Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Pompano Beach, FL

As a dedicated mental health professional with a background as a first responder, I understand the profound impact trauma and addiction can have on individuals. I specialize in helping those facing trauma, addiction, and mood disorders by employing evidence-based therapies tailored to every client’s unique needs. I have spent my life working with high-intensity populations and have had the privilege of creating supportive environments, fostering resilience, and helping people achieve lasting recovery. Together, we can navigate your path to healing.

I am Dr. Stephanie Couyoute, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of Avenmind Health Group. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from Palm Beach Atlantic University and bring more than 15 years of healthcare experience, including critical care, outpatient psychiatry, inpatient child and adolescent care, and older adult mental health. I provide virtual psychiatric evaluations and medication management for clients ages 16 and older experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma-related symptoms, sleep difficulties, stress, grief, and other mental health concerns.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable, heard, and supported. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), wife, and mother, I understand that life can be both rewarding and challenging. Through my own life experiences, I have gained insight into the complexities of relationships, family responsibilities, career demands, and personal growth. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples facing concerns such as anxiety, stress, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Clients often describe me as warm, approachable, and easy to talk to. My goal is to help you gain insight, develop practical tools, and move toward meaningful growth and healing while feeling supported every step of the way.

Navigating a difficult relationship, struggling with a life transition, or just unsure how to proceed in making your life what you want it to be? I provide a supportive and totally non-judgmental environment for you to explore your options and figure out concrete ways to move forward.

I offer every interested person a free phone consultation, which gives you a chance to ask questions, share your story and learn more about who I am and how I can help you. No pressure, and no strings attached. If you’re ready to reclaim your life, it’s a great first step.
