Hi, I'm Kaitlyn, a therapist who graduated from the University of Tennessee at Martin. I specialize in men's mental health, and I'm deeply committed to helping men feel comfortable, understood, and supported in a therapeutic setting.
I know that seeking therapy can feel like a big step, especially when life is throwing a lot at you at once. Whether you're dealing with stress that feels unmanageable, anxiety that follows you into every part of your day, or a major life transition that has left you feeling uncertain about what comes next, I'm here to help you work through it with practical, evidence-based tools that actually make a difference.
My primary approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, a well-researched method that focuses on identifying the unhelpful thought patterns driving how you feel and behave, and replacing them with healthier, more grounded ways of thinking and responding. CBT is structured and goal-focused, which means we won't just be talking in circles. Every session is designed to move you forward in a real, measurable way.
I chose to specialize in men's mental health because I believe men deserve a therapy experience that respects how they think, communicate, and process challenges. My goal is to make therapy feel less like something being done to you and more like a practical tool you can use to build the life you want.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Fort Myers
Finding family therapists in Fort Myers starts with identifying what your family wants to work on together. Family therapy may support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one individual. As you compare Fort Myers therapists, look for bios that describe experience with family counseling, child and teen concerns, parenting support, or relationship patterns.
In a smaller city like Fort Myers, the number of local family therapists with the exact specialty, schedule, and format you want may vary. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you search for care in Florida. Family therapy may include the full family, caregivers and children, couples, or individual family members at different points. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, session structure, therapeutic approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to discuss fit.
Therapy in Fort Myers can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before care begins. Headway helps you find family therapists, many of whom accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer in-person or virtual appointments. You can browse profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
