Jamie is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Registered Yoga Teacher, and a State of Florida Qualified Supervisor. She is the founder and owner of Be Your Best Self + Thrive. She is passionate about mind-body-spirit living and mental wellness and specializes in Yoga Psychology. She provides individual and couples counseling and conducts trainings both locally and nationally on mental health, wellness and early intervention.
At Be Your Best Self + Thrive, we believe in a mind-body-spirit approach to therapy. We see people from the perspective of an integrated whole. We also call this holistic therapy. This is in contrast to traditional psychotherapy, which focuses mostly on life history and views mind, body and spirit as separate and compartmentalized entities.
We accept cash, all major credit cards, Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) cards. We value you and your time so your appointments are reserved for you and you only. We totally understand that things happen and sometimes you may need to reschedule your appointment.

The only thing we ask is that you let us know at least 24 hours prior to your appointment so that we can ensure that time can be offered to other clients that need to be seen that week.To keep it super simple and easy, we will send you an email reminder 48 hours prior to your appointment.

I have known Jamie professionally for a few years and I’ve been consistently impressed by her passion for the work she does, her strong ethics, and her innovation. She has built a practice very much in alignment with her core beliefs and has brought in staff that further enhances the practice mission and vision. I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone seeking services in Florida.
