Therapist

Hi, I’m Jennifer Haynes, LMHC, a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Florida Qualified Supervisor (LMHC). I specialize in helping clients who feel overwhelmed, reactive, stuck, or emotionally drained build stability through skills-based, trauma-informed therapy.

My work integrates DBT skills, neuroscience-informed psychotherapy, and evidence-informed strategies to improve emotional regulation, reduce anxiety and triggers, strengthen boundaries, and support healthier relationships. I also have specialized training in personality disorder treatment, anger management, advanced grief counseling, and parent coaching, with an added focus on the mind–body connection (sleep, stress, and nutrition-informed mental wellness).

My style is warm, direct, and collaborative—focused on real tools and measurable progress. I offer individual therapy, closed groups (5–8 members), and therapy intensives for deeper targeted work.

Nicole McCray

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Clients should know that I’m down-to-earth, non-judgmental, and a genuine person. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be real—no masks, no pressure, no shame. I bring warmth and care into the room, along with a sense of humor when it’s helpful, because healing doesn’t always have to feel heavy to be meaningful.

I’m also solution-focused and collaborative. That means we’ll spend time understanding what’s going on, but we won’t get stuck there. We’ll work together to identify practical tools, coping strategies, and small, realistic steps that can help you feel better in your day-to-day life. Above all, I care deeply about meeting you where you are and supporting you in a way that feels respectful, empowering, and aligned with your goals. If you do not see your insurance provider listed and you are interested in private pay, please email me at [email protected] or find me on Psychology today under Nicole McCray and send me a message.
