Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Altamonte Springs, FL

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified School Counselor in the State of Florida. I have been working with children, adolescence, families, and adults for 26 years. I specialize in positive psychology, social emotional wellness, families and parenting, addiction, anxiety, stress, and wellness.

You don't have to hit rock bottom to deserve support. Sometimes you know something isn't working, but you're not sure where to start or whether your struggles are "serious enough" for therapy. I work with adults navigating addiction and recovery at all stages, as well as anxiety, trauma, and ADHD. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what's happening without judgment and begin figuring out what you want to change.

Hello, my name is Aracelys Cruz, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I completed my advanced training in psychiatric nursing at FNU/PMHNP-BC. I’m passionate about supporting people through life’s challenges and helping them feel heard, respected, and empowered. I work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and other mental health concerns. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, combining therapy, lifestyle guidance, and medication management when needed. My goal is to walk alongside you as we build a path toward balance and wellness.

Hi, I’m Clarrissa Hazel. I’m Caribbean-born, a preacher’s kid, and someone who deeply values faith, family, culture, resilience, and personal growth. I work with individuals who are navigating life transitions, feeling overwhelmed, working through addiction, or trying to become a healthier version of themselves. I also enjoy helping couples strengthen communication, rebuild connection, and work through patterns that may be creating distance.

My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and encouraged — not judged. Whether you are carrying stress, trying to find balance, rebuilding after a difficult season, or simply wanting more clarity in your life, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you take your next step forward.

I help children, adults, couples, and families who are navigating ADHD, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, or substance-use challenges. As an LPC-S, LCDC, and Certified School Counselor, I bring behavioral-health and school-based experience to therapy. My style is warm, direct, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental. Together, we identify patterns, build practical coping and communication skills, and create a treatment plan that reflects your needs, strengths, and goals.
