I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R), a 500-hour Certified Yoga Teacher (CYT-500), a Level 2 Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner, and a somatic therapist dedicated to helping individuals of all ages heal and thrive. I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults, offering an integrative approach that honors the connection between mind, body, and emotions.

I combine evidence-based psychotherapy with body-centered and experiential approaches, including Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy, yoga, mindfulness, and play therapy for children. This holistic framework helps clients build self-awareness, process difficult experiences, and develop lasting tools for resilience and growth.

I am a clinical psychologist who works with high-achieving individuals facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, cross-cultural adjustment, and difficult family histories. I take a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental approach, helping adolescents and adults deepen self-understanding, build meaningful relationships, and move toward a life aligned with their values. I hold a PsyD from Yeshiva University and have extensive training across medical, community, school, and foster care settings. I also supervise doctoral trainees at The Graduate Center, CUNY, and have offered workshops, talks, and leadership contributions through professional organizations.

Hi, I am Octavia a therapist at Your Voice Matters Therapy. I am accepting new clients so feel free to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. I aim to create a warm, safe, confidential, and judgment-free space for clients. It is important for clients to have such a space to be able to unpack and explore all that is bothering them. I work with clients through a few different approaches such as strength-based, Humanistic, and mindfulness. Therapy is not one size fits all and thus I tailor my work to each individual client. I believe that everyone is the author of their life story. In that story, you may experience many challenges, but know that you do not have to face those challenges alone. Together we can work through those challenges so that you are ready and prepared for whatever other challenges the future may hold. Together we will build a tool kit to help you continue your life story. Do not end it here!

Hi! I'm Rebecca. I work with people in practical ways to change patterns that are happening in their lives, sleep, and physical health. My goal is to work together with you so that you can learn new skills, practice them between our sessions, and feel better faster.

I’m Dr. Lisa Palmer, Clinical Director of The Renew Center of Florida, where I provide compassionate, specialized therapy for individuals, couples, and families. Through both in-person sessions and secure virtual care across Florida, I support clients in finding clarity, healing, and meaningful, lasting change. With advanced clinical training and decades of experience, I help adults and teens work through anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, substance use, relationship struggles, life transitions, and stress-related challenges—always with a focus on restoring balance and strengthening emotional well-being. My therapeutic approach is highly personalized. I draw from a broad range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, mindfulness-based techniques, trauma-focused interventions, and emotional regulation strategies. Together, we identify the patterns that no longer serve you and develop practical, effective tools to support healthier thoughts, improved coping, and a renewed sense of resilience.
