I have been in the medical profession for over 15 years. I believe psychiatry is the foundation of our overall well- being. It is important to understand that depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder, and much more can affect our daily lives. Therapy with conjunction with medication is proven to be the most effective in helping achieve the best outcomes. "Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways" Sigmund Freud

I thank you for taking the time to read my bio. I have worked in health care since January 2006. I know that the healthcare field is a calling, and one of my life missions is to impact others positively. I went explicitly into psychiatry because, during high school I felt there were only a few subjects I could apply to everyday life. Everything starts with the mind, and as the famous quote states, “I think therefore I am.” First are the thoughts, whether conscious or unconscious, then feelings, i.e., emotions, and then actions. Thoughts, feelings, and actions encompass our daily lives and must be in harmony or as close to balance for everyone in order for us to live up to our full potential. I have worked as a certified nurse assistant and understand the necessity of working hard to provide for myself and my family. In addition, I have worked as a registered nurse in the hospital setting helping to heal those who have suffered from heart attacks, strokes, amputations, blindness, diabetes, sickle cell, cancer, motor vehicle accidents, etc. With this acquired experience, knowledge and understanding I have concluded that life is fragile. Thus, it is important to live each day to the best of our ability. Uniquely, I have been a family nurse practitioner and worked in primary care and urgent care. Thus, I understand and can treat hypertension, diabetes, back pain, hypothyroidism, common skin conditions, acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, and much more. I specialize in psychiatry and see patients 18 years and older. Initial visits are one hour, and follow-up appointments are a half hour. This reduces the need to rush and allows us to be as comprehensive as possible to provide the best mental health care possible. The goal and vision are to work with you and to establish a positive relationship in which I recommend various treatments. Still, it’s done in partnership and collaboration to assist you with becoming the best version of yourself. It would be my privilege and honor to serve as your mental health provider. I have worked in the hospital setting helping to heal those who have suffered from heart attacks, strokes, amputations, diabetes, cancer, motor vehicle accidents, etc. With this acquired experience, knowledge and understanding I have concluded that life is fragile.

"Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over it became a butterfly." -Chuang Tzu Hi! My name is Dr. Jaclyn Bellassai, DNP. I am a nurse practitioner board-certified in psychiatry and in family health. I have a genuine love for people, and I consider myself a sensitive and compassionate person. I find working in my field a privilege, and I am in awe every day of how people choose to confide in me and trust in me to help them. I never take this for granted. I always try to see my patients through their eyes and take their history, culture, and belief systems into consideration when formulating a treatment plan. I get to know and truly understand my patients to ensure they receive patient-centered care. I am a well-rounded clinician. I have cared for acutely ill patients and those with less severe chronic mental illnesses affecting various ages and populations. My experience in the acute setting has prepared me to deal with very sick and complex cases ranging from schizoaffective disorder to significant depression. My experience working in a psychiatric hospital has taught me how to treat a wide range of mental health illnesses; part of my duties included attending and testifying in Baker Act court, working with interdisciplinary teams to formulate treatment, and preparing a discharge plan. I am also working in substance abuse and caring for those who have an addiction. I have experience working in skilled nursing facilities, providing psychiatric care to some of the most vulnerable, specifically the older population. Regarding my education, I have attended recognized state schools, which are rated highly for their nursing curriculum. I attended Florida State University (FSU) for psychiatry and obtained another certification from FSU specializing in Veterans Mental Health. I have achieved a Doctorate in nursing practice and a Master's Degree from the University of South Florida (USF), where I specialized in family health. Being a family health nurse practitioner is essential because I will be more likely to recognize specific diseases and conditions that may present as mental illness but possibly related to another health condition. Last, I am a United States Marine Corps veteran, which gives me an advantage in understanding the veteran population. Being a veteran has also instilled in me integrity and leadership. I hope you choose me to be your provider! You will be ensured compassionate care!
