Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Sarasota, FL

I specialize in evidence-based treatments for patients suffering from anxiety, OCD, Depression, and trauma related disorders. These treatments are more effective and efficient than traditional therapy because they directly target symptoms. I provide specific exercises aimed at breaking behavioral patterns that maintain symptoms. Traditional psychotherapy emphasizes gaining insight which in itself often does not lead to symptom reduction. Changing what you do will you change how you feel.

I am a bilingual Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides care in English and Spanish. I enjoy helping children and adults feel more understood, supported, and hopeful about their mental health. I work with concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, sleep difficulties, mood changes, and focus challenges. My goal is to make care feel comfortable, practical, and centered on what matters most to you.

I am Sandra MacSweeney, MHA, FNP-C, PMHNP-C, APRN, a dual-certified family and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I lead BFF Clinic — Behavior Functional Focus, with care in the Sarasota and Port Charlotte area and in Volusia County, including New Smyrna Beach and DeLand. I have more than 20 years in healthcare.

I treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, sleep disorders, and related conditions, in person and by telehealth, including evenings and Saturdays. Visits are available in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. My training covers both medication management and the medical issues that often sit underneath psychiatric symptoms: hormones, thyroid, nutrition, inflammation, and metabolic health.

My name is Jocee Sevilla. I am a LCSW. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults living with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, OCD, Tourette Syndrome/ Tic Disorders, Autism, Chronic Illness, and Trauma. I completed my BSW and MSW at the University of West Florida. I have five years of experience working with youth and adults in inpatient, residential, outpatient, PHP, and IOP settings. I also have experience working with children in the school setting. My therapy office is a warm, inviting, non-judgmental setting where clients have the opportunity to explore what brought them to therapy. I am energetic, caring, and look forward to getting to be a part of your story.

I am a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner dedicated to delivering patient-centered care to people of all ages. Throughout the 20 years I have worked in mental health, I have worked with individuals in all stages of the therapeutic journey. I specialize in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorders and OCD, in addition to other conditions.

I trained in medicine before I became a therapist, and it changed what I listen for. When a client tells me her chest tightens before every meeting, or that she can't stop thinking about a diagnosis, I take the physical side of that seriously.

I hold a PhD in health psychology and I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois and Florida. My published research is on post-traumatic growth in women. Since 2020 I've also taught graduate counseling and psychology as an adjunct professor.

I see adults dealing with trauma and complex trauma, chronic illness, health anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions. I work with women through perinatal and postpartum struggles and through fertility challenges. I also see adolescents.

I speak English, Hindi, Arabic, and Urdu. If you're dealing with immigration, acculturation, or family expectations that don't translate easily, you won't have to explain that context to me first.

I have been an LCSW for over 15 years, and anxiety is where I do my deepest work..the racing thoughts, the physical tension, the constant "what if" that won't quiet down. I also work with clients navigating depression, major life changes, grief and divorce. But if anxiety is running the show in your life, that is exactly where I want to start.

Sometimes the way you learned to cope is no longer helping you live the life you want. You may turn to substances when emotions become overwhelming, find yourself reacting with anger you later regret, or feel trapped between anxiety, depression, and painful experiences from your past. These struggles can begin affecting your relationships, family, confidence, and ability to recognize yourself. I provide virtual individual and family therapy in English and Spanish for adolescents, adults, and seniors throughout Florida, with a focus on substance use and addiction, anxiety, depression, anger management, and trauma. I also support clients navigating family and relationship issues, PTSD, grief and loss, stress, major life transitions, women’s issues, maternal mental health, identity concerns, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and eating disorders when these challenges intersect with the primary reasons they seek therapy. My goal is to help you understand what is keeping you stuck, reconnect with your strengths, and develop healthier ways to move forward.
