CURRECTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS.

Hey there! If you’re here, chances are something feels heavy right now. Maybe your child is struggling with anxiety, emotional outbursts, or confidence. Maybe your teen feels overwhelmed, shut down, or exhausted from trying to hold it together. Or maybe you’re the one carrying anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, or emotional burnout. I primarily work with children, teens, and young adults who are tired of surviving and ready to feel more grounded, connected, and emotionally safe. I also work with adults and parents seeking support, healing, and lasting change.

Currently, I offer telehealth and in-person sessions (on select days). Please reach out by phone or email to get started.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of FL. I have over 6 years of experience helping children, teens and adults struggling with their mental health. I hold additional certification in the trauma-informed Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a listening-based intervention designed to help regulate the nervous system and support emotional healing. I also utilize treatment modalities of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Play therapy.

Hi, I'm Dr. Clay Connelly, but please just call me "Clay." I'm a licensed professional counselor with over 15 years of experience working with teens and adults facing anxiety, depression, anger, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and other emotional concerns. Clients often describe me as approachable, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to. My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable being yourself while also helping you make meaningful progress toward your goals.

I believe therapy should be both supportive and practical. In our work together, we'll focus not only on understanding what you're experiencing but also on developing skills and strategies you can use in everyday life. Whether you're seeking short-term support or longer-term personal growth, I strive to provide a respectful, collaborative, and nonjudgmental therapeutic experience.

I graduated from The Ohio State University with my DNP in 2020 focusing on efficient pathways to implement depression screening post-stroke to identify mental health needs. After working a couple years as a nurse practitioner within neurosurgery, I transitioned from Ohio to Florida and pursued my PMHNP certification from Florida State University. Over the past 5 years I have been treating psychiatric needs in LTC around Florida. I am currently working to expand into independent practice and work personally with individuals creating a therapeutic relationship and enhancing their mental health.
