Feeling Stuck and Overwhelmed? You Don’t Have to Do It Alone
What you know
You’ve always been the strong one—the person everyone counts on. You’ve handled things on your own for so long that asking for help feels… unfamiliar. Maybe even a little uncomfortable. But lately, the weight has been heavier than usual. You’ve been trying to manage your emotions, pushing through the sadness, exhaustion, and self-doubt, but something feels different this time. Maybe you're wondering, Why isn’t this working like it used to?
The truth is, even the strongest people need support. And the fact that you’re here, considering therapy, shows just how much you care about your well-being. You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself anymore.
A Brave Space to Be Yourself
As a therapist in Belize, I offer a space where you can let go of the pressure to have it all together. My approach isn’t about telling you what to do—I believe you already have the answers inside of you. My role is to help you reflect, gain clarity, and appreciate where you've been while guiding you toward where you want to go.
My clients often tell me that therapy with me feels different. They appreciate having a space where they can be themselves, without judgment, and start seeing their experiences from a new perspective. They often say things like:
“I love this version of myself and all the other parts of me. I really needed this.”
My clients also often like to say:
“I used to have to compartmentalize everything to get things done but now I don’t need to because there won’t be anything to hide from.”
You are the expert of your own life. You know what’s best for you. I’m just here to help you translate your experiences, recognize your own wisdom, and navigate your journey with more ease and self-compassion.
Therapy That Meets You Where You Are
I use a variety of techniques tailored to your unique needs, but above all, I provide a space where you can be graceful with yourself. We will work together to uncover insights, heal old wounds, and embrace the growth that’s already happening within you. Many of my clients say that the most valuable part of therapy is not just the tools I offer but the realization that they were never truly alone in their struggles.
For over 8 years I have worked with clients who have anxiety, trauma, sexual trauma, and self-esteem issues. My clients typically come to see me weekly so that they have consistent support and move out of crisis mode so that they are in control of their emotions before going back to the root of their pain so that they don’t need to be triggered by it. My clients often like to say it’s like you used to have to compartmentalize everything to get things done but now you don’t need to because there won’t be anything to hide from. You remember what happened but know that at this moment you are safe.
Online Therapy That Works for You
I understand that some people worry about whether online therapy can be as effective as in-person sessions. The good news is that research and my own clients’ experiences show that virtual therapy can be just as powerful. As long as you have a quiet space, free from distractions, you’ll be able to engage in our sessions fully. No need to commute, no waiting rooms—just a safe and convenient way to receive support from wherever you are.
Clients often tell me that they feel just as connected and supported online as they would in person. Once we begin, you’ll see that therapy isn’t just about the physical space, it’s about the connection, the insights, and the healing that happens within you.
You don’t have to keep carrying this alone. If you’re ready to explore a new way of understanding yourself and your emotions, I invite you to take the next step. Let’s start with a free 15-minute consultation where we can talk about what’s on your mind and see if we’re a good fit.

An Invitation to be a Brave Space
~ Mikey Jones
Together we will create a brave space…we all carry scares and we have all caused wounds. In this space, we seek to turn down the volume of the outside world. We amplify voices that fight to be heard. We call each other to more truth and love. We have the right to start somewhere and continue to grow. We have the responsibility to examine what we think we know. We will not be perfect. It will not always be what we wish it to be BUT it will be our brave space together and WE will work on it, side by side.
