Find a therapist in Lehigh Acres, FL — covered by insurance

Welcome! Taking the first step toward mental health treatment can feel overwhelming, and I believe finding the right provider should feel comfortable and supportive. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free environment where patients feel heard, respected, and genuinely supported throughout their care.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in emergency medicine as a Registered Nurse, along with experience in outpatient psychiatry and interventional mental health treatment settings. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, stress, and treatment-resistant mood conditions.

True healing isn't just about managing symptoms — it's about addressing the whole person.

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who believes that lasting stability and happiness require working on three levels: your physical experience, your emotional patterns, and your spiritual wellbeing. When all three are addressed together, real change becomes possible.

I work with clients to identify what's getting in the way of the life they want — and build the tools, insight, and coping strategies to actually get there.

My intention is to provide a judgment-free space where we can talk about what is going on and collaborate to move forwards in the best way possible. I am flexible in my approach to counseling, and I tailor my counseling style based on the needs of each person I work with. I enjoy working with a wide range of clients (age, gender, concerns, etc.) and I am passionate about what I do. I am into fitness and healthy lifestyle, and I support my clients with creating their own foundation of wellness.

I don't believe anyone's story is ever over. Life can leave us carrying burdens we never expected. Anxiety, depression, broken relationships, grief, trauma, addiction, or simply the weight of holding everything together can make it feel like peace is out of reach. But I believe that pain does not define you, and it does not get the final word. As a Christian counselor, it is my mission to help people find hope and strength in the middle of life's hardest moments. Healing doesn't pretend the past never happened, but it does mean that your wounds don't have to control your future. I utilize a mix of evidence based practices, which includes trauma informed care, that align with God's design to help you get as close as you can to the peace you were designed to live with.

If you are caring for someone with a serious illness, raising a child with complex needs, or running on empty after years of putting everyone else first — this is the right place.

You already know how to show up for the people you love. What's harder is asking for something for yourself. Many of my clients waited longer than they should have before reaching out, because they felt guilty, or because they convinced themselves they could handle it alone. If that sounds familiar, I want you to know: getting support isn't a sign that you're struggling. It's a sign that you're paying attention.

I am a Doctorally prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals and families through some of life's most demanding chapters — serious illness, end-of-life care, caregiving, grief, and the particular kind of burnout that comes from loving someone with complex needs. My hospice and palliative care background has shaped the way I work: with deep respect for what people are carrying, and a focus on dignity, whole-person care, and what actually helps in real life.

I am also a parent of a child with Down syndrome. I know what it means to receive a diagnosis that reshapes your family's future. I've navigated IEP meetings, medical appointments, the emotional complexity of caregiving, and the way people who love you still don't quite understand. That lived experience is not separate from my clinical work — it's at the center of it. When you sit across from me, you won't have to explain yourself from the beginning. www.anchorfamilybh.com

My specialties include trauma, relationships, supervision, and medical issues. I will help you be more conscious of your thoughts, emotions, and body and thus reach your potential.

My previous education in biology and neuropsychology has provided me with knowledge that is invaluable, especially during trauma work. Because I find both Eastern and Western psychological practices useful, I integrate many tools and therapies into the sessions and tailor treatment to each individual.

I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and proud U.S. Army veteran committed to helping adults find balance and healing. I provide evidence-based, compassionate care for anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress-related conditions. My goal is to create a calm, respectful environment where every client—veteran or civilian—feels seen, supported, and understood. I combine medication management with practical coping strategies and therapy-informed guidance to promote lasting well-being.

If you keep finding yourself in the same arguments, the same shutdowns, or the same loop of feeling more reactive than you want to be, you are not broken. There is often a younger version of you driving the bus in those moments. I work with teens, adults, and women navigating relationship strain, family of origin patterns, anxiety, and grief, including the kind that does not involve a death. Clients describe me as warm, steady, and easy to talk to, and they often say I notice what they did not realize they were sharing.

Welcome! I'm Juliet Araujo, LCSW, BCBA who is passionate about helping people overcome life's challenges and build meaningful, lasting change. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, understood, and never judged. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma, self-esteem issues, and parenting challenges. I also have extensive experience supporting neurodivergent individuals, including those with autism and ADHD, helping them build emotional regulation, confidence, healthy relationships, and greater independence.

In addition to my clinical work, I am frequently invited to appear on national television to provide expert guidance on mental health, parenting, and emotional well-being.

I am bilingual in English and Spanish and enjoy working with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds.

TEENS- Navigating the teen and young adult years can be a rollercoaster ride. Life can throw all sorts of challenges your way, from anxiety and depression to tricky friends and family dynamics, along with the ups and downs of self-esteem. My goal is to help make that journey a little smoothers.
