Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Palm Bay, FL

I am currently accepting new clients. If you’ve been carrying the weight of past trauma, feeling stuck in anxiety, or struggling to move forward despite your best efforts, you’re not alone. I work with adults from diverse backgrounds who are ready to process painful experiences, build resilience, and reconnect with a sense of safety and control. Healing is possible—and therapy can be a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward at your own pace.

Hi! My name is Frances and I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist based in Mahopac with over 30 years of experience

CURRECTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS.

Hey there! If you’re here, chances are something feels heavy right now. Maybe your child is struggling with anxiety, emotional outbursts, or confidence. Maybe your teen feels overwhelmed, shut down, or exhausted from trying to hold it together. Or maybe you’re the one carrying anxiety, trauma, self-doubt, or emotional burnout. I primarily work with children, teens, and young adults who are tired of surviving and ready to feel more grounded, connected, and emotionally safe. I also work with adults and parents seeking support, healing, and lasting change.

Currently, I offer telehealth sessions only. Please reach out by phone or email to get started. In person sessions will be available this Fall!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of FL. I have over 5 years of experience helping children, teens and adults struggling with their mental health. I hold additional certification in the trauma-informed Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a listening-based intervention designed to help regulate the nervous system and support emotional healing. I also utilize treatment modalities of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Play therapy.

Grief, loss, anxiety, and depression can make everyday life feel harder to navigate. I support clients working through bereavement, end-of-life concerns, anxiety, and depression in online therapy. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina, with 17 years of experience. I want you to feel heard, respected, and supported as you make sense of what you’re carrying. If you’re looking for a compassionate space to talk openly, I welcome you to reach out.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience supporting adults, older children, and families navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, and life transitions. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood, so I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental environment where clients can show up authentically and feel comfortable exploring difficult emotions and experiences.

My work is centered around helping clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. I’m passionate about empowering clients to build self-confidence, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop practical tools that support long-term growth and resilience. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or simply looking for support through a challenging season of life, therapy can provide space for healing, clarity, and meaningful change.

I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from Florida International University and have spent my career helping individuals and families move toward healthier, more balanced lives.

I support those navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress management challenges, including panic disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and sleep disorders. I work with individuals experiencing grief and bereavement, end of life issues, infertility, chronic conditions such as diabetes, and other health-related disabilities that impact emotional well-being. My practice also supports clients living with bipolar disorder (also known as manic depressive illness), attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD), eating disorders, alcohol and substance abuse concerns, anger management and impulse control difficulties, and complex family or relationship issues.

I'm glad you're here.

Hi, I'm Sandra.

Life can feel overwhelming at times. You may be feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, or simply wondering how to move forward. Whether you're navigating a life transition, grief, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck, you don't have to go through it alone.

I believe healing begins when we feel truly heard. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, certified school counselor, and educator, I enjoy helping women, teens, and young adults find hope, healing, and practical tools for life's challenges.

Our first session is simply a conversation. I'll take time to listen, understand your story, and learn what matters most to you. We'll work together at a pace that feels right for you and create goals that fit your unique needs.

Clients often tell me they leave sessions feeling heard, hopeful, and with practical tools they can begin using right away. Some have even shared that therapy feels like talking with a trusted friend while also gaining meaningful insight and growth.

If faith is important to you, I'm happy to thoughtfully integrate Christian faith into our work together.
