My name is Dr. Rochelle Dorney. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (MHC) and Certified Addiction Specialist. I am licensed in Florida, New Jersey, Connecticut, Oregon, and Washington. I obtained my PsyD from California Southern University.

My ideal client is someone who recognizes they want positive change in their life but isn’t sure where to begin. You may feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or even struggle to identify what you need as you start your therapy journey. Together, we create a collaborative and supportive therapeutic experience tailored to your unique goals. In sessions, I use emotional processing, tools such as the Feelings Wheel, and evidence-based psychotherapy approaches. We work to increase self-awareness, process emotions, and develop practical strategies that foster healing, growth, and meaningful, lasting change.

I believe therapy works best when it feels safe, honest, and collaborative. My approach is warm, direct, and grounded in helping you understand not only what you are struggling with, but why certain patterns keep showing up in your life. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, addiction, relationship stress, and major life transitions. Many people come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or tired of repeating the same cycles. Together, we slow things down, identify what is happening beneath the surface, and build practical tools for lasting change. My style combines evidence-based therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) informed trauma work, mindfulness, and a person-centered approach. I do not believe therapy is about judgment, blame, or being told what to do. It is about creating space to understand yourself more clearly, process painful experiences, and begin making choices that align with the life you want. I also bring years of experience working in treatment settings, which has shaped my belief that healing is possible even when things feel complicated or deeply rooted. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, trauma, addiction, or relationship concerns, my goal is to help you feel less alone, more grounded, and more capable of moving forward.

I’m a mental health therapist specializing in personalized therapy journeys, both in-person and online. Your life experience is unique. Your therapy journey should be, too. No single approach fits everyone. We’ll work together to find the right path for your healing. New York: In-person (Rochester, NY) and virtual, Florida: Virtual only

I feel the most important approach to therapy is paying attention to the mind-body connection. I pride myself on seeing the person as a whole instead of different parts or as a diagnosis. Everybody is different, and everybody needs a good, thorough assessment not only to understand the problem, but to see all of the aspects of the person that the problem is affecting. I also find it very important to stay on top of new therapy approaches andor research.

There is often not enough time in the day to accomplish our goals and care for ourselves. Responsibilities and commitments can be overwhelming. Raising children, pursuing career advancement, helping aging parents, retirement, and coping with losses can leave us emotionally depleted. Such stressors and setbacks can feel even more difficult to manage with the state of affairs in the world. These are challenging times and working with a skilled psychologist can help you navigate life with success. I am a clinical psychologist and owner of Tampa Palms Psychology, LLC. My practice is focused on helping you cope with the demands of the modern world through compassion, careful listening, and various psychotherapeutic methods. I provide individual psychotherapy for a broad range of adult mental health problems including depression, anxiety, work stress, and relationship concerns. In addition, I have interests stress and coping in healthcare providers, trauma and post-traumatic stress (PTSD), geriatric mental health, caregiver support, individuals coping with chronic medical illnesses and insomnia. My approach to psychotherapy is personalized, integrative and evidence-based, and focuses on tailoring the treatment to your particular circumstances. Couples therapy is provided on a limited basis. Most of my clients pay for treatment 'out-of-pocket' but I do provide documentation if you wish to pursue out of network reimbursement with your insurance.

Evening and weekend hours are available for your convenience.

I promote a safe environment that encourages empathy, insight, and empowerment. It is important to build a trusting relationship which will assist with working through the presenting issue(s). I utilize psychodynamic techniques which means I not only look at helping to work through what is currently not going right, but also finding the root of the issue(s). I believe the knowledge gained towards what has caused these struggles will create a longer-term change. The aim is to not just to help to fix the initial symptoms, but to also create tools to use then and in future situations.

Hey there, I'm Chris. You've spent years being the person everyone else counts on — the one who holds it together, figures it out, and keeps going even when you're running on empty. You're not failing. You're burned out. And there's a real difference between the two. I work with high-achieving adults who are tired of white-knuckling their way through life. The ones who have tried therapy before and left feeling like they got a worksheet instead of actual change. The ones who are self-aware enough to know exactly what's wrong but can't seem to stop doing it anyway. My approach isn't textbook. I don't do the head-nodding, "how-does-that-make-you-feel" thing. I notice what you're doing in the room and I say something about it. We get into the actual patterns — the overgiving, the resentment you've been swallowing, the version of yourself you keep promising you'll get back. That's where the real work happens. You've been holding it together long enough. Let's talk.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when you’ve been carrying a lot on your own. My goal is to create an affirming, compassionate space where you can show up as your whole self, feel genuinely understood, and talk openly about what’s happening in your life without judgment. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, identity, relationships, self-esteem, parenting, and major life transitions. I have particular expertise in LGBTQIA+ affirming care and reproductive mental health, including infertility and family building, pregnancy, postpartum experiences, and the many emotions and transitions that can accompany the path to parenthood. My approach is collaborative, practical, and tailored to you. We’ll explore what’s bringing you to therapy, identify what you’d like to change, and build on your existing strengths while developing tools that can help you move forward. I draw from evidence-based approaches while recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all way to do therapy. I offer individual therapy via telehealth and believe therapy can be a place for both support and meaningful growth—where you can better understand yourself, navigate difficult seasons, and create changes that feel authentic and sustainable.

As licensed clinicians, we focus on meeting with clients who are dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, personality challenges, and mood challenges. We also help those who need someone to talk to about life stressors and life decisions. Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t. Together, we will reframe negative thoughts into positive ones, build skills to manage intrusive thoughts, and learn how to focus on your strengths.
