My name is Beth, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C). I am licensed to practice in the states of Florida and Maryland. I am certified in Perinatal Mental Health, and I have over 30 years of experience working with families in a variety of settings.
Hi my name is Brandy. I specialize in working with clients in crisis
I believe every person has a story worth hearing and inherent strengths worth uncovering. I am committed to culturally humble, authentic care and to meeting you exactly where you are whether you feel overwhelmed, hopeful, exhausted, curious, or somewhere in between. Together, we will build resilience, strengthen your coping skills, and help you reconnect with the parts of yourself that feel steady, capable, and strong.
As a therapist, I have a strong passion for working with pregnancy and the postpartum parent. This includes the whole perinatal period, birth, postpartum, infertility, and loss. In addition to those populations, I have over 12 years of experience working with specializations such as major life transitions, anxiety, adult adhd, depression, PTSD and complex trauma.
I primarily treat patients experiencing anxiety and depression, as well as conditions such as OCD, ADHD, and mood disorders. My approach is holistic, addressing the physiological, cognitive, and emotional aspects of mental health to support overall well-being.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing Practice from the University of Central Florida, I am committed to providing comprehensive, patient-centered care. I believe in treating the whole person—mind, body, and soul—and meeting each individual where they are in their journey.
Seeking support is a sign of strength—something we all need at times. Simply putting words to what you’ve been carrying can feel like a weight lifted. With an objective, supportive partner, you can gain clarity about where you are and where you want to go. When you’re ready, you’re welcome to reach out or schedule an appointment.

Hi, I’m Dr. Deneice, DNP, MBA, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC. I am a doctoral-prepared, board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and owner of Eden Total Care.
I provide concierge-style virtual psychiatric care for young-feeling adults at any age who are navigating anxiety, depression, insomnia, PTSD, PMDD, ADHD, autism-related concerns, mood symptoms, emotional overwhelm, burnout, and diagnostic uncertainty.
My primary role is psychiatric evaluation and medication management. I also incorporate supportive therapy, life coaching, and holistic guidance when appropriate. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and properly treated — not rushed, dismissed, or reduced to a diagnosis.
Appointment Guide:
• New clients: 40-minute initial assessment
• Returning clients: 20-minute follow-up
• Self-Pay clients: may request longer appointments
Please email or message me before booking an appointment to ensure availability. Limited appointment times are available, and emailing directly is the fastest way to get started.
Welcome!
I’m a licensed psychotherapist specializing in trauma and PTSD, as well as mood and anxiety-related concerns. I have experience working in both inpatient and outpatient settings with individuals experiencing a range of mental health concerns. My approach to therapy is down-to-earth, interactive and collaborative. I draw from different therapeutic frameworks and tailor my approach to each client based on their developmental stage, individual needs, preferences and goals. Aside from private practice, I partner with several community-based nonprofit agencies serving children, adolescents and families involved in the foster care system, as well as survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Southern California with a clinical focus in adult mental health. I am also a doctoral candidate at the University of Pennsylvania. I am passionate about this field because it allows me to work across both micro and macro levels at the intersection of behavioral and community healthcare, policy and advocacy. I value the ability to engage in this work through psychotherapy and direct practice, while also understanding and addressing the broader systems, policies, and communities that shape lives. My own lived experience plays a significant role in how I understand and approach this work.

Frequently asked questions


Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health
Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Lakeland
Finding postpartum therapists in Lakeland starts with looking for someone who has experience with concerns that can come up after birth, including postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some therapists may also list maternal mental health therapy, perinatal therapy, or postpartum support in their profiles. A certification such as PMH-C can be a helpful signal of specialized training. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match the support you want.
In a smaller city like Lakeland, local postpartum therapists may have limited in-person availability, so virtual care can expand your options. This can be especially practical when your schedule changes, infant care needs shift, or travel to an office is hard to plan. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, therapy style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their work with postpartum concerns and what a first session may involve.
Therapy in Lakeland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who may accept insurance, offer virtual or in-person care, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage for your specific plan and location. You can compare profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
