Hello! My name is Acanthus and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Since 2013, I've worked with emerging adults, adults, and older adults through a trauma-informed lens to heal wounds, jump over roadblocks, and foster resilience. I use a collaborative approach, pulling from psychodynamic theories, CBT, and relational therapy to help meld the bridge between where you are and where you want to be. If you are ready to start your journey, take a look through my website to see all that I offer and connect with me!

People think you have it all together, but they have no idea how much you struggle. Feeling exhausted and ashamed, your self-esteem sinks lower by the day. You feel like an imposter. Your success feels fragile and being overwhelmed plagues you. You feel disconnected and isolated from family and friends but have no clue how to repair those relationships. I help clients learn techniques to lessen suffering and explore what a meaningful life means to them. Together, we will unravel your story. And in that safe connection, I will help you confront the shame and fear that come from believing you’re not good enough or don’t matter. I will help develop a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Hi! My name is Jennifer and I am passionate about providing compassionate and effective mental health care. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I'm dedicated to helping clients through difficult times and guiding them toward better well-being. I enjoy helping individuals with a variety of mental health concerns, including treatment resistant mental health disorders and treatment during pregnancy and the postpartum period. If you feel that you've tried everything, come see me and we can discuss this further! I've worked in the healthcare field since 2006, starting as a Certified Medical Assistant before becoming a nurse about 10 years later. I've worked in a variety of settings and with a variety of client populations. My experience in corrections/forensics has allowed me to increase my communication and crisis intervention skills. I am a proud member of both the International Association of Forensic Nurses and the American Psychiatric Nurses Association, ensuring that my practice is always informed by the latest in mental health care. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring the outdoors, and staying active in the community. My goal is to establish an honest and trusting relationship with my clients while working together toward their goals. Thank you for considering me as your healthcare provider.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and work with couples and individuals on improving their relationships and quality of life, and therapists on managing a number of experiences that come up through their work. I offer free, 15 minute phone consultations. Starting September 1, 2023 I will be accepting insurance. Currently I accept out-of-network insurance benefits that will support the cost of services. We can verify these benefits prior to the start of services, as many clients have out-of-network benefits and are not aware of it. Thrizer is my payment platform that verifies your insurance benefits and automatically processes claims for you so you can get the most of the session cost reimbursed quickly and for free.

I am a NYS Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My main focus is helping couples who have become stuck. Watching them connect again reminds me why I chose this field.

I have been working with people for five years and I enjoy what I do. I have met so many kind people who allowed me into their world. I also happen to be a kindergarten teacher during the day. Reach out, let’s get this started!

I’ve been in private practice for nearly 20 years….but there is more than an education or experience.  My work has been filled with the lives of people I have been able to witness heal traumas, or find a new journey, or come to themselves more fully.  Counseling may bring relief, recovery, tools to use or release from pain. Healing is a pathway and I get to walk beside you. I will hold the hope until you can hold it, and I will be honored to go on your journey with you.
