Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Jacksonville Beach, FL

You don’t have to shrink, mask, or perform to work with me. I work primarily with LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent adults who may look like they’re holding it all together while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or exhausted underneath.

As a queer and neurodivergent therapist myself, I bring both professional training and lived experience to my work. I’m warm and affirming, but I’m also direct—I won’t just tell you what you want to hear. I’ll help you understand yourself, recognize patterns, and make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface.

Therapy with me is about more than feeling heard. It’s about understanding yourself well enough to make different choices, build self-trust, and feel less like you’re constantly trying to survive your own life.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health care should feel collaborative, individualized, and judgment-free. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and actively involved in your treatment.

I work with adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health concerns. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I take time to understand your symptoms, lifestyle, medical history, and personal goals. When appropriate, I also consider factors such as sleep, nutrition, physical health, and laboratory findings that may be contributing to how you feel.

Medication can be an important tool, but it’s only one part of mental health care. Together, we’ll develop a practical treatment plan focused on helping you feel better, function better, and improve your overall quality of life.

I’m Diera Woodard, LCSW, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I’m passionate about helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges with compassion, authenticity, and practical tools for real change. My mission is to create a safe, supportive space where you can heal, grow, and reconnect with your sense of purpose and peace.

Clients often describe my style as warm, honest, and empowering. I meet you where you are and walk with you as you develop the insight and tools needed to create lasting change. I believe that therapy should feel like a collaborative conversation — one that helps you understand your emotions, strengthen your coping skills, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling.

Sometimes the way you learned to cope is no longer helping you live the life you want. You may turn to substances when emotions become overwhelming, find yourself reacting with anger you later regret, or feel trapped between anxiety, depression, and painful experiences from your past. These struggles can begin affecting your relationships, family, confidence, and ability to recognize yourself. I provide virtual individual and family therapy in English and Spanish for adolescents, adults, and seniors throughout Florida, with a focus on substance use and addiction, anxiety, depression, anger management, and trauma. I also support clients navigating family and relationship issues, PTSD, grief and loss, stress, major life transitions, women’s issues, maternal mental health, identity concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and eating disorders when these challenges intersect with the primary reasons they seek therapy. My goal is to help you understand what is keeping you stuck, reconnect with your strengths, and develop healthier ways to move forward.

I have a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Jacksonville University. I’ve been at Wekiva Springs Center since 2022, and have experience with patients all over the spectrum from mood disorders, to substance abuse disorders, anxiety, PTSD, and psychotic disorders.

I'm Deborah Mondlak, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker based in Hollywood, Florida, specializing in trauma, grief, and life transitions.

My work is grounded in the belief that healing doesn't have to take years. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART), an evidence-based approach that helps people process painful memories and difficult experiences rapidly — often within a few sessions — without requiring you to talk through every detail. I also draw on Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and somatic approaches depending on what each person needs.

I work with adults navigating loss, major life changes, and the aftermath of traumatic experiences. I am also fluent in Spanish and welcome Spanish-speaking clients.

I received my Master of Social Work from Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Yeshiva University and have trained extensively in trauma-focused modalities.

It's difficult making the first phone call, booking an appointment and admitting you need help. Whether it's depression, anxiety, a mood disorder or trauma, it's frightening to admit that everything isn't how you want it to be and you don't have all the answers. If you're experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, intrusive thoughts or images, flash backs, numbness or insomnia, there is hope and there is help. I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.

I’m a board-certified Family Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and former Navy Corpsman with over 20 years of medical experience. My background spans oncology, ICU, and community mental health, which allows me to care for clients across the lifespan—from children to older adults—with a well-rounded, compassionate perspective.

I take a holistic, patient-centered approach, focusing on truly understanding your unique needs and goals. In addition to treating conditions like anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and mood disorders, I offer advanced treatment options such as Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT), hormone therapy, and ketamine infusion therapy for those who haven’t found relief with traditional approaches.

I offer no judgement and offer a space for you to safely discuss any issues you're navigating. I help you to move forward feeling feeling empowered and autonomous.

I began my career working with children and quickly expanded my expertise to include adults and couples. Throughout my 26 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have seen the incredible power of the human spirit to overcome trauma and unexpected life struggles. Watching my clients transition from "surviving" to "thriving" remains the most inspiring part of my work.

Jeffry has over a decade of clinical experience working with adults and adolescents. He is a licensed clinician in the state of Florida, New Jersey, and New York. Since graduating from The University of Central Florida with Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in clinical social work, he has been committed to implementing a holistic approach to psychotherapy.

My goal is to help you overcome the challenges you are facing in a safe and comfortable environment to help you improve your quality of life. My passion is helping those with substance use disorders, including alcohol and opioid use disorder, safely detox from the substances and work towards a meaningful and long-lasting recovery. With a decade of experience serving a wide range of patients I am a dual-certified family nurse practitioner and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner.

I am a dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 15 years of healthcare experience caring for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I earned my BSN from Nova Southeastern University, MSN-FNP from the University of South Alabama, Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from the University of Florida, and Post-Master's PMHNP certificate from Wilkes University.

My background includes intensive care, family medicine, urgent care, oncology, thoracic surgery, correctional healthcare, and outpatient psychiatry. This diverse experience allows me to understand the connection between physical and mental health while providing compassionate, evidence-based care.

I specialize in evaluating and treating anxiety, depression, panic disorder, PTSD and trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, insomnia, stress and burnout, adjustment disorders, grief, relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, women's mental health, postpartum depression and anxiety, and life transitions. I also work with individuals experiencing emotional dysregulation, caregiver stress, and co-occurring mental health conditions.

My approach is collaborative, holistic, and individualized. I combine medication management with evidence-based therapy techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, psychoeducation, and strengths-based interventions. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their journey.

I strive to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment where you can openly discuss your concerns and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I’m Janet Crisp, MSW, LCSW, CSAT-C, a trauma-informed therapist and founder of NuYu Counseling Center.

I help individuals, parents, and families heal from pain that feels too heavy to carry alone. Whether that’s trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, abuse, relationship difficulties, sex addiction, or addiction.

I also support betrayed partners as they navigate the shock, anger, grief, loss of trust, and uncertainty that can follow betrayal.

In addition, I work with teens and adults who struggle with anger, emotional regulation, and/or unhealthy behavioral patterns.

My approach blends CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychoeducation with compassion and accountability.

You don’t need to have it all figured out — you just need to take the first step. I’ll meet you where you are and help you move toward healing, growth, and a New You. 🌱
