Ernestine Lambert

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I've spent over five decades in mental health — from inpatient psychiatric settings to outpatient care — which means I've sat with people in some of their most difficult moments and helped them find a way through. I work with adults and seniors navigating bipolar disorder, grief, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, OCD, addiction, and complex challenges like dual diagnosis. I'm LGBTQ+ affirming and bring a direct, open-minded approach that honors who you are. Sessions are virtual, so you can access care from wherever you're most comfortable — your home, your car, wherever works for you.

Halie Banaghan

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I got my start working in a residential setting, supporting people through serious mental health challenges, trauma, and addiction. That experience shaped how I see therapy, it’s not just clinical, it’s about feeling understood and not alone in what you’re going through. I now work with people dealing with things like trauma, emotional ups and downs, and substance use, and I’m trained in EMDR. While I have experience with more intense situations, I also work with people who feel stuck, reactive, or disconnected and want to understand why.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Florida


I believe healing is most effective when we care for the whole person, not just the diagnosis. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, mood disorders, and other mental health concerns.

My practice combines comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and trauma-informed care with an understanding of the mind-body connection. I also provide ketamine-assisted treatment for appropriate candidates and incorporate integrative approaches, including nervous system regulation, mindfulness, breathwork, and evidence-informed energy-based practices when they align with a client’s values and treatment goals.

My role is to create a safe, collaborative space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered as we work toward lasting emotional wellness and improved quality of life.
