Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Jacksonville, FL

If you find yourself constantly overwhelmed by "what-ifs", emotionally drained by workplace demands, or feeling disconnected from your relationships, your body and mind are telling you it's time for a pause. Anxiety, grief, and burnout often make life feel like a daily survival test rather than a life you actually get to live.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Certified Employee Assistance Professional (CEAP), I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, substance abuse, and workplace/career difficulties.

My practice is entirely online, offering you a highly accessible, convenient, and confidential space to focus on your well-being. I'm deeply passionate about what I do - getting to truly listen to your story, hear where you're coming from, and serve as a dedicated, supportive figure in your corner.

When I'm not working with clients, I'm usually following my favorite sports teams, diving into my passion for music, and spending time with my wife and our pets. I look forward to partnering with you on your wellness journey!

Hi! I'm a Bilingual, Catholic therapist specializing in the integration of faith and clinical psychology. I work best with individuals navigating life's complexities (think student pressure, career stress, family life...) and desire a therapist who understands their moral framework. Being from Caracas, Venezuela, I bring a shared cultural perspective that helps me understand the Latin American community. Whether in English or Spanish, I provide a space where you can feel understood culturally, spiritually, and personally.

If your child is dealing with big emotions, school stress, conflict at home, or the ups and downs that can come with ADHD, oppositional behaviors, anxiety, or depression, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I enjoy working with tweens, teens, and young adults, and I help families better understand what’s going on so things can feel less overwhelming and more manageable. My goal is to help your child feel more grounded, understood, and hopeful.
