Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Brandon, FL

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and proud U.S. Army veteran committed to helping adults find balance and healing. I provide evidence-based, compassionate care for anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress-related conditions. My goal is to create a calm, respectful environment where every client—veteran or civilian—feels seen, supported, and understood. I combine medication management with practical coping strategies and therapy-informed guidance to promote lasting well-being.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have extensive experience in individual therapy. I studied at Hunter Silberman School of Social Work. I am certified in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and CBT and use these modalities along with others in a holistic approach to help support my clients in their therapeutic goals.

I am an ex-professional athlete, product of a broken home, with direct trauma experience and I am here to assist with any mental health, personal development or life's transitions; whether it's divorce, career transition, relationship building, athletic achievement, abuse, getting unstuck, discovering purpose and meaning in life, or just finally deciding to move beyond whatever stuck point you are struggling with.

I have a wealth of knowledge and experience to impart to those who are stuck, ambitious, or just confused. My journey is marked by an impressive array of certifications, including Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Sexual Offender Treatment Specialist, and Certified Forensic Trauma Specialist.

Hi, I'm Connolly D'Souza. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Addictions Professional, and Certified Trauma Specialist. I support individuals navigating trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe, heard, and supported.

My intention is to provide a judgment-free space where we can talk about what is going on and collaborate to move forwards in the best way possible. I am flexible in my approach to counseling, and I tailor my counseling style based on the needs of each person I work with. I enjoy working with a wide range of clients (age, gender, concerns, etc.) and I am passionate about what I do. I am into fitness and healthy lifestyle, and I support my clients with creating their own foundation of wellness.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor with over 20 years of experience supporting adults through life’s most challenging seasons. My background includes extensive work in behavioral health and addiction treatment, with a focus on helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, stress, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and judgment-free. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, exhausted, anxious, discouraged, or unsure of how to move forward. My goal is to help you better understand what you are experiencing, identify patterns that may be holding you back, and build healthier tools to manage life with more confidence and stability.

I strive to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported as we work together toward meaningful change.
