Dr. Robert Fowler

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Panama City Beach, FL


With over 10 years of experience as a licensed clinical social worker, I’ve supported individuals through some of the most challenging moments in their lives—including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and substance use.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start, you’re not alone. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we can work through what’s going on and begin finding a path forward that feels realistic and manageable.

My background in healthcare settings has given me experience working with both mental health and medical challenges, allowing me to take a more holistic view of what you’re going through.

Jenna Green

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Hi, I’m Jenna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor offering an affirming, judgment-free space for adults who want to understand themselves a little better and build a life that actually feels like their own.

I specialize in trauma and grief, helping people make sense of experiences that have changed them, navigate loss in all its forms, and find a way forward without feeling like they have to erase or “get over” what happened.

I especially enjoy working with LGBTQ+ clients, creatives, healthcare professionals, and people navigating anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, self-worth, and life transitions. I have a particular interest in supporting healthcare professionals who carry the emotional weight of caring for others, process difficult or traumatic experiences, cope with loss, or try to reconnect with themselves after burnout.
