Psychologist
Gainesville, FL
Accepting new clients

My goal is to improve client mental health so that they feel and perform better. I provide a space where clients can be “heard” without judgment and are able to identify their strengths. These strengths are then combined with research-based practices to build skills needed to achieve one's personal goals.

I can provide a space for all that you carry to be witnessed, validated,...

Trimtab Therapy
Pre-Licensed Professional
Gainesville, FL

Tensegrity is the balance in systems under tension. When we are resourced and grounded, this tension can feel propulsive and useful; when we are overwhelmed or disoriented, it can feel suffocating, oppressive, and unsafe. To move through this suffering, therapy is a resource that can lead to insight, empowerment, and authenticity. My name is Conor Mitchell. I am an artist and musician, a father and co-parent, and a licensed therapist. I believe in the power of therapy, mindfulness, mentorship...
