Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Gainesville, FL

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, or struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, substance use concerns, or difficult life transitions. If you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to begin, you're not alone.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide a compassionate, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. Clients often describe me as genuine, easy to talk to, and deeply supportive. Together, we'll identify your strengths, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change that aligns with your values and goals.

Hi, I am Kamilla, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over six years of experience working with adolescents and adults in a variety of settings, including community mental health, forensic services, behavioral health, and developmental disability programs. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling and have extensive experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation difficulties, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions.

If you're an adolescent or adult carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, or the kind of exhaustion that comes from navigating life on your own for too long, therapy with me is meant to feel calm, unhurried, and genuinely supportive. I work with teens and adults facing relationship struggles, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, emotional dysregulation, and stress that's hard to shake. I also support parents of children and young adults with ADHD or autism-related needs, and I have experience working with individuals and families facing complex mental health and substance use challenges. My background spans community mental health, crisis stabilization, outpatient care, and hospital settings, so I've sat with a wide range of what people go through.

I know life can be really challenging at times. It’s not always easy. As one journeys through life, there comes a time when we all need the love and support of someone who cares. For this reason, it has always been my passion to help those who are in need of that love and support. With a non-judgmental attitude and a heart of compassion I aim to meet you where you are. My hope is to walk alongside you in an effort to help you achieve your therapeutic goals

I have a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Jacksonville University. I’ve been at Wekiva Springs Center since 2022, and have experience with patients all over the spectrum from mood disorders, to substance abuse disorders, anxiety, PTSD, and psychotic disorders.

I believe therapy should be a safe space where you feel truly seen and supported. Using a developmental framework, I help you explore your personal growth within your unique cultural background. Together, we will connect clinical research with your story, helping you navigate life's challenges and move forward with confidence.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, anxious, discouraged, or unsure of how to move forward? Life can feel heavy when you are trying to manage responsibilities, relationships, stress, and your emotional well-being all at the same time. You do not have to carry it alone.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, I provide compassionate, comprehensive mental health care for adolescents and adults through telehealth appointments. I support individuals facing anxiety, depression, mood changes, stress, relationship concerns, family challenges, life transitions, and a wide range of mental health struggles that can affect daily life and overall wellness.

I am a dual board-certified nurse practitioner with advanced training in psychiatric mental health care. My additional clinical background supports a whole-person view of wellness, allowing care to consider the connection between emotional health, physical well-being, lifestyle, relationships, and personal goals. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered as we work together toward clarity, balance, and optimal wellness.

Life can feel heavy sometimes. Maybe you’ve been carrying stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, or emotional exhaustion for longer than anyone realizes. You might feel overwhelmed trying to keep up with everything while quietly wishing you had a space where you could finally exhale and just be yourself. Therapy is a place where you don’t have to have it all figured out. I work with adults, teens, and children who are navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and everyday challenges while learning healthier ways to cope, heal, and reconnect with themselves.
