Hi!

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner fluent in English and Spanish. Prior to working in healthcare, I served 4 years in the Marine Corps as a military police officer, which helped shape me into the person I am today

I treat young children to adults and specialize in ADHD, sleep disorders, anxiety/panic disorders, depression, personality disorders, schizophrenia, and other mental health conditions.

My goal is to connect with all my patients, using an honest, warm, and relatable approach. Let's take this journey toward mental wellness hand in hand. Please visit my website at www.calvinopsych.com to find my office availabilities in Florida and North Carolina

Renee Rivers

Renee Rivers

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 12 mi away • Miramar, FL


Hi, I’m Renée Rivers, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in South Florida. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, teens, and families navigating trauma, identity, and major life transitions. As a first-generation Haitian-American woman, I deeply understand the cultural and intergenerational layers that shape how we relate to ourselves and others. My clinical work is grounded in empathy, accountability, and authenticity, I create a space where you don’t have to explain “everything” because I hold space for complexity. I am especially passionate about helping clients unlearn survival patterns that no longer serve them and redefine success, connection, and rest on their own terms.

I’ve worked in school settings, community mental health agencies, and now lead my own private practice, Reflective Rivers Therapy & Consulting. I hold a master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Counseling with a specialization in Couples and Family Therapy.

Zaneb Mansha

Zaneb Mansha

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 16 mi away • Boca Raton, FL


Hi, I'm Zaneb! I'm a licensed mental health therapist who believes therapy should be a place where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change. I earned my bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Sociology and my Master's in Social Work from The Ohio State University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based mental health care.

Over the past several years, I've had the privilege of working with thousands of individuals from diverse backgrounds. I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, self-esteem, stress, relationship challenges, and cultural identity. As someone who understands the pressure of balancing high expectations, perfectionism, and multiple roles, I strive to create a space where you don't have to have everything figured out before asking for help.
