The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.

Taking the step to seek mental health support can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to do it alone.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) providing compassionate, patient-centered care to individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, and complex mental health needs.

I have experience working across high-acuity hospital settings, partial hospitalization programs, and community-based care, which allows me to support individuals through both everyday challenges and more complex clinical situations. My goal is to create a calm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and respected.

Francesca Thomas

Francesca Thomas

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I've spent over 21 years helping people navigate some of life's toughest situations — substance use, trauma, domestic violence, anger, and the kind of challenges that make it hard to see a way forward. I spent the last decade working in court-ordered programs with clients who didn't choose to be in therapy, and I got them to stay. First thing I tell every client: I am your advocate. I'm real, I'm relatable, and yes, I will make you laugh! I'm a seasoned Black woman from New York City, and my NYC energy definitely comes through. Clients describe me as someone who can break through that wall of resistance many people walk in with and I'm proud of that.

Suzanne Brafman

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I work with clients who have spent years taking care of everyone else, questioning themselves, minimizing their own pain, or trying to hold together relationships that have left them feeling anxious, depleted, and disconnected from who they are.

Many of my clients are navigating divorce, betrayal, emotional abuse, narcissistic relationship patterns, family conflict, or the lasting impact of earlier trauma. They may appear strong and capable on the outside while privately struggling with shame, self-doubt, people-pleasing, hypervigilance, or difficulty trusting their own judgment. I help my clients make sense of what they have experienced, reconnect with themselves, and begin creating a life that feels safer, healthier, and more genuinely their own.

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


If you're an adolescent or adult carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, or the kind of exhaustion that comes from navigating life on your own for too long, therapy with me is meant to feel calm, unhurried, and genuinely supportive. I work with teens and adults facing relationship struggles, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, emotional dysregulation, and stress that's hard to shake. I also support parents of children and young adults with ADHD or autism-related needs, and I have experience working with individuals and families facing complex mental health and substance use challenges. My background spans community mental health, crisis stabilization, outpatient care, and hospital settings, so I've sat with a wide range of what people go through.

Jasmine Martin

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Hi, I’m Jasmine. My professional background is rooted in treating abuse related trauma. My work focuses on helping people make sense of distress, whether it stems from clear past events or simply from patterns that no longer fit their lives. I am trained in EMDR and approach therapy as a collaborative process rooted in trust, attunement, and respect for each client’s pace. I value honesty, clarity, and a grounded sense of humor in the therapy room, including an appreciation for incongruence and the occasional ridiculousness of being human, and I believe meaningful change unfolds within a genuine, steady therapeutic relationship.

I help clients navigate trauma, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and patterns that interfere with meaningful change. I offer in person therapy in Venice, FL through Landry Therapy & Wellness and telehealth throughout FL through Headway. Together, let's create a personalized path towards sustainable growth through healthier patterns.

If' you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just ready for a change, reaching out for support is a meaningful first step. You don't have to minimize what you've been through, and you don't have to have all the answers before getting started. Together we will explore what's impacting your life and build tools needed for healing and growth
