Lisa Singeisen

Lisa Singeisen

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Sarasota, FL


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 25 years of experience. My current focus is working with children, adolescents, and young adults between the ages of 2 and 22. My practice is dedicated entirely to this age group because I believe early intervention and meaningful support during formative years can have a lasting, positive impact on a young person's life. I have worked with youth navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral difficulties, and family, social and school-related stress. I often incorporate play therapy techniques into my work with young people, highlighting the ways that children and youth often express and process their experiences most naturally, through creativity and play. I also have a strong commitment to supporting parents as partners in the therapeutic process.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Clermont, FL


I became a mental health provider because I believe everyone deserves to be heard.

My practice is built on a level of clinical depth that sets my care apart: my background includes extensive hands-on experience in high-acuity inpatient psychiatric units, comprehensive outpatient clinics, and active service as a Mental Health Nurse in the U.S. Air Force.

At Mental Clarity Psychiatry, I take an integrative, unhurried approach to whole-person care, focusing on how your physical health, lifestyle, and unique life story impact your mind. My goal is to build a partnership based on true trust rather than just managing symptoms, combining clinical expertise with personalized guidance to help you find a sustainable path back to yourself.

Lindsay Turner

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


Hi, I’m Lindsay Turner, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Boca Raton, Florida.

I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, perfectionism, people-pleasing, self-esteem, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I have a particular interest in helping people who second-guess themselves, feel responsible for everyone else’s happiness, or struggle to feel secure in their relationships. My work often focuses on strengthening self-trust, setting boundaries, and understanding the patterns that influence how we see ourselves and connect with others. I also work with couples to improve communication, navigate conflict, and build emotional connection.

I bring warmth, honesty, curiosity, and a sense of humor to my work. I’m an engaged, down-to-earth therapist who values getting to know you as a person, including your strengths, your experiences, and what makes life meaningful to you. My goal is to help you feel more confident being yourself and create more room for connection, fulfillment, and joy.
