Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Fort Walton Beach, FL

I've been a licensed psychologist for about 30 years. Over that period, I've worked with clients presenting with all kinds of life situations and presenting problems. I have particular expertise around anxiety disorders, depression, trauma and substance use issues.

I am a dedicated professional committed to helping clients achieve their goals through personalized support and evidence-based approaches. My focus is on creating a comfortable, respectful, and supportive environment where clients feel heard. All are welcome and understood.

Hi, I am Erin Elizabeth, I am a seasoned therapist who has been practicing in South Florida over 20 years . Have worked with adults, children, teens, young adults , families, couples, and seniors. I also work with substance abuse. I have helped people resolve their issues, set goals, and have a happier life. No problem is too big or too small. Everyone has their unique set of circumstances. I help people have hope and find joy again in life. We work together to improve brken relationships and let go of past resentments. My style is down to earth, yet professional. I am warm and clients feel safe with me. I give respect and positive regard to each individual I see.

As a therapist for 8 years, I believe anything can be accomplished through the right therapeutic approach. It is not about fitting a client into a mold but creating a mold that fits the client. Through this journey, the client is the artist, sculptor, and visionary that recreates the new and repairs the old.

I’m Leonor F. Vazquez, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience in psychiatric care since 2018. I provide compassionate, individualized mental health care primarily to adults ages 18 and older.

I treat a variety of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, generalized and social anxiety disorders, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, psychosis, borderline personality disorder, and sleep disorders.

My approach goes beyond prescribing medication. I believe meaningful mental health care begins with listening, understanding your story, and seeing you as a whole person—not simply as a diagnosis. I combine evidence-based psychiatric evaluation and medication management with therapeutic support when appropriate, creating an individualized treatment plan based on your needs, strengths, concerns, and goals.

My priority is for you to feel heard, respected, supported, and never judged. Your voice matters, and I want you to be an active participant in your treatment.

My goal is not only to help reduce symptoms, but also to help you achieve greater stability, improve your daily functioning, and build a meaningful and fulfilling life.

A mental health diagnosis does not define you or determine what you can achieve. I genuinely care about the people I serve and strive to create a safe, trusting relationship where we can work together toward positive change.

You are more than a diagnosis. You have a story, strengths, goals, and possibilities. I would be honored to support you on your journey toward better mental health and a better quality of life.

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with over 22 years of experience supporting individuals and families through a wide range of mental health challenges. I take a client-centered approach that emphasizes trust, connection, and positive reinforcement. I have extensive experience addressing behavioral concerns rooted in childhood experiences and helping clients understand how early patterns continue to impact their lives today.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I've spent my career working alongside people

who've often felt unseen, underserved, or unsupported by the systems meant to help

them. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults in marginalized communities

navigating identity, mental health, relationships, and trauma. My approach is

grounded in genuine curiosity about who you are, not just what brings you in. You'll

find a space built on empathy and empowerment, where you can show up exactly as

you are. I'd love to connect.
