Telena Mcghee, LCSW

Psychotherapist
FL
Hi there, I'm Telena! I believe in real, no-fluff therapy—honest conversations that get to the heart of the issue. I don't sugarcoat or tiptoe around the truth, because growth happens when we face it head-on. My goal is to help you feel seen, challenged, and genuinely supported as you do the work to heal and become the best version of yourself. My focus I work best with individuals ready to look inward—even if unsure where to start. You might feel stuck in negative thinking, overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or unsure how to move forward. Maybe you're navigating a major life transition, questioning your identity or purpose, or untangling the impact of past trauma. My approach I combine the structure and insight of CBT with the empathy and collaboration of Motivational Interviewing. Together, these approaches allow us to explore patterns in your thinking and behavior while honoring your readiness for change. Therapy with me is about walking alongside you as you discover your strengths. My communication style My style is warm, direct, and down-to-earth. I believe in real conversations, not clinical scripts. You don't need to pretend or perform—just bring your full, messy, human self. I'll reflect with you, challenge patterns when needed, and hold space for the hard stuff without judgment. My journey to mental healthcare I've always been someone who listens deeply. Even before I had the training, I found myself holding space for others—offering comfort, asking questions, helping people feel seen. I do this work to create a space where people can show up fully, without judgment or pressure. My goals for you Setting goals isn't about checking boxes—it's about creating a clear, meaningful path forward grounded in your values and needs. We break larger goals into manageable steps, clarify what matters most, and build a plan that feels realistic and empowering. I'll help you track progress without pressure.
