Therapists Beginning With W in Florida

My name is Hara Wachholder and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida.

Entering into therapy is a big step, and I feel that an important aspect of helping you to comfortably make this step is providing a safe and supportive therapeutic environment. People begin counseling because they want something to shift or change in their lives. I facilitate positive change by encouraging exploration, processing relevant issues with you, and helping you to identify healthy and unhealthy coping mechanisms in your life with the purpose of changing those that are not adaptive.

I have been practicing Marriage and Family Therapy and individual therapy since 2005. Marriage is a bond that is often difficult to keep together as a couple goes through difficult times.

Your well-being is the foundation that serves you in life and self-care can often fall to the bottom of the list.

Reaching out for support is not always easy and getting the support you desire is the highest priority.
