Yu Wang

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Clermont, FL


I became a mental health provider because I believe everyone deserves to be heard.

My practice is built on a level of clinical depth that sets my care apart: my background includes extensive hands-on experience in high-acuity inpatient psychiatric units, comprehensive outpatient clinics, and active service as a Mental Health Nurse in the U.S. Air Force.

At Mental Clarity Psychiatry, I take an integrative, unhurried approach to whole-person care, focusing on how your physical health, lifestyle, and unique life story impact your mind. My goal is to build a partnership based on true trust rather than just managing symptoms, combining clinical expertise with personalized guidance to help you find a sustainable path back to yourself.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • St. Cloud, FL


Life can be full of different stressors, which is where I can help. I will provide a warm, non-judgmental, safe, and interactive environment where we take on complex subjects, deep-seated traumas, or for you to say the things you've never told anyone before. I understand these are difficult subjects to speak about, and I will build a therapeutic relationship with you so that you feel strong enough to share. By doing this, we can form realistic and attainable goals to establish growth and promote healing. Remember that healing is not linear. The best gift you can give yourself is to master the chaos & find a way around it.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Ocala, FL


Hi! I am Dr. Jessica Turner-Evans, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional, and Qualified Supervisor.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, respected, understood, and empowered. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, develop practical tools for navigating challenges, and create meaningful and sustainable changes in your life.

My graduate school experiences centered around mental health and school counseling. My undergraduate background is in psychology and with most recent post-doc experience from Harvard University, I have a unique perspective of focusing on the mind, body, spirit, and emotional well-being.

I have extensive experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and major changes in their personal or professional lives. My clinical and professional work has also included a particular focus on maternal mental health, postpartum experiences, racial and cultural stressors, and overall emotional wellness.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Lake Mary

Searching for therapists in Lake Mary starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match what you want to work on. A bio that mentions cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or experience with specific concerns can help you decide whether a therapist may be a strong fit.

Lake Mary is a smaller market, so your nearby in-person options may be more limited than they would be in a larger city. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Florida while still letting you work with a licensed therapist who fits your schedule. As you narrow your options, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before booking can also show how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Lake Mary can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists, compare availability, verify your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new patients.
