Addiction Therapists in Florida

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.

Hey there! My name is Paige Avellar and I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I started my mental/behavioral health career in California as a Youth Care Professional working with at risk teens in the group home system. I was also volunteering as a Trauma Response Advocate for victims of sexual assault and domestic violence at the time. When I moved to San Diego, CA, I began working with children on the spectrum as a Registered Behavior Technician. During my time in Florida, I have worked with private practices that help clients manage anxiety, depression, and other common mental health symptoms. I have also worked with clients who struggle with substance abuse and co-occurring mental health problems. Just call me a jack of all trades! I’ll take a quick moment to be vulnerable and let you know that I am also a human that has a history of complex trauma! I’ve been through the healing process and I know how HARD it is to unlearn all of the intrusive thoughts and unhelpful behaviors that you’ve learned as a result of your trauma. I also know that the therapeutic process is not linear, so don’t worry; we’ll take our time and figure it out together. I practice from a Cognitive Behavioral perspective, which basically means I help you identify your problematic thoughts and how they affect your emotions and behaviors. Then we figure out how to challenge your problematic thoughts and replace them with healthier thoughts that lead to healthier feelings and behaviors! I totally understand that counseling can be intimidating; please know that my ultimate goal as a counselor is to encourage the people that I work with to wake up and choose to be their best and brightest selves every day! If you are interested in taking back your power over your mental health struggles and choosing joy every day, I would love to be the one to help you! Please feel free to contact me by phone at 904-372-3637 or by email at [email protected]. **Please note that I am only meeting with clients via phone or Zoom at this time.
