“I’m definitely going back. I would tell a friend that’s it’s so amazing to be listened to be heard not to just respond. She is so calm inviting and understanding. It’s like you’re talking to your bestie. I was so reluctant to go back into counseling bc I felt like no one was listening to me. However Dr. Fire has totally changed my mind. I am so happy that I found her.”

Getting to know Phire White

I offer in-person sessions in Westchase, FL. If you are feeling overwhelmed by relationship challenges, emotional stress, or life transitions, you are not alone. I provide a supportive space where individuals, couples, and families can feel understood, gain insight, and create meaningful change. I work with clients navigating relationship and family conflict, communication challenges, emotional disconnection, stress, anxiety, and life transitions. My approach combines clinical, interpersonal, and systemic therapy with a strong commitment to cultural competency, supporting diverse individuals, couples, and multicultural families with compassion and respect. Many clients come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, uncertain, or struggling to express their needs. Together, we build healthier relationship patterns, improve communication, strengthen emotional awareness, and develop practical tools for lasting growth. I hold a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy, and my work is grounded in authenticity, collaboration, and the belief that healing begins when people feel safe enough to be heard. I strive to create a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can be your authentic self. Clients often describe me as compassionate, supportive, and approachable. Therapy is tailored to your goals, balancing practical strategies with space to process emotions, gain clarity, and foster personal growth. We move at a pace that feels comfortable and supportive. I work with individuals, couples, and families seeking healthier relationships, stronger communication, and greater emotional well-being. I welcome clients experiencing relationship or family conflict, stress, anxiety, life transitions, multicultural family dynamics, or emotional overwhelm. You don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. If you're ready to begin, I would be honored to support you as you build insight, connection, and lasting change.
