This group might be exactly what you've been looking for if:You want to be in a room (even a virtual one) with other Trans, Nonbinary, or Gender Diverse adults who actually get it, no explaining required.You're craving an affirming space to explore identity, relationships, emotions, and where you're headed, without having to translate your experience for anyone.You value real conversations over small talk, and you're okay sitting with emotional honesty, even when it's uncomfortable.You're open to both sharing your story and learning from someone else's.You can show up consistently. This isn't a drop-in space, it's a small group that grows because everyone commits to being there.You're ready to build real relationships with people who see you fully, no performing, no over explaining.Not sure if it's the right fit? That's completely normal, and totally okay. We offer a brief screening consultation where we can talk it through together and figure out if this is the right space for you right now.

To join IdentiT, you'll need to be a Trans, Nonbinary, or Gender Diverse adult between 18 and 40. Beyond that, the only other step is a brief screening consultation with us, just so we can get to know you a little and make sure this group feels right for you before you commit.And, that's really it. No long application process, no extra hurdles just making sure this is the right place for you.

No. Participation matters, but it looks different for everyone, and there's no pressure to perform.Feeling nervous before your first session is completely normal, almost everyone starts feeling that way. You won't be pushed to share more than feels right for you, ever.What usually happens is trust builds session by session, and without even realizing it, you start opening up more and connecting with the group in ways that feel natural, not forced.The one thing we do ask is that you stay present, camera on, in a private space where you can speak freely if and when you're ready.

Yes. Absolutely.We know how vulnerable it feels to open up, especially in a group setting, so making this space feel safe isn't just a policy for us, it's the whole point.Everything you share stays in the room. We use a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform for every session, and your information is never shared outside your care without your written permission (the only exceptions are the rare situations required by law, which we will explain before starting the group.)A few things we ask of every participant to help protect that safety for the whole group: keep your camera on, join from a private space where no one can overhear you, and use headphones if you can. These aren't just rules, they're how we all protect each other.At the end of the day, we want this to be a space where you can actually show up as you are and know you'll be met with respect, not judgment.

No.You don't need to be currently working with an individual therapist, whether at IVCC or anywhere else, to join this group.Some people come to this group on its own, others pair it with individual therapy. Either way works. During the screening, we'll talk through what's going on for you and figure out together whether this group makes sense for where you're at right now.

Kind of, but not quite. Let me explain the difference, because it actually matters. This is a therapist-led psychotherapy process group, not a peer-led support group. That distinction shapes everything about how the group works.Yes, people naturally end up supporting each other here, that happens organically. But the group is guided by a mental health professional and board-certified advanced gender therapist, with the intention of going deeper than just talking through what's hard. It's built to help you understand yourself more clearly, build emotional awareness, communicate better, and create relationships that actually feel fulfilling.So instead of just processing challenges out loud, you leave with real insight and real change, not just a space to vent. Although there is going to be some venting involved. 😊

Once you fill out the interest form below, we'll review it and reach out to schedule a brief screening consultation.That conversation is just for us to get to know each other a little, answer any questions you have, and talk through what you're looking for so we can figure out together if IdentiT is the right fit right now.If it feels like a good match, we'll walk you through enrollment, get you the paperwork you need, and save your spot in the next cohort. OMG, we cannot wait to get to know you! 🧡

Each session is $50, charged automatically to the card you have on file right after the session ends.This group is intentionally self-pay, and that's not by accident or limitation. Insurance means a diagnosis on permanent record and your personal information moving through systems outside our control, and we don't think you should have to trade your privacy for access to support. We made this choice with you in mind, so self-pay keeps this experience entirely between you and us, nobody else.We'll always make sure you know exactly what to expect cost-wise before you start, no surprises along the way.

Life happens, and we get that. Missing an occasional session won't get you removed from the group.That said, this group works best when there's consistency, both for you and for the trust the group builds together. To protect that, missing more than 2 sessions means we'll need to remove you from the cohort, this isn't about punishment, it's about making sure the group stays a safe, connected space for everyone in it. If you know your schedule might make consistent attendance hard, let's talk about it during your screening consultation so we can figure out the right timing for you to join.

Right now, yes, IdentiT runs in English. But we know how important it is to have this space in Spanish too, so a Spanish-language group is coming soon. Stay tuned, we'll share details as soon as it's ready. Próximamente, este mismo grupo estará disponible completamente en español. Mantente al tanto. 😉

IdentiT is facilitated by Charlie (Carlos Garcia), a Mental Health Counselor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, Board-Certified Advanced Gender Therapist, and Ph.D. candidate in Clinical Sexology.Charlie works with individuals and couples across Florida and Canada, with a focus that includes LGBTQ+ and transgender concerns, identity exploration, relationships, and life transitions. He brings a warm, collaborative approach rooted in genuinely understanding his clients, not just treating them.This isn't someone learning about your experience for the first time. It's someone who has spent his career creating spaces where people don't have to explain who they are.

That's a real concern, and a fair one. Process groups can bring things up, and it's normal to want support beyond the every-two-weeks rhythm.If that happens, we offer individual therapy with affirming therapists at IVCC, including Charlie himself or another clinician on the team. Many participants choose to pair the group with individual sessions, especially during moments that feel like a lot. You're never left to sit with something alone until the next group meets.

New IdentiT cohorts begin every 4 months, so if a group is already underway, you won't be joining mid-session. Instead, we'll get you set up for the next cohort and make sure you're ready to go from day one.

This group might be exactly what you've been looking for if:You're in a relationship with someone who is Trans, Nonbinary, or Gender Diverse, and you want to be in a room (even a virtual one) with others who actually understand what that's like.You're craving a space to process the emotional, relational, and sometimes confusing parts of this journey, without having to explain the basics first.You value real conversations over small talk, and you're okay sitting with emotional honesty, even when it's uncomfortable.You're open to both sharing your experience and learning from someone else's.You can show up consistently. This isn't a drop-in space, it's a small group that grows because everyone commits to being there.You're ready to build real relationships with people who get this specific kind of complicated, without judgment.Not sure if it's the right fit?

