Welcome
Hello! I am so glad you are here. My name is Dr. Caroline Perjessy and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida with almost 20 years of clinical experience. I specialize in women's issues, adolescents, and come from a trauma-informed perspective which informs my understanding that we all have been through our share of battles in this thing called life. I am also a working mom who wants to support and encourage other parents in their desire to be present and emotionally healthy for their kids. We all could use a little support in navigating life's challenges and no one should have to do it alone.

What To Expect At Your Visit
Learn About My Methods
I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among clients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.
Our initial visits will be focused on us getting to know each other and me making sure I understand and support you with whatever led you to therapy. I am humanistic and help my clients see their full potential.
I am a Qualified Supervisor in the state of Florida and offer in person and virtual supervision for LMHC interns.
I am also trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and conduct DBT groups for adolescents and adults. I have presented and published on DBT, as well.
