Affordable Mental Health Therapy in Florida

We offer 3 FREE therapy in Florida

Then “pay what you can program” offering sessions between $25-$50.

As part of our reduced-fee internship program, we offer 3 free therapy sessions to clients who commit to continuing care beyond those initial sessions.

Clients are asked to:

  • Commit to attending a minimum of 6 sessions

  • Select a fee between $25–$50 per session, beginning with session 4

  • Pay a $50 deposit, which is applied toward the cost of your 4th and 5th sessions (or otherwise forfeited)

  • For all therapy services all individual MUST be located in FLORIDA at the time of any therapy session. Please confirm you are and will be in Florida.

After the first three free sessions, a standard rate of $25 per session will be charged unless a different amount is agreed upon within the sliding scale range.

This policy helps ensure consistency and supports our student therapists in meeting the clinical hour requirements for licensure.

Many people are often unable to obtain mental health services due to lack of insurance and high out of pocket cost.

At Therapy for Cycle Breakers, it's important to us that everyone has access to affordable therapy services. Through our counseling internship program, we are able to make this a reality and offer low cost for therapy sessions. Select pro bono slots available. These are full length, 50 minute long sessions that will help get you or your loved one to a better mental state. We offer both in person sessions at our office in Largo, Florida or virtually throughout all of Florida.

Meet Melany!

Counseling Student Intern

Supervised by Jennifer Vincent, LMHC, QS

Availability: VIRTUAL ONLY

Mondays: 10:00am-6:00pm

Wednesdays 11:00am-4:30pm; flexible upon request

I'm a graduate in the Professional Counseling Program at FIU. I help people who’ve become really good at pretending everything’s fine. Maybe you live with chronic pain or an invisible illness, or maybe it's more emotional, like anxiety or burnout. If you’ve been pushing through with a smile, I offer a place where there’s no need to hold it all in.

I specialize in supporting teens and young adults dealing with difficult medical experiences, family stress, and neurodivergence. Sessions feel like real conversations, not stiff or clinical. There's room for the hard stuff, but also for humor, honesty, and just being yourself.

We'll work on tools to manage energy and flare-ups, cope with trauma, set boundaries, and handle school or work when life feels unpredictable. I also help with managing stress, quieting that inner critic, and reconnecting with what brings you joy.

Outside of sessions, you can find me re-watching Fleabag with my adorable little fleabag (my Yorkie, Monkey!), getting lost in a good story-based video game, or enjoying a warm blueberry muffin with a nice cold iced tea. 

Rates:

3 free session then “pay what you can” program from $25-$50/session.

Family therapy is $50/session.
