Nathaly Dorvil

ASSOCIATE THERAPIST

I  help culturally diverse ambitious women navigate life by empowering them to transcend cultural stigmas and harness their innate resilience to live a more fulfilling life.

I'm Nathaly, a licensed therapist in Florida, and I bring a unique perspective to therapy due to my Haitian heritage. 

 

Having personally navigated the challenges of mental health stigma, I'm acutely attuned to the diverse cultural backgrounds that shape individuals' experiences. This insight fuels my passion for breaking down barriers and fostering a safe, inclusive environment for everyone. My journey in the mental health field was inspired by my own life experiences as an immigrant who moved to the US at a young age. 

 

Overcoming numerous obstacles, I understand the complexities of major life adjustments and transitions. This empathy enables me to connect deeply with individuals grappling with similar challenges. I firmly believe that a strong therapeutic alliance is built upon feeling comfortable and understood, and I am dedicated to being that source of support for my clients. I'm committed to guiding each of my clients towards a more meaningful life by harnessing the incredible power of resilience and personal growth. Whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, or career struggles, I offer a safe haven where you can freely express yourself without the fear of judgment. 

 

My therapeutic approach encompasses various modalities that I've honed over the years. Drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy, I tailor our sessions to suit your unique needs. Together, we form a team working towards your well-being and personal development.
