I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida with 6 years of experience in the field. I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees from Austin Peay State University. I have encountered many people with different challenges, all of which I have dedicated compassion and empathy toward helping. I have experience with helping those in crisis, with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, personality disorders, mood disorders, and more. Do you feel stuck in a cycle of being disconnected or feeling too much? I help people with similar issues to create a balance in their mind, body, and spirit. I would like to applaud you for taking the first step in seeking help, it is not always the easiest thing to do. Rest assured I will try my best to make this process comfortable even if we do come across difficult emotions.

To others it may seem like you've got it all together, but on the inside you're spinning out of control. Panic randomly punches you in the chest, taking your breath away, and you can't focus on anything else other than how to make it stop. You are consumed by trying to keep up with everyone else since they seem to have it all together, but you can barely function through the day. You feel like an awful mom because you are lashing out on your kids and hating the daily monotony instead of "embracing the joy of motherhood." You feel like you are failing your partner because somewhere along this journey you just lost yourself. You want to be a better mom to your kids. And remember why you fell in love with your partner. And stop the tornado of anxiety that knocks you out on the regular. You want to stop living by the expectations of others and rediscover who you truly are. It's time to win back some peace of mind and self-worth and attract the life you want. I have the DBT and mindfulness skills, which uses both mind and body exercises that will help you manage the crippling anxiety, love yourself better, be a more present and joyful mom, improve your relationships, and attract the life you want.

Are you a Christian woman in your 40s-50s experiencing emotional distress after a hard breakup or Narcissistic abuse? Are you looking for support but feeling judged by your faith community? Do you have self-condemning thoughts and doubt your value and worth, but WANT to have positive feelings toward yourself? Do you feel emotionally overconnected to another person and want your sense of independence back? Then YOU are the kind of client I enjoy working with! Together, we can evaluate and dispute negative thoughts and beliefs, resolve spiritual crises, break trauma bonds, and find acceptance for realities unlikely to change. I specialize in treating self-esteem, codependency, and divorce. I love working with clients to heal from trauma, resolve anger, and find acceptance for unrealized expectations.

I use spiritually informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify abuse, set boundaries, heal from trauma, resolve anger, and find acceptance for unrealized expectations. I provide practical, therapeutic, and spiritual interventions. Potential clients should know that I provide a safe, goal-oriented environment to work toward wholeness without judgment or criticism. Together we consider biblical truths and find ways to apply them to mental health. We will identify, evaluate, and dispute thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that conflict with God's grace, truth, and love. of focus include fear, anger, guilt, grief, shame, stress, forgiveness, self-esteem, relationship loss, divorce and hopelessness. I open sessions with prayer. Successful treatment completion looks like you have met your therapy goals and are routinely staying inside your window of tolerance (the optimal level of arousal for emotions, memories, thoughts, experiences, and people) that you can endure without destabilizing.

Hi friends! My name is Sherree Turcott and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). Do you get triggered and feel like you over-react to your children, partners, and family members? Do you feel like it is impossible to start and complete basic daily tasks? Are you tired of feeling like the people in your life take advantage of you? My path to becoming a therapist started in the classroom. After a few years of being an elementary school teacher, I recognized that I focused more on my students’ socioemotional education and their overall well-being than I did on academics. I decided to pursue my instinct to dig deep and inspire others to discover their inner strengths. I love when I can help other people shine. I love the fact that telehealth provides a small glimpse into my clients’ real lives. It allows me to see them in their safe spaces where they can feel most like themselves. It is also great for clients who struggle to find the time for themselves; with telehealth, we do not have to worry about drive time or sitting in traffic. If you are crunched for time or just cannot fit everything into your day, there is no need to cancel your session; you can fold your laundry while we chat. Technology really allows us to become more flexible and is helping therapy become less stigmatized as a stuffy office with a therapist who just nods their head. Telehealth is like you inviting me into your home and I can become a part of your regular comfortable routine. Let's meet virtually over coffee and problem solve together!

HI! I am an LCSW licensed in NY, NV, TX, VA, and NC. Being a therapist is my second career; previously, I was a social worker for the Department of Elder Protective Services and a vocational rehabilitation manager, working with the legally blind population. What drew me to being a therapist was the ability to guide clients through adversity through the lens of a social worker, which means I look at the person through all systems. Rather than focusing solely on the individual level, I also look at social and environmental systems. I have worked in numerous settings, including a residential rehabilitation center for youth, an inpatient psychiatric facility, and private practice. Working in these three different settings has developed my understanding of various demographics, mental health barriers, and mental health diagnoses. It has also shaped me into being able to welcome change without ambivalence.
