As Clinical Director and Qualified Supervisor at Behavioral Turning Point, my professional trajectory demonstrates a steadfast dedication to resolving intricate mental health and co-occurring substance use disorders. With dual licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and certification as a Certified Addiction Professional (CAP), I have cultivated multifaceted expertise in clinical leadership and cross-disciplinary coordination. This foundation enables me to spearhead holistic, evidence-based treatment models that integrate behavioral health interventions with systemic support frameworks.

Additionally, I bring specialized proficiency in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) intervention, having served as Lead Behavioral Analyst guiding therapeutic programs for children. In this capacity, I designed and implemented individualized behavior modification plans rooted in applied behavioral principles, prioritizing measurable outcomes and skill development tailored to each client’s unique needs. My approach consistently aligns clinical rigor with compassionate, person-centered care to optimize long-term recovery and functional progress.

Many people come to therapy not because something is "wrong" with them, but because they're ready for something different. I believe that most people who seek support aren't broken, they're brave. They've decided that something needs to shift, and they're willing to do the work to get there.

Whether you're navigating past trauma, breaking patterns that no longer serve you, or working through negative self-talk, you don't have to figure it out alone.

I'm Joanna Saint Jacques, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working with children and adults across a range of life experiences. My approach is warm, direct, and deeply collaborative. We work together to explore what's holding you back and create space for real, lasting change.

I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist who integrates clinical expertise with Christian values to support emotional healing, resilience, and personal growth. I believe that true healing occurs when mind, body, and spirit are nurtured together. My work focuses on helping clients manage stress, regulate emotions and move forward with hope, faith, and intention while honoring each individual's unique journey.

I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of South Florida and my graduate studies at the University of South Carolina. Throughout my career, I have served diverse populations, including children, adolescents, young adults, adults, and older adults. Services are provided to individuals who are physically in the states of SC, FL, GA, PA and OH.

In my spare time I enjoy traveling and spending quality time with my family and friends.

Hi, I'm Heidi, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) at Life Thrive Solutions dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges with compassion, support, and evidence-based care. I earned my Bachelor of Social Work from Calvin College and my Master of Social Work from Barry University. Over the past 10 years, I've worked in outpatient mental health, residential treatment, and healthcare settings, providing therapy to adolescents, adults, older adults, and families experiencing a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns.

Hello! I work with adult clients, ages 18-64 years old, who have medication management needs for their mental health conditions. Clients should have appropriate acuity in the mild-to-moderate range for telehealth care. Certain conditions or symptom severity levels may need a more intensive care setting than telehealth. Same week appointments available.

My own journey into mental health advocacy began when my oldest son was diagnosed with Bipolar I Disorder. As I learned to navigate his diagnosis, I immersed myself in education, support, and advocacy, eventually becoming certified through the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) to teach all of their signature education programs.

During my seven years with NAMI, I served my community by teaching mental health education classes, leading support groups, collaborating with community organizations, and offering seminars aimed at reducing stigma and increasing understanding.

That work inspired me to return to school and deepen my ability to help others. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Florida State University and began clinical practice in crisis intervention and trauma‐informed care at the Children’s Advocacy Center and Emerald Coast Behavioral Hospital. I now have my own private practice providing personalized therapy as well as psychoeducational and therapeutic groups throughout the year. I also continue to educate local businesses and community members through professional seminars focused on compassion, early intervention, and mental health awareness. In addition, I serve as an adjunct professor at Florida State University Panama City.

Beyond my professional life, I’ve been married to my high‐school sweetheart for 37 years, and we have two adult sons. I find joy in spending time with family, reading, studying human behavior, walking on the beach, watching sunrises and sunsets, exploring Pinterest, playing the piano, and creating a warm, welcoming home.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to walk alongside you as you discover new possibilities, reclaim your sense of self, and create a life worth living.
