Tricia Antonio

My communication style

My style is warm, honest, and down-to-earth, with humor when helpful. I create a safe, judgment-free space where you can speak openly and feel heard. I offer empathy, practical feedback, and a collaborative approach so you feel supported and empowered throughout your journey.

My journey to mental healthcare

My path into mental health is personal. As a child, I experienced trauma and found healing through therapy, inspiring this work. I’m passionate about helping others heal, grow, and reach their goals. I hold degrees from USF and FIU, and I’m continually inspired by my clients’ resilience and transformation.

My goals for you

I help clients clarify what matters most—healing, relationships, or balance. We break goals into manageable steps and use EMDR, CBT, and mindfulness for lasting change. I offer support, accountability, and honest feedback, keeping our work collaborative and focused on your goals.

Our first session

Your first session is focused on building rapport and getting to know you. We’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, your background, and what you hope to achieve. Together, we’ll begin identifying goals and outlining a direction for our work in a supportive, comfortable, and judgment-free space.
