I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. My dual certification allows me to approach care holistically — understanding both the psychiatric and medical factors that impact overall wellness.
I have experience working with individuals experiencing mood disorders, anxiety, trauma-related conditions, behavioral concerns, and severe mental illness. I believe mental health care should be collaborative, respectful, and individualized. Every client’s story is unique, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. My goal is not only symptom relief but helping you build stability, insight, and long-term wellness.
Have you been feeling stuck in your thoughts, in your relationships, or in life as a whole? Do you experience unmanageable stress or anxiety? Or do you experience what seems like a loop of intrusive thoughts, then repetitive behaviors or habits that lead you to believe that you may have OCD? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you don’t have to go this path alone. Together, we can begin a transformative journey, where treatment becomes your pathway to greater relief.
Clients should know that I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of healthcare experience, including extensive work in inpatient psychiatric stabilization, crisis services, and dual-diagnosis treatment. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care to individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan.
My practice is grounded in creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I am deeply committed to helping clients improve their emotional well-being, strengthen resilience, and achieve greater balance and fulfillment in their lives.
My name is Tom Kauffmann and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I was awarded a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Utah in 2015, where I attended classes on their campus in Salt Lake City. I also graduated from a one year licensed alcohol and drug counseling program (LADC) in 2013 at the same university prior to getting my Master's degree. I specialize in using cognitive behavioral techniques and strategies to help folks investigate how they think about things.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Palm Bay, FL
Searching for therapists in Palm Bay starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, trauma, or work stress. As you compare options, look for specialties, therapy styles, and background that connect to your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Palm Bay is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person options may vary by schedule, location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Florida while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. You may also want to consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before the first session. Reading profiles before booking can give you a clearer sense of communication style, session structure, and what the therapist typically helps people address.
Therapy in Palm Bay can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, review estimated costs after you enter your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready. This makes it easier to compare fit, coverage, and availability in one place.
