"Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen." - Brené Brown I appreciate the courage and vulnerability it takes to seek therapy, and I'm glad you're here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has experience working with a wide range of issues. My specialties include helping with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, low motivation, LGBT issues, and addictions. I believe that each person is the expert of their own experiences and has their own unique strengths and abilities. Unfortunately, sadness, shame, fear, or other emotional road blocks often get in the way of healing. My role as a therapist is to create a safe and nonjudgmental space to build upon a client's existing strengths as well as to provide new tools and insight. I use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches to help clients achieve their goals. This means that together we can find new ways to think about your issues, learn to use concrete and evidence-based solutions, and help shift thinking from a place of confusion and conflict to acceptance and understanding. My education includes a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Oglethorpe University and a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Social Work from The University of Chicago. I possess a license to practice psychotherapy independently in the state of Florida. I am comfortable working with clients on long-term issues, such as chronic anxiety and depression, as well as short-term issues, such as processing grief and loss. I have extensive experience working with the LGBT population and use a sex-positive approach when discussing issues of sex and sexuality. I look forward to the privilege of hearing your story and helping you to become the best version of yourself.

Jasmin Mamak
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida . I practice a multifaceted approach of: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Solution Based Theray, and Existentialism. I tailor treatment to the client’s needs allowing for individualized care. My counseling style is open and provides clients an area where they can explore the root of their current distress with no judgement and a sense of ease. My aim as your counselor is to allow you to put down the emotional baggage you have been carrying around and be free of that weight. I will help my clients navigate stressful decisions and/or situations in a safe environment. Together, we will focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome your obstacles. I'm here to help you sort through the things that are difficult right now, and offer you a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment. I encourage mindfulness techniques in my practice (i.e. meditation, deep breathing exercises, yoga, etc.) I am holistic in my approach and tailor therapy to the client’s needs. That said, I also believe in the power of medicine ( psychiatry), and have seen first hand the benefits of medicine, in conjunction with therapy, have for an individual. The ultimate goal of my style of counseling is to leave the client with a sense of security in their abilities to cope with life and to ultimately be happier and their own healer. Counseling can be just as important as physical exercise in terms of a mental workout. If you plan to have an impact in this world or just live your life, then you will most likely experience stress and negative emotions as a part of life. It is not only brave but healthy to seek out help as we all need it and are not immune to the trials that life puts in our way. A lot of life is out of our control but we find ways to react to it that allow us to thrive. I studied at the University of Central Florida earning a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and at Nova Southeastern University where I earned a Master's in Mental Health Counseling. I spent a majority of my undergraduate degree studying and working in the anxiety clinic and the media and migrations lab on campus. There I participated in research designed to help alleviate anxiety symptoms and specific phobias. While earning my Master's degree I worked with at risk youths and young adults who were exposed to high degrees of stress. My post- graduate work was spent working with adults who suffered with addiction and mental health disorders. I worked with ages ranging from 9 to 60+ years of age throughout the past 12 years. A majority of my experience is in: stress management, depression, anxiety, constant worry, guilt, shame, fear, and life changes. Once we decide to work together, I will challenge you to consider the areas in your life that are harmful to your mental health and how to begin to change them in order to live a healthier and happier way. Counseling doesn’t have to have a long time frame, and healing can happen faster once we harness your already built skill set in session. I am looking forward to helping you find the peace and/or path you are looking for to live the life you want. You are taking the first in healing, I know it’s not easy, but I am here to help you . You don’t have to go this alone.

Before seeing your Marineland therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns or feel unsure about what to talk about. Marineland therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.
Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Marineland licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Marineland counselor can be dependent on your process.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice.

Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you.
