I provide a compassionate, welcoming place where you feel genuinely understood and valued. Specializing in teens and adults navigating trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges, I draw on over a decade of clinical experience working with clients in multiple treatment settings. Having witnessed extraordinary resilience and strength in clients, I believe in people. My goal is to support your healing and growth at your own pace—as you discover what truly matters to you and how you choose to show up in your life.
I am Sandra MacSweeney, MHA, FNP-C, PMHNP-C, APRN, a dual-certified family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I lead BFF Clinic — Behavior Functional Focus, with care in the Sarasota and Port Charlotte area and in Volusia County, including New Smyrna Beach and DeLand. I have more than 20 years in healthcare.
I treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, sleep disorders, and related conditions, in person and by telehealth, including evenings and Saturdays. Visits are available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. My training covers both medication management and the medical issues that often sit underneath psychiatric symptoms: hormones, thyroid, nutrition, inflammation, and metabolic health.
I am a laid back, caring professional.Lets discuss your feelings and concerns and together make a plan to solve your issues. Learn strategies to deal with stress, anxiety and depression. Improve communication with friends and family. Cognitive behavioral and solution focused. Over 30 years in private practice.
I have nearly a decade of experience working with a variety of individuals with many backgrounds. I emphasize the importance of a trauma-informed and supportive approach. I have expertise in treating a number of diagnoses, including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and trauma. I offer a number of modalities, including CBT, MI, DBT, EMDR and IFS.
I’ve spent years sitting with people at their lowest—through addiction, crisis, and the kind of pain that can make life feel unmanageable. That work taught me something I bring into every session now: nobody is “too much,” and no story is too messy. These days, I’m more focused on slower, steadier work. Whether you’re worn down by depression, gripping through stress, or finally ready to be honest about drinking or using, I’ll meet you where you are with steadiness, honesty, and compassion. You don’t need the right words yet; we’ll figure it out together.
