Jami Walker

Hello! My name is Jami.

I am a current registered mental health counseling intern and previously served as a high school counselor in the public school sector for seven years. I provide individual counseling and family counseling to support clients through both short-term and long-term mental health trials.

Choosing to go to counseling can be a vulnerable decision…

and yet one that is highly empowering and can create impactful change within your family. Each client possesses unique strengths that contribute to the problem solving nature of counseling. My belief is no one understands nuances of your life better than you; therefore, your strengths will be very crucial in the counseling process.

As a previous school counselor, I specialized in working with anxious teens helping them focus on problems such as focusing, planning, organization, and executive function tasks. When working with teens diagnosed with ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, anxiety, and depression, I aim to help clients with building coping skills, and self-esteem.

Knowing the intricacies of the public school system gives me a unique perspective of helping teens navigate their surrounding social spaces while working collaboratively with parents/guardians and understanding what resources are available.

My education and experience at the University of Florida has prepared me to not only help teens, but also young adults, college students, and families in counseling. During my education years, I certainly learned important theories and strategies for helping clients, but more than that, I learned about myself & overcame personal struggles. I learned the importance of living in a balanced mindset & balanced lifestyle. Through mentors, personal counseling, and the convincing work of the Holy Spirit, I am learning to lean into my walk with Jesus & rest my soul in Him. Join me in learning what it looks like to find rest in a busy world around us.

I look forward to assisting you through life’s sometimes tough transitions and supporting your family’s needs. You can schedule an appointment with me by calling: (407) 285-6284.
