Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Winter Haven, FL

Because trauma and pain often originate in relationships, they can be effectively healed and overcome in relationships. I want to help you to process and resolve the issues that are preventing you from feeling better, accomplishing your goals, and becoming the best version on yourself.

I believe that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore life's challenges, gain insight, and develop practical tools to move toward lasting emotional wellness.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with experience providing psychotherapy to adults across a variety of settings, including outpatient private practice and senior living communities. I work with individuals (adolescents to seniors) experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, chronic pain, relationship concerns, life transitions, and stress-related challenges.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. My dual certification allows me to approach care holistically — understanding both the psychiatric and medical factors that impact overall wellness.

I have experience working with individuals experiencing mood disorders, anxiety, trauma-related conditions, behavioral concerns, and severe mental illness. I believe mental health care should be collaborative, respectful, and individualized. Every client’s story is unique, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. My goal is not only symptom relief but helping you build stability, insight, and long-term wellness.

I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and DBT Prolonged Exposure (DBT-PE), and I tailor these evidence-based approaches to meet your unique needs and goals. Whether you're navigating everyday challenges or working through more complex experiences, my focus is on helping you build meaningful, lasting change.

I'm Raven Jackson, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Jacksonville, FL. I earned my Master's of Education from Old Dominion University in Virginia, and my professional experience spans outpatient and private practice settings. Many of my clients come to me carrying something heavy they've been pushing down for too long, anything from the daily strain of adjusting to a hard life change to the deeper imprint of post-traumatic stress. I specialize in helping clients understand the mind-body connection and how it can become a real source of healing.

My approach to mental health care is collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based. I believe in treating the whole person — not just symptoms. Every patient receives individualized care tailored to their personal goals, medical history, and life circumstances.

You don't have to keep holding everything together.

You're the one everyone depends on. You show up for your family, your relationship, your work, and everyone around you—but somewhere along the way, you may have lost touch with yourself.

If you're exhausted from overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, anxiety, or constantly putting yourself last, therapy can be a place where you finally get to slow down, breathe, and focus on you.

I'm Lourdes Conde, LMHC, LPC, a licensed therapist in Florida and Oregon with 10 years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, perfectionism, people-pleasing, burnout, grief, and major life transitions.

Nicolas received his B.A. in psychology from James Madison University in Virginia and his M.S. in Counselor Education-Clinical Mental Health Counseling Track, from Florida International University. He spent over 15 years working with youth and families in the Juvenile Justice Systems in Virginia and Florida before entering into private practice. During that time, he occupied positions in both residential and outpatient settings including serving as a clinical supervisor to multiple teams of therapists operating in Miami-Dade and Broward county.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Houston. I specialize in helping adults and older adults navigate workplace stress, family challenges, and emotional wellbeing. My areas of focus include career burnout, work-life balance, anxiety, depression, intimate partner violence, divorce, caregiving stress, and cross-cultural adjustment.

I believe every person carries an inner strength that can be uncovered and nurtured. In therapy, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can share your story, build resilience, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
