Hi, I’m Jasmine. My professional background is rooted in treating abuse related trauma. My work focuses on helping people make sense of distress, whether it stems from clear past events or simply from patterns that no longer fit their lives. I am trained in EMDR and approach therapy as a collaborative process rooted in trust, attunement, and respect for each client’s pace. I value honesty, clarity, and a grounded sense of humor in the therapy room, including an appreciation for incongruence and the occasional ridiculousness of being human, and I believe meaningful change unfolds within a genuine, steady therapeutic relationship.

I help clients navigate trauma, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and patterns that interfere with meaningful change. I offer in person therapy in Venice, FL through Landry Therapy & Wellness and telehealth throughout FL through Headway. Together, let's create a personalized path towards sustainable growth through healthier patterns.

If' you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just ready for a change, reaching out for support is a meaningful first step. You don't have to minimize what you've been through, and you don't have to have all the answers before getting started. Together we will explore what's impacting your life and build tools needed for healing and growth

Alessandra Alvarez

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Florida


I’m a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who brings both learned and lived experience into the room. I’ve spent years in healthcare, particularly oncology, sitting with people through some of the hardest, messiest, most uncertain seasons of their lives. I also know that understanding mental health from a textbook and actually living through hard things are two very different kinds of education. I bring both. I’m what I like to call a two in one provider. I combine medication management and therapy because I don’t believe mental health care should stop at a prescription. Medication can absolutely be part of the answer, but so can your sleep, relationships, stress, trauma, physical health, environment, habits, and the life you’re actually living. I want the whole picture. And I keep it real. I’m warm, direct, honest, and yes, there will probably be humor. You don’t need the perfect words or a polished version of yourself with me. We figure out what’s actually going on, what isn’t working, and what makes sense for you. Because the goal isn’t just to feel “less bad.” It’s to help you feel more like yourself again.

Life can feel overwhelming when you're carrying anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship stress, or the emotional weight of a chronic health condition. You may be tired of overthinking, feeling stuck, or pretending you're okay when you're not. I enjoy workin with teens, adults, and couples who are ready for honest conversations, practical solutions, and real progress. You'll get compassion, straightforward feedback, and even a little humor along the way because healing doesn't have to feel heavy all the time.

Robert Bailey

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


I help ambitious adults who feel plateaued or stuck in their work, relationships, healing or personal growth. On the surface life may look solid, yet anxiety lingers, relationships feel strained, or old patterns keep showing up when they try to move forward in their work, relationships, or personal growth. You understand yourself intellectually, but the deeper patterns still feel outside your control. Often the coping strategies that once propelled you forward are now the very things holding you back. You may even know exactly what needs to change, yet still find yourself repeating the same reactions when pressure rises.
