About Jerrilynn
Jerrilynn Pratt-Mullen is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with ten years of experience helping people find clearer, calmer ways to live. She focuses on practical change and guides clients to listen to their own inner sense of what feels right. Her work aims to ease overwhelming feelings and replace self-blame with self-understanding.
She helps people who are coping with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and stress.
Background and approach
She also supports those facing parenting strain, career transitions, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Jerrilynn pays attention to both emotional patterns and how the body holds stress, bringing a somatic perspective when useful. Her style is direct and compassionate.
Sessions often combine talking with exercises that build new habits and awareness. She encourages people to notice physical sensations, change unhelpful self-talk, and practice simple skills between sessions. Jerrilynn draws on several approaches, including acceptance and commitment work, attachment-focused methods, client-centered listening, and cognitive strategies.
She uses tools aimed at shifting beliefs and improving day-to-day coping rather than focusing only on symptoms. In sessions she helps clients set realistic goals and build more dependable routines. The focus is on clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and practical steps people can use at home.
Her practice is based in Florida and she offers services in English.
Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small, values-based steps even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people build safer, more supported ways of relating. This approach often addresses relationship, intimacy, and trust issues. Somatic therapy brings attention to bodily sensations and how the body holds stress; it supports work with trauma, anxiety, and chronic stress by teaching awareness and gentle regulation techniques.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to each person's needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can shift over time as priorities change, and choices are made together to help people make steady progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to practice new skills between meetings. Remote work supports continuity of care for people in different parts of Florida and offers flexibility for scheduling and follow-up.
