I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should feel safe, supportive, and human. I offer a warm, straightforward space where you can talk openly and feel understood. I help clients navigate anxiety, trauma, and overwhelming stress using practical tools and a calm, steady approach. My goal is to help you feel more stable, more empowered, and more in control of your life.
You're here because something needs to change, and that takes courage. I'm Jennifer, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 17 years of experience working with individuals, teens, and families across Florida and Indiana. I specialize in maternal mental health, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and substance use. I don't do cookie-cutter therapy — I adapt to you, your pace, and your life.
My name is Doug L. Watson, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, RN, and I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with three years of experience treating clients across the lifespan. While I’m trained to work with individuals of all ages, about 85% of my practice has been focused on pediatrics and adolescents—a population I’m truly passionate about serving. I see children as young as five years old through Telehealth up to ages 75 or higher if needed. I earned both my BSN and MSN from Indiana Wesleyan University, completing my graduate degree in October 2022.
I genuinely love what I do and have always felt called to the field of psychiatry. Becoming a Psych/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner has been one of the most fulfilling decisions of my life. I’m excited to be on my own, building a lasting career. I’m committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care and making a positive difference in the lives of my clients and their families.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with the Diagnostic Privilege and Ph.D. candidate in Mental Health Counseling at Pace University, where I also earned my master’s degree. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and rooted in Person-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Positive Psychology. I believe that healing happens through genuine connection, curiosity, and compassion not judgment.
I have experience working with individuals and couples navigating challenges such as relationship concerns, co-dependence, self-esteem, and substance use, as well as a variety of mental health diagnoses. My research has focused on intergenerational trauma within Latin American communities, and I’m passionate about helping clients explore how culture, identity, and family history influence emotional well-being.
As a bilingual counselor who values authenticity and growth, I strive to create a space where clients feel seen and supported for who they are not just what they’ve been through. My goal is to help you reconnect with your strengths, build self-trust, and create meaningful change in your life.
Hi! I have a LCSW with a MSW. By integrating evidence-based practices such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, CPT, and ACT, I will work alongside you to develop practical strategies for overcoming challenges and achieving your goals.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over twenty years of experience supporting people through some of the hardest parts of life. I believe many barriers to mental and physical well-being are rooted in various forms of trauma, grief, relationship struggles, and life transitions. I have a particular passion for end of life care, loss, women's issues, and trauma, and I strive to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and deeply respected.
I have a holistic, creative approach to counseling, focusing not just on talk-therapy, but mind-body connection and our network of supports and relationships. I have worked in non-profit and community counseling centers and have experience with all ages of clients as well as multiple levels of abilities. My education background is not only in clinical mental health counseling but also peace and justice and art studies.
A few things about me outside of therapy: I have three children, so I understand that life can be beautifully chaotic. I’m a real person, not a therapist robot. I’ll bring authenticity into our work together.
I work with adolescents and adults across a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship and family challenges, grief, and major life transitions. Most importantly, you don’t have to impress me. You don’t have to have the perfect answers or know exactly what you want to say. Therapy can be a place to better understand what you’re experiencing, recognize patterns that may be getting in your way, and develop healthier ways to move forward. Come as you are, and we’ll navigate the hard stuff together.
You may be trying to keep things together while feeling anxious, down, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to get back to feeling like yourself. Maybe past experiences are still affecting you, relationships have become difficult to navigate, or you're struggling to understand why you keep reacting in ways you don't want to. For teens, this can look like withdrawing, feeling misunderstood, struggling at school, or having emotions that feel difficult to manage. For parents, it may mean trying to support your child while also feeling unsure of what to do next. I work with teens, parents, and adults navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges, and I strive to make therapy feel warm, genuine, and easy to talk about.
I am a licensed psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner dedicated to serving my community. I enjoy connecting with my patients and working together to find the best treatment for them!
