Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in West Palm Beach, FL

Hi, I’m Gisselle. I work with women and adults who are navigating anxiety, trauma, stress, and life transitions — especially during seasons that feel overwhelming or uncertain. Many of my clients are trying to hold everything together on the outside, while internally feeling stuck, exhausted, or unsure how to move forward.

With a background in public service and years of experience supporting people from all walks of life, I bring a deep sense of compassion and understanding to the work we do together. Clients often describe me as warm, supportive, and easy to open up to.

I’m a LCSW with a Master’s degree in Social Work from San Diego State University. I specialize in helping individuals navigate PTSD and trauma-related challenges, and I strive to create a safe, understanding space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to heal and grow. I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of settings, including outpatient mental health and crisis centers. I have experience working with both military and non-military members to address trauma head-on.

My professional experience is with young adults who struggle with life changes/transitions. Also, young adults who struggle with coping and stress. Individuals who are looking for a safe space to be heard and supported without judgement.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 8 years of experience and I also hold a Certified Master's Level Addiction Professional ( MCAP). I have worked in a wide variety of settings with a focus on individual counseling. My specialties include anxiety, depression, substance abuse, trauma, domestic violence, borderline personality disorder, narcissistic abuse, and ADHD.