Because we’re human first—and we see you as one. We put people before symptoms. We’re a team of relational therapists who support individuals, couples, and families through life’s complexities—anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, identity exploration, and major transitions. At Inner Voice Counseling Center, we hold close what Charlie often says: "healing starts when silence breaks"—when you feel safe, understood, and genuinely supported. Our style is warm and collaborative. We integrate CBT, DBT, SFBT, Narrative Therapy, and other evidence-based approaches—never one-size-fits-all, but always shaped around you and your story. We genuinely value working with clients from all walks of life. We bring specialized experience in anxiety, trauma, identity concerns, sexuality, LGBTQIA+ care, and connection issues. For couples, we help strengthen communication, rebuild trust, navigate conflict, deepen intimacy, and repair after ruptures. We’re passionate about creating a space where healing, growth, and meaningful change can happen safely. At Inner Voice, we walk alongside you as you reconnect with your inner voice and move toward the life and relationships that truly feel right for you. If you want to see whether we’re a good fit, start with a brief 15-minute call—no pressure, just a conversation. Serving all Florida & Canada!

Individual therapy is a steady place to sort what’s loud, name what matters, and make changes that stick. We start by listening to the whole story, then set one or two small goals and we get to work. Most people meet weekly or biweekly. Common focus areas: anxiety and stress, trauma and grief, identity and sexuality, boundaries, people-pleasing, self-criticism, burnout, family dynamics, and relationship/connection patterns with friends, family, and co-workers. These are just examples—your therapy is fully tailored to you, because every person is unique. What sessions look like: Usually sessions are 45–60 minutes by secure video (English, Spanish, or Spanglish). We’ll mix reflection with practical tools—communication scripts, grounding skills, boundary language, repair steps—so you leave with one clear next step. We use CBT, DBT, SFBT, Relational, and Narrative Therapy, and we adjust the plan as your life changes. How progress shows up: calmer days, fewer spirals, clearer boundaries, easier conversations, more clarity, and more room for what you care about. You set the pace; we’ll walk it with you. Let's start with our free 15 minutes consultation call and take it from there. Serving all Florida & Canada!

Yes—this is core work for us. If you’re stuck in the same fight or intimacy feels out of reach, we help you communicate so it actually lands, rebuild trust after infidelity, de-escalate conflict, and reconnect. We also support premarital couples, co-parents, and partners navigating cultural or language differences. We also address desire differences, performance anxiety, and low-desire periods (“dry spells”). We’ll help you rebuild closeness after conflict or trauma. Our couples work is inclusive of all orientations and relationship structures—seriously. We have specialized training and a deep passion for sex and couples therapy. We also provide LGBTQIA+ therapy (including for trans and non-binary couples) and support for non-traditional relationships, including throuples and polyamorous dynamics. We’ll help you clarify agreements and boundaries, build communication that reduces defensiveness and jealousy, and strengthen intimacy—without judgment. If you’re ready to move from stuck to connected, let’s talk. Serving all Florida & Canada!

Yes—absolutely. We offer LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy for individuals and couples in the queer community. Whether you’re gay, lesbian, bi, trans, queer, or non-binary—coming out, exploring gender or identity, healing from family rejection or estrangement, moving through anxiety or depression, facing workplace stress or discrimination, or unsure how to ask for the intimacy you want—we’ll meet you with care, clarity, and real talk. Our space is warm, inclusive, and validating—for every letter of LGBTQIA+ 🏳️‍🌈. Seriously, every letter. We understand minority stress and the ways culture, family, faith, and language shape your story. We work at your pace, in English or Spanish, and we welcome all relationship structures (monogamous, CNM/poly, throuples). What you can expect: to feel seen and respected; to build skills for communication and boundaries; to strengthen self-worth and resilience; and—if you’re in a relationship—to repair after ruptures and grow closeness. If this sounds like the kind of support you want, let’s start with a brief 15-minute call? Serving all Florida & Canada!

Yes. Our client portal has everything you'll need. It sends reminders and your private video link for your sessions in a very friendly way. You join from a quiet space and meet over an encrypted connection. Scheduling, forms, and billing live there too.

We’re in-network with most major plans (Aetna, Optum, UnitedHealthcare, AvMed, Oxford, Oscar) and also offer self-pay and superbills in case you have a different insurance so you can request your provider for potential reimbrusements. We’ll help you confirm benefits and copays. * We are open to discussing different rate arrangements on a case-by-case basis, subject to the discretion of Inner Voice Counseling Center and based on the service and payment options. Serving all Florida!

We get it—life is full and moves fast—and your mental health shouldn't be left behind. ​ Between work, family, and everything in between, carving out time for yourself can feel impossible. That’s why at Inner Voice Counseling Center, we’re fully virtual on purpose. This isn’t about what’s easy for us—it’s a decision made for you, based on what works.

Bilingual care in English, Spanish, or Spanglish—use the language that fits the moment. Built for real relationships. Couples can meet from different locations; co-parents can join from separate homes, etc. If you’re curious how this would look for you, book a brief 15-minute call. We’ll walk you through the setup and help you take a first step that actually fits your life.

“Warm, grounded, real.” That’s what we hear most—real people, real talk. Clients feel heard and understood, and they leave with more clarity. Over time, many notice calmer conversations, better communication, less reactivity, steadier trust, and more closeness. Growth and healing become visible in day-to-day life. Your story matters here. You matter. For visibility and transparency, we share testimonials across the website so you can read some of our clients’ words.
