I am a licensed mental health counselor with a combined seven years of experience in the mental health field (including three years of clinical supervisory experience), where I have been providing care to clients in multiple agencies throughout the state of Florida, utilizing clinical models to improve patient care and drive positive clinical outcomes. I have worked with diverse client populations and multiple diagnoses (anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorders, etc.) throughout the years, including serving young children through older adults.
Do you feel abandoned by those you love? Do you feel overwhelmed by feelings of dread due to past trauma? Are you consumed by shame? Is living for you a never ending feeling of worthlessness? How many times have you felt you don't belong, even within your own family or circle of friends? Once is too much and I can help. Divorce, loneliness doesn't have to be your future. Nor do anger issues, anxiety or depression. You deserve to have self-worth and a positive tomorrow. Feel free to reach out to me. You are not alone.
Let us discover, together, new ways to look at change. My focus and passion is to help you reclaim your joy and peace. Marriages can be saved. Nightmares can stop and negative thoughts don't have to win. Our goal will be to find lasting solutions that work for you in your every day life.
Aurelio received his Graduate Degree in Clinical Social Work from the University of Central Florida in Orlando. He is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker as well as a Qualified Supervisor for the State of Florida, and Internationally Certified Interventionist.
“My counseling style has developed over time to become one that does not spend time dredging up the past or spending time talking about the past session after session. This approach focuses on finding solutions for today and the future and keeps you on your new path while discouraging looking back because you are not going that way”.
Reaching out for therapy can be a significant step, and I strive to make the process feel comfortable, supportive, and free from judgment. With over 10 years of experience as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor, I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress.
I believe that every person has strengths that can be built upon, even during difficult times. My role is to provide a safe space where you can explore your experiences, gain insight, and develop practical strategies for lasting change. I tailor treatment to your individual needs and goals, recognizing that no two people have the same story.
I value authenticity, compassion, and collaboration in therapy, and I work to ensure that clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout the counseling process. Whether you're facing a current challenge or seeking personal growth, I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
I’ve spent much of my life on and around the water, which has taught me that both the ocean and life can shift quickly from calm to unpredictable. Those experiences shape my approach to therapy: learning not to fight the current, but to move through it with awareness and resilience. I offer a grounded and compassionate space where you can slow down, reflect, and explore the parts of life that feel heavy or stuck, while feeling both supported and gently challenged. Our work together is collaborative and rooted in curiosity, honesty, and deep respect for your story. Alongside my clinical training and two master’s degrees, my years living and working throughout Southeast Asia have given me experience supporting people from diverse cultural, spiritual, and relational backgrounds.
Born & raised in New York, I take pride in approaching my work with passion & relatability. I graduated from UConn with an Acting degree & graduated with a Master’s degree in Psychology from SNHU.
I bring excitement & positive energy into every situation. I believe I have the heart of a storyteller & the soul of a healer!

I’m Jennifer Haynes, LMHC, Founder and Clinical Director of Fr33 Mind LLC. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care, emotional wellness, and helping clients better understand the patterns that shape how they think, feel, relate, and respond to life.
I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, relationship concerns, emotional dysregulation, life transitions, family dynamics, and periods of feeling disconnected from themselves. My training includes trauma treatment, DBT-informed care, grief counseling, suicide assessment and management, parent training, neuropsychotherapy, mental health and nutrition, and personality disorder treatment. I am also a Florida Qualified Supervisor and am currently completing certification in Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga, anticipated in March 2027.
What I want clients to know most is that therapy with me is collaborative, honest, and individualized. I value warmth and compassion, but I also believe meaningful therapy includes reflection, accountability, skill-building, and learning how to make choices that better align with the life you want.
My work is increasingly focused on the connection between mind and body. Healing is not only about understanding what happened; it can also involve reconnecting with yourself, recognizing how stress shows up in your body, strengthening emotional awareness, and developing a greater sense of safety, agency, and choice.

True healing isn't just about managing symptoms — it's about addressing the whole person.
I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who believes that lasting stability and happiness require working on three levels: your physical experience, your emotional patterns, and your spiritual wellbeing. When all three are addressed together, real change becomes possible.
I work with clients to identify what's getting in the way of the life they want — and build the tools, insight, and coping strategies to actually get there.
