Michelle Pereira
Licensed Mental Health Counselor Florida -
If you came this far, I applaud you for taking the time to invest in yourself and experience what life has to offer, once you take the steps to put yourself first and setting healthy boundaries to live a life full of happiness and abundance that you will create with the proper guidance.
Hi, name is Michelle Pereira and I provide unique Telehealth psychotherapy services, specially tailored to everyone’s needs. A little bit about me: I was born and raised in Brazil and I made the United States my permanent home in my teenage years, 24 year ago to be exact. During my early adulthood, I spent most of my time traveling the world, experiencing different cultures, customs, environments, religions, languages and careers that shaped me to be the person and therapist I am today. I am a United States Navy veteran, a parent, a partner, a daughter, a friend, an entrepreneur, student pursuing a Doctorate degree in Natural Health and most importantly, I am a human being full of compassion who gets it, life is hard and no one should face any challenges alone. This is why I created my mental health counseling practice and named it Creative Minds & Connections with the tag line “Connecting Minds Alike,” because there is what my work is all about. It is creative and assists clients to learn about themselves by connecting the dots to better cope and free themselves from their traumas, toxic relationships, unhealthy habits, low self esteem, addictions, personality disorders, depression, anxiety, relationship issues and much more. I assist my clients to find their true selves that were hidden for so many years. I provide an eclectic and holistic approach that dig deep into the root of the cause and help clients face their challenges effectively, so they can evolve and move forward with their life. When I am not providing services in the mental health community, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, learning and implementing different techniques in my practice, so I can share with my present and future clients by using the most creative approaches. I cannot wait to work with you and assist you to discover your truest potential. I hope to meet you soon 🙂
