Celebrating over 16 years serving the Oviedo and Winter Springs area! 

Offering adult therapy, child and play therapy, couples and family therapy. 


The Hazel Counseling Center, PLLC has been supporting our community by addressing mental health concerns for over 15 years.  We offer specialized counseling services to support you through the steps for improving your well-being and quality of life.  Our combined knowledge and experience allow our team of therapists to treat each age group from very young children through all stages of adult development.  We support a wide range of concerns and would welcome the opportunity to visit with you about the help we can offer. 

Approaches specific to each age group are used to achieve the best results from your sessions. For adults this might include talk therapy, education specific to your concerns, increased understanding of how the mind and body work together, or joint sessions with loved ones to resolve conflict and address issues. For children and teens, therapy might include play therapy, activities designed for parents and children to resolve conflict and restore structure, or use of creative and expressive materials to facilitate opening up.



“Sometimes, all it takes is one kind word to nourish another person.”

-Fred Rogers

Using integrative therapy approaches and techniques, we will address long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that are holding you back from experiencing a more compassionate and meaningful life.

If you're looking for support and guidance through a challenging situation, increased self-understanding, or you're ready to move in a new direction in your life, we look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.
