Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Bradenton, FL

I have 29 years of experience providing mental health services to individuals, couples, groups with diverse populations including community mental health, the school system, and military families. I graduated with a BA in Psychology from University of Southern Mississippi. I then obtained the Master of Science degree in Counseling from Troy State University.

I specialize in the areas of depression, anxiety, and stress as well as personal growth goals.

I am dedicated to creating a compassionate and client-centered approach utilizing solution-focused and strength- based treatment. I also utilize cognitive behavioral therapy to help understand our thoughts and behaviors.

Hello! I'm Kaitlin, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals feel heard, supported, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges. I have worked with clients on a therapeutic level and in case management settings. I am looking forward to meeting you and supporting where you're at while also challenging you to move forward towards your goals.

Great to meet you! I am an independently licensed therapist in both Ohio and Florida with over 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and rediscover their sense of purpose, strength, and well-being.

Throughout my career as a director, clinical supervisor, and counselor, I have had the privilege of working with clients from all walks of life who are seeking balance, clarity, and growth. I specialize in supporting first responders and military veterans, as well as adults dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem concerns, career challenges, grief, addiction, substance abuse, and other mental health difficulties.

My therapeutic style is open, genuine, accepting, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I believe in meeting you where you are—with compassion, respect, and authenticity. Clients often describe me as straightforward yet warm, offering both empathy and honest feedback to help foster meaningful progress.

Welcome to the first step to your healing journey!

Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about coming home to yourself. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, more seen, and more aligned with who you really are, I’d be honored to walk that path with you.

I am passionate about helping people find clarity, healing, and a deeper connection to themselves. I work with adults and older adults navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, identity exploration, and life transitions—and I offer a space where you don’t have to hold it all alone. I was drawn to this work because of my own journey. Growing up, I often found myself holding space for others—listening deeply, asking questions, and offering comfort. Over time, I realized that being present with people in their pain, and witnessing their growth, was not just something I cared about—it was something I was meant to do. That sense of purpose continues to guide me today.
