Meet Our Expert Therapy and Counseling Team
Vicky Hurlburt
Founder & CEO
I’m Vicky Hurlburt, MBA from Florida Atlantic University and a seasoned healthcare leader. Positive Therapy FL was born from a deeply personal journey after my husband and I experienced the heartbreaking loss of our baby boy, Oliver, in 2020. That experience profoundly shaped our lives, revealing not only the emotional weight of grief but also the gap in truly compassionate support during such times.
Positive Therapy FL emerged not only from that need but also as a way to honor Oliver’s memory. Creating this space is my way of turning pain into purpose offering hope, healing, and support to individuals and families facing their own struggles.
Our mission is to provide a safe, empathetic space where people feel seen, supported, and empowered. Through compassionate care, we aim to nurture resilience and guide meaningful growth, even in life’s most difficult moments.
Adam Hurlburt
MS, LMFT, Founder
Hi, I'm Adam Hurlburt, MS, LMFT.
My passion for helping others has driven me to build Positive Therapy FL for the past six years. I offer a safe space for individuals, couples, and families to navigate challenges and strengthen relationships.
I specialize in helping families, particularly those with adolescents, improve communication and understanding. I've witnessed firsthand how therapy can transform family dynamics, leading to greater happiness and stronger bonds. My success extends to couples overcoming trust issues and communication barriers, as well as individuals seeking to manage anxiety, depression, ADHD and to achieve personal goals.
Beyond the therapy room, I cherish spending time with my family and unwinding with a good movie. Witnessing the positive changes my clients experience is incredibly rewarding, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to make a difference in their lives.

Maria Alayza
PhD, LMHC, LMFT, NCC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor • Marriage & Family Therapist
Leading Clinician – Maternal Wellness Program
therapist (English & Spanish) deeply committed to supporting
individuals, couples, and families through life’s most meaningful and challenging seasons. With a doctoral degree in counseling and dual licensure, I take a warm, holistic, and relational approach to the healing process.
My PhD research centers on post-traumatic growth after pregnancy loss. This is an area close to my heart and one that guides my role at Positive Therapy FL, where I am proud to lead our Maternal Wellness Program, supporting women through postpartum emotional challenges, fertility-related stress, pregnancy loss, and the emotional transitions of motherhood.
In addition to maternal mental health, I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, couples counseling, and family dynamics. In every session, I strive to create a space where my clients feel seen, safe, understood, and supported, where change feels possible and growth can gently emerge.
Outside the therapy room, I enjoy staying connected to my cultural roots and focusing on my wellbeing through personal practices and by spending meaningful time with my loved ones. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to support clients on their journeys as they heal, rediscover their strength, reconnect with themselves, and move toward meaningful transformation.
