About Us

Julie Chen, LMHC, CAP

Licensed Mental Health Counselor/Certified Addiction Professional
Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator

I have been working with children (ages 5-17 years), their parents and families in the areas of grief counseling, separation/divorce, trauma-based issues, mood disorders including depression/anxiety in children, ADHD, anger management and other behavior management issues for the past 19 years. I also work with adults and couples to address issues including divorce/marital issues, grief, communication and intimacy issues. My office hours are geared to the working mom/dad offering evening and weekend appointments. We accept most major insurance plans, Medicaid and some EAP plans. We also offer a sliding scale fee.

I use evidence based interventions based on a behavioral, cognitive-behavioral and solution focused approach to therapy as well as play therapy. I strongly believe in including the family in treatment and family sessions are a significant part of my treatment planning.

I am a Certified Addiction Professional (CAP) and a Qualified Supervisor in the State of Florida for Mental Health Counseling Interns. I am also a trained family mediator helping divorcing parents to agree on issues such as co-parenting and time sharing.

Devina Cruickshank-Brown, LCSW

Family Mediator (Licensed Clinical Social Worker)
Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator

I began working in the area of mental health over 26 years ago, the last 22 years have primarily been as a child and family therapist. I have worked with children in a variety of environments from in the home to schools and foster care. Working with children led me to expand my practice to include working with parents and families. Currently I work with a mix of adults, families and children. In addition to treating a range of challenges from anxiety to trauma, the life issues people face are also a key part of my practice, such as divorce, death of a loved one, a move to a new home or country and bullying.

I will spend the time needed to build a good relationship with you, to ensure an individual approach to the problem. I draw from a variety of therapeutic techniques from EMDR to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My practice includes evidence based treatment and outcome based measures. I have a reputation for being creative, empathetic and person centered.

I am an avid learner and continue to train. Currently I hold additional certifications in treating trauma and ADHD. I am a team player and work with other professionals when needed to meet your goals.
