Jerrilynn Pratt-Mullen

Jerrilynn Pratt-Mullen is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with ten years of experience helping people navigate major life changes. She focuses on guiding clients through grief, addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and shifts in identity or purpose. Her approach is warm and direct, aimed at helping people notice long-held patterns that keep them stuck and find practical ways to move forward.

She encourages clients to notice the stories they tell themselves and to test whether those stories still fit. Jerrilynn uses talk, reflective listening, and skill practice to shift unhelpful thinking and reduce self-sabotaging behaviors. She emphasizes self-understanding, self-compassion, and building everyday skills that support change.

Her work often addresses trauma, shame, codependency, and caregiver stress, and she helps people who struggle with sleep, eating, or substance use to find steadier routines. She also supports clients dealing with identity, career transitions, and the emotional impact of chronic illness and caregiving.

Jerrilynn draws on several well-known therapy methods to match the approach to the person in front of her. Sessions include practical exercises and real-world homework when helpful, so progress can be noticed between meetings. She aims to help clients replace limiting beliefs with healthier habits and clearer goals.

She practices in Florida as an LMHC and works in English. People interested in starting can use the site's Start Therapy button to complete a short questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

Approaches that guide online work and change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through structured exercises and practice between sessions. It is commonly used for mood, anxiety, and sleep concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people develop healthier ways of relating and feeling safe in close connections.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, daily life, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they will try methods that match the client's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy life, whether for shorter check-ins during a work break, longer weekly conversations, or to avoid travel time. Online meetings can make it simpler to practice new skills between sessions and bring real-life situations into the conversation for immediate reflection.
