supporting families of the fallen and those navigating the complex, high-stakes landscape of profound loss. Whether you are navigating a line-of-duty loss, life as a solo parent, or a significant life transition, I offer a steady, expert hand to help you find your footing in the "messy middle."
I bring over 20 years of experience across clinical, school, personal, and community settings. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and a Bachelor’s degree in Family and Child Development from Virginia Tech, with a concentration in Child Life and Play Therapy. This background allows me to provide both high-level clinical expertise and practical, "real-world" insight into how individuals and families grow, heal, and rebuild after the unthinkable.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, burnout, and life transitions. I understand that even high-functioning, capable individuals can feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck despite doing their best to manage daily responsibilities.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and respected. I believe therapy should feel collaborative and practical — not intimidating. Whether you’re facing ongoing stress, processing past experiences, or seeking greater clarity in your career or personal life, I’m here to support meaningful and sustainable change.
Hello, my name is Arlene and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) I have been working in the mental health profession for 33 years. I have experience working in various areas of counseling settings and have provided counseling for diverse populations that include different ages, genders, and diverse racial, cultural, and LGBTQ backgrounds. Through the years I have obtained knowledge with concerns including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, family/parenting difficulties as well as childhood, adolescent, and young adult adjustments. In recent years I have been trained to work with individuals who have experienced traumatic events.
Admitting life is too much, is hard. Reaching out for help takes courage and is the first step toward change. I provide an environment of honesty, integrity, compassion, and acceptance where you can tell your story openly and formulate a plan for how best to move forward. If you're ready, I'm here to support you every step of the way. I'm a LMHC and have worked in mental health for over 15 yrs. I see adults and teens looking to better understand themselves and ultimately improve their lives.
My own journey into mental health advocacy began when my oldest son was diagnosed with Bipolar I Disorder. As I learned to navigate his diagnosis, I immersed myself in education, support, and advocacy, eventually becoming certified through the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) to teach all of their signature education programs.
During my seven years with NAMI, I served my community by teaching mental health education classes, leading support groups, collaborating with community organizations, and offering seminars aimed at reducing stigma and increasing understanding.
That work inspired me to return to school and deepen my ability to help others. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Florida State University and began clinical practice in crisis intervention and trauma‐informed care at the Children’s Advocacy Center and Emerald Coast Behavioral Hospital. I now have my own private practice providing personalized therapy as well as psychoeducational and therapeutic groups throughout the year. I also continue to educate local businesses and community members through professional seminars focused on compassion, early intervention, and mental health awareness. In addition, I serve as an adjunct professor at Florida State University Panama City.
Beyond my professional life, I’ve been married to my high‐school sweetheart for 37 years, and we have two adult sons. I find joy in spending time with family, reading, studying human behavior, walking on the beach, watching sunrises and sunsets, exploring Pinterest, playing the piano, and creating a warm, welcoming home.
If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to walk alongside you as you discover new possibilities, reclaim your sense of self, and create a life worth living.

I have always had a calling to help and to heal using humor with a shared understanding of this thing, we call life, and the trials that come with it. I'm here to assist clients to understand that there is another side; and on that side there is hope. I graduated from USC, have been trained in several ways to do heal emotional wounds. Together we can work on anything from simple life issues, ADHD, all things to include extreme trauma(s) such as such as domestic violence.
