Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Lakeland, FL

Hey all! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a passion for helping my clients gain a deeper love and understanding of self at a foundational level. I enjoy assisting my clients in cultivating a better awareness of triggers that often appear in their lives, as well as in prompting client exploration regarding narratives that have been carried for too long. My main goal is to facilitate overall client healing and empowerment!

With more than 30 years of experience as a clinical psychologist, I am passionate about helping adults and older adults navigate life’s emotional, psychological, and cognitive challenges. I provide psychotherapy, cognitive rehabilitation, and neuropsychological evaluations, with particular experience supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, memory concerns, adjustment issues, and the impact of aging or medical conditions. My approach is compassionate, respectful, and individualized, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to improve your quality of life.

Hi there, I'm Dr. Nadeem, a Board Certified Psychiatrist. I was trained at Ivy League and prestigious institutions, completing my residency at Cornell University and my fellowship at Brown University. Over the years, I've cared for patients across a wide range of settings including inpatient, outpatient, consultation-liaison psychiatry, and more recently as a tele-health Psychiatrist. I've also had the privilege of teaching medical students along the way, which deepened my belief that truly good psychiatric care starts with truly listening.

I am licensed as a mental health counselor, and for the past 11 years I have specialized in therapy with children, adolescents, families, and couples, in addition to providing qualified supervision of registered mental health counseling interns. More recently, I served as the clinical director of an infant mental health program in Sarasota, Florida. I received my Master's of Arts in Clinical Counseling from Columbia International University, and have provided therapy for families and couples in their homes, outpatient office settings, and in my private practice.

My approach to therapy for children and parents, and couples is attachment focused. My practice is based on the belief that we all need healthy attachments to significant people in our lives, and when we are hurting, it is then that we need others most. This is why I have found this therapeutic approach to be so effective. Relationships are at the core of our humanity.

I’m Brittany, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing thoughtful, individualized care for both adults and children—because mental health support should meet you where you are, at every stage of life.

I believe psychiatric care should never feel rushed, dismissive, or one-size-fits-all. My approach centers on listening first, understanding the whole person, and creating a plan that actually works for you.

Through secure telehealth, I support individuals and families navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, emotional regulation challenges, and major life transitions.

This space is for real conversations, clarity, and care without judgment.

✨ Mental health care — done differently.

✨ Support that adapts to you, not the other way around.

✨ You don’t have to do this alone.
