Meet Our Team

I like to think of myself as overly curious, highly motivated, and holistically inclined. I earned my doctorate from Alliant International University in 2014 and was licensed first in NY in 2015 and in FL in 2017. As the owner of Wasabi + Well, I’m on a mission to build a community of doers. My vision is to create a wellness community of people who practice radical honesty by embracing their imperfections on their whimsical journey to more healing and lasting self-love.

An important part of the human experience is feeling understood as your authentic self. We want to know that our feelings are valid and understand why certain situations affect us the way they do. To further develop your sense of who you are in relation to yourself, your loved ones, and your environment, we will uncover your current narrative.

My priority is to collaborate with you to set goals and create a space where you feel respected, valued, and empowered to transform. Through sadness and laughter I will support you as you work towards healing and growth. The bravery to reach out for help is the first step and I look forward to taking the next steps with you.

Tell me, what’s your biggest struggle? Perhaps you’re feeling jittery, overwhelmed, or your mood just doesn’t feel right? Some feelings and thoughts require a helping hand and someone who is genuinely interested in seeing you and hearing you.

I believe in creating a safe, nurturing space. In offering a vibe that allows you to be your whole self. Through your authenticity I will support you to gain new insights that leads to positive changes in your perspective necessary for growth and progress.

When you’re ready to take the journey, then take my hand and know you’re not alone. Let’s make progress together!

I am Lovely J. Dorleans, graduate of Florida A&M University, with a passion for mental health in BIPOC communities. I am dedicated to providing you with a safe therapeutic environment immersed in empathy, genuineness, and unconditional positive regard. Through the use of evidence-based practices I strive to aid clients in navigating the highs and lows of everyday life. Let’s work together to transport you to the life you’ve been dreaming of all year. 

Everyone deserves to feel peace in being unapologetically themselves, and it is my goal to help you create this peace. I believe in creating a therapeutic space that welcomes every aspect of your identity as these aspects grow, change, or solidify. Together, we will cultivate a space in which all emotions can be listened to and learned from. Through the safe space that we create, I aspire to help you not just survive but thrive. Let’s journey together!
