Thamar Blaise, LCSW — Therapist in Florida

Hi there, I'm Thamar!

I specialize in helping individuals with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, life transitions, and career challenges. I offer a faith-based approach for those wanting to align mental health with spiritual values. Whether you're feeling stuck, working through trauma, or ready for growth, I provide a compassionate space for healing.

My focus

I work with teens, women, and young adults navigating life transitions, trauma, anxiety, low self-esteem, and stress. Many of my clients are high-achievers who struggle silently with internal battles, feeling stuck or overwhelmed. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore, heal, and grow.

My approach

I believe healing begins in a safe space where you feel heard and understood. I integrate evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness, with a faith-based perspective for clients desiring spiritual integration. I work collaboratively to identify strengths and create personalized goals.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, empathetic, and down-to-earth. I create a space where you feel safe and genuinely heard. I offer compassion and gentle challenge, encouraging growth while honoring your pace. I use active listening and thoughtful questions to help you gain insight. My tone is respectful and affirming.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always had a passion for helping others heal and discover their inner strength. I was drawn to people's stories and their resilience. I've worked with diverse populations facing trauma, anxiety, and life transitions. Personal experiences made me realize how vital it is to have someone walk alongside you in life's hardest moments.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by creating a collaborative environment where we identify what matters most. I use evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, goal-setting strategies, and trauma-informed approaches. We break larger goals into manageable steps, track progress, and adjust as needed.

Our first session

Your first session is about creating a safe space where you can share your story at your own pace. We'll get to know each other—I'll ask what brought you to therapy, your current challenges, and your goals. This session is also a time for you to ask questions and get a feel for working together.
