I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to providing compassionate, culturally responsive, and evidence-based counseling to individuals and families from diverse cultural, ethnic, creed, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and other emotional and behavioral concerns. My approach is grounded in collaboration, empathy, and respect. I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely heard, understood, and empowered.

If you are looking for a therapist who can sit with the full picture- the child whose ADHD is shaping the whole household, the teen working through an eating disorder, the parent navigating divorce or the adult who's been carrying it for years- that's the work I've spent the last 23 years doing.

I'm an LMHC licensed in Florida, and I've worked with children, adolescents, families, and (over the past three years) adults across homes, schools, outpatient settings, and social service agencies. I have particular experience with military connected families, blended families, and clients navigating ADHD, eating disorders, anxiety, mood and bipolar disorders, grief, and the kinds of life transitions that shake your sense of self.

I believe everyone deserves a safe place to feel heard, supported, and understood. I earned my Master's degree in Counseling from Webster University and tailor therapy to each person's unique needs and goals. My hope is that you'll feel comfortable, encouraged, and empowered as we work together toward healing and lasting change.

No single approach fits all clients; I tailor my approach to each client, making it relevant to the specific problem they are facing. The best way to understand your current issues is to examine how your past influences who you are today. I also emphasize understanding your emotions and past patterns to ensure a better understanding of yourself. I strive to provide a gentle and warm experience, ensuring you are comfortable within the therapy setting and process these hard feelings through a genuine relationship. I also ensure that you understand the process of our work together so you can feel informed and empowered.

My work in mental health is shaped by both professional training and a life lived across cultures. I am an internationally graduated Medical Doctor (IG-MD), born in Venezuela with strong Greek roots, and I have lived in the United States for over 30 years. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for diverse perspectives and help me connect meaningfully with people from all walks of life.

I currently practice as a Family Nurse Practitioner with a focus in psychiatry. In addition to my psychiatric training, my background in hospital medicine has strengthened my ability to understand individuals as a whole—recognizing how mental health, physical health, and daily life continuously influence one another. This allows me to provide care that is thoughtful, balanced, and highly individualized.

Much of my clinical work has been in telehealth, where I offer accessible and attentive care to patients across the lifespan, including children and adolescents (ages 6–18) as well as older adults. I commonly work with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, and ADHD, and I incorporate holistic strategies to support long-term mental wellness.

Beverly Soutas works with individuals (8yo and up)and couples, using a client-centered, solution-focused framework. She is experienced in supporting clients in the areas of anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship issues, trauma, adoption-related issues, faith transitions, and CNM as well as those simply seeking personal growth.

Life can change in an instant. Whether you’re navigating grief, anxiety, caregiver stress, burnout, a medical diagnosis, or a major life transition, you don’t have to face it alone. With experience in pediatric hospital social work, clinical leadership, and many other areas, I’ve supported individuals and families through some of life’s most difficult moments. I’m passionate about helping people move from simply surviving to truly living again.

If you’re looking for someone who will simply nod along, I may not be the right fit, and that’s okay. I believe growth comes from feeling both supported and challenged. I’ll listen with compassion, celebrate your strengths, and gently encourage you to face the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling heard, empowered, and one step closer to the life you want.

I believe that true healing begins when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. As a dual-board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 25 years of healthcare experience, my passion is delivering compassionate, individualized care that treats you as a whole person—not just a list of symptoms.

Mental health challenges like ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and OCD can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate them alone. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in deep empathy. Together, we will combine evidence-based treatments with a personalized plan tailored specifically to your unique life, goals, and well-being. My focus is to help you build resilience, gain clarity, and walk away with practical tools for lasting, meaningful progress. Let’s work together to empower your total well-being.

I provide virtual therapy for clients in Connecticut and Florida. My primary specialty is anxiety and related disorders. I teach my clients applicable coping skills to help manage emotions better. I also help my clients to improve self-esteem, learn to set boundaries, and reach their goals in life. You don’t have to have the perfect words, the perfect mood, or the perfect version of yourself when you show up. Simply come as you are.
