Eljess Clervil
Appointments are available during evenings and weekends to accommodate your busy schedule. My name is Eljess Clervil, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Nova Southeastern University and am currently pursuing a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree at Florida State University. In addition to my work through Grow Therapy, I am the founder of Gladiolus Serenity Mental Health, a telehealth-based psychiatric practice dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care. I believe that effective mental health treatment goes beyond prescribing medication; it begins with listening, understanding each person's unique story, and building a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, respect, and collaboration. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, and other mental health concerns. My approach is patient-centered and tailored to each individual's needs, strengths, and goals. I strive to create a supportive, judgment-free environment where patients feel comfortable discussing their experiences and actively participating in their treatment. Whether you are seeking answers for long-standing symptoms, navigating a difficult life transition, or working toward greater emotional well-being, my goal is to help you gain clarity, develop effective coping strategies, and move forward with confidence and hope.
First session
During your first appointment, we will take time to discuss your concerns, symptoms, personal history, and treatment goals in a comfortable and supportive environment. This comprehensive evaluation helps me gain a clear understanding of your mental health needs and the factors that may be affecting your well-being. We will review your medical and psychiatric history, current symptoms, previous treatments, medications, and any questions or concerns you may have. Together, we will explore potential diagnoses and discuss treatment options, which may include medication management, lifestyle recommendations, therapy referrals when appropriate, and other evidence-based interventions. My goal is for you to leave the first session feeling heard, understood, and informed, with a clear plan tailored to your individual needs and goals. I encourage open communication and collaboration throughout the process so that we can work together toward meaningful and lasting improvement in your mental health.
Strengths
One of my greatest strengths is my ability to combine clinical expertise with a genuine, patient-centered approach. I believe that effective psychiatric care starts with listening. I take the time to understand each person's unique experiences, challenges, and goals rather than focusing solely on symptoms or diagnoses. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and tailored to the individual. I work closely with patients to ensure they understand their diagnosis, treatment options, and the reasoning behind clinical recommendations, empowering them to take an active role in their care. I am committed to providing thoughtful medication management while considering the whole person, their lifestyle, relationships, stressors, strengths, and personal values. Patients often appreciate my approachable and supportive style, as well as my focus on creating a safe, judgment-free environment where they feel comfortable discussing sensitive concerns. My goal is not only to help reduce symptoms but also to support long-term growth, resilience, and overall well-being through a treatment plan that is both effective and sustainable.
Ideal clients
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I am best positioned to serve children, adolescents, and adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, and other mental health challenges. I work well with individuals seeking diagnostic clarification, medication management, symptom improvement, and practical strategies to enhance daily functioning. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and patient-centered, helping clients develop personalized treatment plans that promote long-term emotional wellness and overall quality of life.
Treatment methods
Supportive
I incorporate supportive therapy into my practice to help patients navigate life's challenges while building on their existing strengths and coping abilities. This approach focuses on providing encouragement, emotional support, practical problem-solving, and guidance in a safe, nonjudgmental environment. During sessions, I help patients process stressors, improve self-awareness, strengthen coping skills, and develop healthier ways of managing emotions and daily challenges. Supportive therapy can be particularly helpful for individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, relationship difficulties, work-related stress, or other emotional concerns. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and patient-centered. I strive to create a therapeutic relationship where patients feel heard, understood, and supported while working toward meaningful improvements in their mental health and overall quality of life. Supportive therapy is often integrated with medication management to provide a comprehensive treatment approach that addresses both symptoms and long-term well-being.
