Family Therapy in Saint Augustine, FL

Hi there, I'm Hayne. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing both in-person and Telehealth sessions. For 20 years, I've loved working with every angle of the family . If you looked at my schedule on any given day, you'd probably see a few married couples, some exhausted and burnt-out parents, a college student, a 4th-12th grader, someone having an affair, someone who has been crushed by a loss or a person who is wrestling through their attraction to the same gender. I often find that a person's willingness to come in and simply talk about things creates at least 50% of the change they are looking for.

Life can bring uncertain times and circumstances that can lead to anxiety, sadness, feelings of despair and a lack of options. There are so many aspects of our lives ( family , upbringing and traumatic events) that we cannot choose or change. No matter how imperfect you think your life story is in this “now moment,” please know that you deserve to feel love, happiness and peace. We live in a society and culture that emphasizes happiness defined by status, material items and wealth rather than a life filled with peace, balance and contentment within ourselves.

In-office appointments now available. Experiencing a financial hardship? Discounted sessions are available to accommodate people during the COVID-19 crisis. Everyone should be able to get the help they need during these stressful and uncertain times. "If you're searching for that one person that will change your life, take a look in the mirror." You have the strength to diminish the negative and overwhelming feelings that are interrupting your life. Let me help you tap into that strength.

I believe in being all you can be using a holistic approach to have peace and harmony in your life. I specialize in trauma and anxiety, couples and family therapy using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR therapy which has been proven to be the therapy of choice to overcome trauma and anxiety and to achieve letting go of disturbing memories and issues from the past that may have held you back from moving forward in your life. I am also an advanced hypnotherapist and have helped many people achieve success in areas such as stopping smoking, weight loss and phobias.
