LGBT therapists in Milton, FL

Jeanna treats people with depression, anxiety, bipolar , substance use disorders , couples counseling , trauma and LBGTQ+ issues. She is passionate about optimal health in her professional and personal life and draws from a rich history of eastern philosophies and western science to meet the needs of her clients.

I know that sometimes asking for help can be difficult. Rest assured, we all need help at one time or another in our lives. I am dedicated to helping children, teens and adults discover their unique voice and express themselves in a safe, supportive and nonjudgemental space. With a warm, client-centered approach, I specialize in guiding individuals through life's challenges---whether it's anxiety, trauma, emotional regulation, racial identity exploration, stress or family dynamics.

Drawing from twenty years of experience in education and principal of therapeutic schools, I have developed the art of conflict resolution with reticent learners, with parents, with couples and individuals. I have the skillset to support people and transform their perceptions of self to cope with communication issues, anger, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and trauma. My empathetic approach offers people to find positive and creative techniques. I am highly gifted in working to establish and enhance relationships between parent and child/husband and wife using conflict resolution to create opportunities. As a clinician of almost ten years, I interact exceedingly well with individuals and couples to support positive communication and achieve personal growth whether it be in a marriage, parenting/school skills, or within oneself. My understanding, compassion, and acceptance of people when they enter therapy create a safe and trusting environment to unpack problems and develop strategies that enhance well-being, stability, and alternative perspectives on how to address struggles/conflicts.

Struggling with mental health or addiction? Let's talk.

My education has consistently been geared toward my goal of humbly understanding the human experience.

Prior to licensure in 2019, I held over 14 years of human-service work experience. I am dedicated to creating and maintaining an atmosphere of respect and acceptance.

My journey toward becoming a Licensed Mental Health Counselor was significantly influenced by my graduate program at Rollins College, as well as by my undergraduate years at the University of Florida. Working with emerging adults, especially those in the LGBTQ+ community, affords me the opportunity to channel my life experiences into empathy for my clients. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I recognize that mental health and well-being are informed by having the confidence and courage to live as one's authentic self. I strive to help my clients do this within the framework of the identities they hold and experiences they've had.

I have worked with diverse populations in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric stabilization, homeless prevention, and integrated healthcare. These experiences have allowed me to develop an eclectic skill-set with a person-centered approach. I love being a social worker and having the privilege of helping others heal and grow.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of New York. My approach to therapy is warm, open-minded, collaborative, and supportive. Throughout that process, I use an integrative

approach utilizing DBT, CBT, strength-based therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I specialize in

couples’ therapy, and treatment resistant individual therapy.

Making the decision to start therapy is a profound investment of your time, energy, and vulnerability. If you are looking for a blank-slate clinician who simply nods and listens, we might not be the best fit. I offer a highly engaged, malleable, and unflinching partnership.

My approach is rooted in the belief that while the work of untangling our lives is deeply structural, the room itself doesn't always have to feel heavy. I bring a grounded warmth to my practice—which means knowing how to sit quietly in the gravity of a difficult truth, but also knowing when to break the tension, exhale, and find the light in the sheer complexity of being human. I won’t just sit in silence while you do all the heavy lifting; I am an active collaborator who adapts to exactly where you are.

Hi there!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I have an educational background of school counseling and as a teacher. I enjoy helping clients realize their potential while prioritizing their mental health. My counseling focus is with adolescents to adult-aged clients.

I am licensed in Florida with multiple years of experience. I have experience in helping clients with mental health problems. Currently, my focus is Anxiety and Depression.

I believe that therapy is a journey that first begins with the courage to heal. Therapy should be a safe place to heal, discover, grow, and find moments of selah--which means to pause and reflect. The following quote sums up what I believe the healing process looks like: “Life is like an onion; you peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep” (Carl Sandburg).

I believe every person has the capacity to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and bring experience working with individuals, couples, adolescents, and families from diverse backgrounds. As a bilingual counselor, I provide therapy in both English and Spanish.

I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, trauma, grief, life transitions, betrayal and infidelity, self-esteem challenges, and stress. I also enjoy supporting couples who want to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and deepen emotional connection.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. For clients who desire it, I can thoughtfully integrate Christian faith into the counseling process while welcoming individuals from all beliefs and backgrounds.

I earned both my Bachelor of Social Work and Master of Social Work Degrees from Adelphi University in Garden City, New York. I am licensed in the state of New York. I am a dedicated professional with a passion for working with individuals, couples, and families.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen without having to over-explain yourself. My role is to help you reconnect with your strengths, deepen your relationships, and move through life with greater self-trust and ease.
