ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Fort Walton Beach, FL

You may have learned to navigate spaces where parts of you didn’t feel fully seen or accepted. Over time, those experiences can shape how you see yourself.

What is the story you tell yourself? What messages have you taken in from others—and from the world around you? How have those shaped the way you see yourself?

For many people, these stories are formed in spaces where parts of them felt unseen, misunderstood, or not fully accepted. Over time, this can lead to cycles of self-doubt, shame, or feeling like you have to keep proving your worth.

Mental health care shouldn't feel rushed, intimidating, or like you're checking boxes. I believe the best outcomes happen when patients feel comfortable being honest, asking questions, and actively participating in their care. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide personalized, evidence-based treatment while remembering that you're much more than a diagnosis. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.

I approach work with my patients with genuineness, unconditional positive regard, and empathy. I work with my patients according to their goals in a collaborative manner. I also meet my patients where they are, with challenges that are digestible.

Hi, I’m Matthew Mulock, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for helping people heal, grow, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, meaningful, and fulfilling. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of South Florida and my master’s degree in Social Work, with a concentration in Advanced Clinical Practice, from Saint Leo University. I am originally from Alaska, but Florida has been my home for the past 20 years. I work with adolescents and adults who are navigating a wide range of emotional and mental health challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and everyday stressors. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel safe to be yourself, explore what you are going through, and begin building the tools you need to move forward with confidence.
