I completed my undergraduate studies at Florida International University. I obtained a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling at Nova Southeastern University and completed both a master’s and doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Albizu University.

Are you navigating grief, chronic illness or a rare disease, or a major life transition? Maybe you grew up in a family impacted by addiction, conflict, or instability, and want to explore how those experiences are showing up in your life today. These experiences can shape your boundaries, self-worth, and sense of responsibility for others—often influencing relationships, personal growth, and even physical health. In therapy, we’ll explore how your past and present connect, process what you’ve been carrying, and begin to shift patterns that no longer serve you—so you can move forward with greater clarity and self-trust.
I've been working in this field over 11 years. I received my masters degree in 2013 and have obtained multiple trainings and certifications since then to best help the clients I work with.
I have experience working in Community Mental Health and private practice along with working for the military.
I really enjoy helping the LGBTQIA+ community, working with other therapists, helping those with chronic issues including health, pain and life stressors. I love helping people live their best lives.
Hi, I’m Casey. As a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and the founder of Nexus Psychiatric Services, I built this practice for people seeking exceptional clinical care from an approachable, down-to-earth provider.
My professional foundation comes from my years of experience in the acute inpatient psychiatric setting. Navigating these high-intensity settings taught me to bring calming stability to those who are struggling, and I carry that into every outpatient telehealth visit. Today, my practice supports adults, adolescents, and children ages 6 and up through the everyday challenges that arrive when living with diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. Beyond general psychiatric care, I offer a deep clinical commitment to neurodivergent individuals and those suffering from identity issues. Whether you are feeling exhausted by life, exploring your identity, or trying to help your child thrive, you are welcome to show up to our sessions exactly as you are.
Welcome! I'm here to offer you a safe space to work through past or current trauma, anxiety, or depression.
I have over a decade of experience as a licensed mental health counselor and consider myself a lifelong learner. As a therapist who has been in therapy, I have seen the benefits in my personal and professional life.
I received my bachelor’s of arts degree in psychology from West Chester University and my Master’s of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Gannon University.
Hi, I’m Courtney. I want more for you than just getting through another week. I know reaching out can feel overwhelming, but you’ve already taken the first step. With a background in high-stress environments, I specialize in helping people find calm in the middle of their personal storms.
I have specific experience supporting parents of children with difficult behaviors, including those in biological, foster, or kinship roles.
I work from a Christian perspective, though faith is only integrated into our sessions if you choose.
I love helping others overcome mental obstacles to allow them to reach their goals. I strongly value the therapeutic relationship and use it as a catalyst for positive change. I have over 8 years of experience in private practice and have helped people through a wide range of issues. I have unique experience in sport and performance psychology. I have two post undergraduate degrees in mental health counseling from Indiana University and an undergraduate degree in psychology from Butler University. I bring my knowledge, experience, and value system to each of my clients.
I am a board-certified nurse practitioner specializing in mental health. I am dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care. I work with individuals across the lifespan to address conditions such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. Using a patient-centered approach, my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard and empowered in their healing journey.
It's difficult making the first phone call, booking an appointment and admitting you need help. Whether it's depression, anxiety, a mood disorder or trauma, it's frightening to admit that everything isn't how you want it to be and you don't have all the answers. If you're experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, intrusive thoughts or images, flash backs, numbness or insomnia, there is hope and there is help. I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.
Whether this is your first time experience with therapy or you’re returning after some time away, my goal is to provide a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you feel comfortable being yourself and sharing your story at your own pace. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, relationship concerns, life transitions, and other emotional challenges.
I'm a therapist in private practice based in Florida, working with clients via telehealth from the comfort of my home - golden retrievers included. I've been in the mental health field since 2011, starting with residential treatment for women navigating addiction and dual diagnoses, then outpatient, and now private practice. I work with adults dealing with anxiety, life transitions, and the kind of stress that piles up when everything seems to be happening at once - and I bring warmth, humor, and a whole lot of genuine care to every session.
I am a healthy 63 year old male who feels and relates like someone much younger but has the experience and wisdom to counteract that. I have been divorced and then successfully blended a family of 8 so have can practice what I preach
With more than 30 years of experience as a clinical psychologist, I am passionate about helping adults and older adults navigate life’s emotional, psychological, and cognitive challenges. I provide psychotherapy, cognitive rehabilitation, and neuropsychological evaluations, with particular experience supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, memory concerns, adjustment issues, and the impact of aging or medical conditions. My approach is compassionate, respectful, and individualized, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to improve your quality of life.
