The hardest part of finding a therapist in Tampa is not finding one with an opening - it is finding one with an opening who actually does what you need. Trauma work is different from couples work. CBT for anxiety is different from IFS for parts work. DBT for emotional regulation is different from grief counseling. At Ascend, we match you based on what you are working on, not just who has the earliest slot.
