Meet Our Counselors
Dr. Brent Gray
“I am so very grateful for the therapists who helped me discover new life beyond the painful, fearful and lonely existence I once knew. I can confidently say both personally and professionally that it’s never too late to begin again. There are solutions!”
Dr. Shannan M. Cason
"I believe we are all works in progress, that our life experiences shape us and can make us stronger and wiser if we learn to think, manage our emotions, and problem-solve in healthy, balanced ways."
Dr. Norma S. Shearin
“I enjoy working with youth, couples and families. I work mostly with trauma. Because trauma, grief and loss have been a part of my past experiences, I can identify with my clients.”
Alyssa Hanna
“I offer couples, families, young adults, teenagers, and children a supportive and encouraging environment to work towards healing and growth. I walk alongside my clients through the healing process.”
Tracy Paulino
“Therapy can be redemptive. Whether from depression, addiction, marital strife or overall life transitions and hardships – ALL life experiences can be redeemed so that your life and story reflect purpose.”
Jeffrey Bercaw
"There are seasons in life when we can feel broken, when despair is a powerful force. In these moments, men need to feel that there is hope, and that this hope can be for change even in the most painful places of their lives."
Dr. Jason Beaupied
“It is my honor to help people build a bridge from current challenges to a hopeful future. I provide evidence-based therapy, tailored to my clients’ personal needs, and designed to help them experience improved emotions, thoughts, actions, and overall experience. The results can bring lifelong benefits. I’m looking forward to meeting you!”
Tracy Lewis
“It has been my personal experience that everybody deserves a safe space to be able to be introspective with someone they can trust in order to share their pain and struggles. I present youth, single adults, and married couples a therapeutic environment and will actively engage in meeting them where they are in their healing journey.”
Dr. Don McCulloch
"I have had very good success in working with individuals suffering from Anxiety, Depression, and Panic Disorder. I have trained with David Burns the author of “Feeling Good” and “Feeling Great” which is a proven Cognitive Behavioral approach to those and similar problems."
Jill Dagistino
“I enjoy working with a wide variety of clients and challenges. Specifically, my interests center on loss, adoption, grief, and infertility, knowing personally the strain they place on achievements and relationships both in individuals and couples.”
Carrie Ellis
“My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect and compassion. My approach combines person centered and attachment-based approaches as well as cognitive, mindfulness, internal family systems and dialectal behavioral models of therapy. I will work together with you to create a plan to meet your goals and specific needs.”
Dr. Arturo Paulino
“I myself am a product of Life Coaching. Throughout the years I’ve developed a system of support that has allowed me to properly nourish my emotional, physical, relational, and spiritual side and it is the joy of my life to walk alongside people eager to problem-solve.”
Daniel J. Myers
“My wife and I have been married for over 40 years. We had no pre-marital counseling and were left to figure out this wonderful but difficult adventure called marriage without many tools. This has led me to be passionate about equipping engaged couples for God-honoring and fulfilling relationships.”

HOW DOES COACHING DIFFER FROM THERAPY?
Professional Life Coaches serve as collaborative partners who help clients crystalize life goals, and then accomplish them. Coaching is a process of moving from where you are now to where you wish to be in specific areas of your life. It is important to note, Coaching is not therapy, and it not a substitute for counseling services with a mental health professional. Our Life Coaches are trained to identify clients in need of counseling, and refer them to our team of therapists and psychologists.
Each of our therapists are professionally licensed by the state of Florida, and many hold certifications in areas of specialties such as play therapy, EMDR, addictions, etc. Therapists can help clients resolve issues from their past that may be blocking them from moving forward, and causing problems in their present. Therapy can heal deep emotional trauma, family of origin concerns, as well as clinical issues such as anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, abuse, and significant marital or family needs. Therapists are trained to test, assess, and treat significant psychological, emotional, and relational challenges. They work collaboratively with clients and with medical professionals on the client’s behalf.
Will Life Coaching Work for Me?
Coaching makes a difference when two factors are present:
The client is willing to change and grow.
There is a gap between where the client is and where they want to be.
