ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Longwood, FL

Choosing a therapist is one of the most personal decisions you’ll make, and I believe feeling genuinely understood is the foundation of meaningful change. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Palm Beach Atlantic University and have spent over a decade working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, relationship challenges, life transitions, and other complex mental health concerns across diverse levels of care.

My style is warm, authentic, and collaborative while remaining grounded in evidence-based treatment. I strive to create a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, supported enough to grow, and empowered to make lasting changes that extend well beyond our sessions. My goal isn’t simply to help you cope—it’s to help you build a life that feels more connected, balanced, and aligned with who you truly are.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, and I'm glad you're here. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida, with more than 16 years of experience helping children (ages 8+), adolescents, and adults navigate life's challenges in a warm, affirming, and solution-focused environment. I provide therapy in English and Spanish and support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, adjustment challenges, separation, grief, and loss. My goal is to help you feel heard, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools to create meaningful and lasting change.

Meet Teri Roessler-Kennedy, APRN, PMHNP-BC, FNP-C

Hello, and welcome. I am Teri Roessler-Kennedy, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care.

I began my nursing career over 10 years ago as a Registered Nurse, working in a variety of specialties including neonatal, emergency, correctional, geriatric, and nursing education. I earned my nursing degree from North Florida Community College and later received my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nursing administration from Thomas University. In 2019, I completed my Family Nurse Practitioner training at Regis College in Weston, Massachusetts, and became certified through the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP).

Recognizing the growing need for mental health services in rural communities, I returned to school to further my education and became an ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in February 2024.

My goal is to provide personalized care that helps patients improve their mental health, overall well-being, and quality of life. I treat adolescents and adults with a variety of mental health conditions, including:

• ADHD
• Depression
• Anxiety
• PTSD
• Bipolar Disorder
• Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders

I am committed to creating a supportive, judgment-free environment where patients feel heard, respected, and empowered in their treatment journey.

Currently accepting new psychiatric patients in Live Oak, Madison, Lake City, Jasper, and Surrounding areas in Florida.

I know that reaching out for support isn't always easy, so however you got here, I'm glad you did. I work with adults and couples navigating a wide range of experiences, including anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, ADHD, anger and impulse challenges, stress, and issues that arise specifically for women. A lot of the people I see are carrying more than they let on and are simply looking for a space where they can set it down for a while.

Something I care deeply about, both in my own life and in the work we do together, is balance. Life is full, and it's easy to lose track of the things that keep us steady: rest, connection, time for yourself, the people you love. Part of what I hope to help you find is a way of living that feels sustainable and true to what matters most to you.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) who works with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma-related concerns, insomnia, and other mental health challenges. I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management while creating a supportive, respectful, and judgment-free environment. My goal is to help you better understand your symptoms, develop effective coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting improvement in your mental well-being.

You might be the one everyone relies on—the one who keeps it together—but lately, you feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected from yourself. Maybe your anxiety is constant, your relationship no longer feels fulfilling, or you keep finding yourself in the same frustrating patterns and don’t know how to break them.

I work with teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and relationship challenges—especially those who feel stuck between comfort and change. Together, we’ll create a space where you can be real (not just “okay”) while learning practical ways to feel more grounded, confident, and clear about what you truly want.

Whether you’re navigating stress, relationship uncertainty, or just feeling “off,” therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and move forward with intention.

Hi! My name is Tara, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience in the profession. I’ve primarily worked with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Healing can feel overwhelming and seeking help can be one of the hardest parts of beginning a healing journey; so congratulations on taking that step!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience providing individual and family therapy to children, adolescents and adults. My clinical background includes work with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, foster care youth, and individual navigating high-stress life transitions.

As a bilingual therapist (English and Haitian Creole), I am especially passionate about supporting individuals and families within multicultural communities where mental health may be misunderstood or stigmatized. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to grow.

From the moment you walk in, or log on, you'll feel the difference. My goal is for therapy to feel less like an appointment and more like a conversation with someone genuinely in your corner. I'm warm, direct, and deeply committed to helping you move forward, not just talk in circles. I bring both English and Spanish to our sessions, so you can show up fully in whichever language feels most like you. Whether you're navigating anxiety or just trying to figure out your next move, I'm here to help you get unstuck and actually feel better — not someday, but step by step, starting now.
