Getting to know Tesia Jean
Hello, my name is Tesia, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with over 10 years of professional experience. I specialize in working with adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, post-traumatic stress, and experiences of abuse. I also have extensive experience supporting individuals and families with communication and relational dynamics.
I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, supported, and free from judgment. Many people spend their lives caring for others without having a place of their own to process what they carry. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions while developing the tools needed to heal and grow.
I am deeply committed to making therapy accessible and affordable. I understand that reaching out for help is not easy, and for many, it can feel like one of the hardest steps to take. Choosing to begin therapy is a powerful first step toward becoming the best version of yourself, and I am here to support you every step of the way.
What should a new client know about working with you?
After the first session (intake) like any other relationship, we will first get to know each other. My approach is that you first must build a therapeutic relationship. During this stage, we will explore effective coping skills that will help decrease symptoms as well as understand pattern behaviors that have influenced much of what you are going through. This is the time we understand why it is that you do the things that you do.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
