Therapists in Fort Lauderdale, FL

I’m Carine Robert, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 27 years of experience in medical and psychiatric care. I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health treatment for children, adolescents, and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, stress, mood changes, or other emotional and behavioral concerns. My approach is supportive, culturally responsive, and centered around each person’s unique needs. I believe mental health care should feel safe, respectful, and collaborative. Whether you are seeking therapy, medication management, or a combination of both, my goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout your healing journey. In our first session, we will focus on getting to know you. We’ll discuss your concerns, mental health history, current symptoms, and what you hope to achieve through treatment. You do not need to have everything figured out before reaching out. This is a space where you can speak openly without judgment. Together, we will explore treatment options and begin creating a care plan that feels comfortable, realistic, and right for you.

I help clients feel confident and be able to kickass in all areas of your life. You want to be able to quiet that inner critic, no longer second-guess yourself, and have moments where you feel like you're all that and a bag of chips. If that sounds like you, then I'd encourage you to reach out so we can get you there. Together, we will explore what thoughts, feelings, & behaviors are keeping you feeling unsure and overwhelmed. We will change your relationship with these experiences so you can live a brave life.
