Supportive Therapy · Serving Progress Village, FL
Talk therapy with a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who can also prescribe, so what you work through in session and any medication you need stay in one plan.
How Sessions Work
Our therapy is supportive and conversational. You bring what is weighing on you, and we work through it together with guidance, reassurance and a fresh perspective.
Because your therapist is also a psychiatric provider, nothing gets lost between offices. If a session suggests a diagnosis worth exploring or a medication worth reviewing, that conversation can start the same day.

Who We Help
You do not need a diagnosis to begin, only a sense that ordinary days take more effort than they should.
Low mood, fatigue or a loss of interest that lingers.
Worry, tension or panic that crowds out daily life.
Memories, alertness or avoidance that keep the past present.
Intrusive thoughts and the rituals used to quiet them.
Focus, follow-through and restlessness that strain work or home.
Shifts in mood and energy that are hard to predict.
Nights that leave you more tired than when you lay down.
An evaluation helps name what is going on and what will help.
What to Expect
Every decision about your care is made with you.
Send a private message through our website. A member of our team gets back to you as soon as possible.
We cover what brought you in, your background and what you hope will change. The approach is trauma-informed, so you decide how much to share.
You leave knowing whether therapy, medication or a mix of both fits your goals, and the reasoning behind it.
Regular check-ins track how you are doing, and the plan shifts when your needs do.
Your Clinician
Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner · Founder
Emma founded AuraSynergy Mental Health and still sees patients herself. She brings kindness, understanding and honesty to each session, and she knows both your story and your medication history.
If therapy alone is not enough, you can stay with her for psychiatric evaluation, medication management, long-acting injectables or SPRAVATO® treatment.
Choosing Your Care
We offer all four. Your evaluation shows which fits you.
| Option | What It Involves | Often a Fit When |
|---|---|---|
| Supportive therapy | Regular conversations that bring guidance, reassurance and a clearer view of what you are facing | Stress, grief, life changes or patterns you want to understand |
| Medication management | A psychiatric evaluation, a medication plan tailored to you and regular check-ins to adjust it | Symptoms of depression, anxiety, ADHD or bipolar disorder affect daily function |
| Therapy with medication | Both, handled by one clinician who sees how each affects the other | Talking helps but symptoms still get in the way, or medication helps but questions remain |
| SPRAVATO® or long-acting injectables | SPRAVATO® is an FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray given under medical supervision. Long-acting injectables are given at intervals rather than taken as daily pills | Depression has not responded to other treatment, or schizophrenia or bipolar disorder calls for steadier medication |
Cost and Urgent Help
What you pay depends on three things:
Mention your plan when you contact us, and we will explain how it applies before care begins.
Therapy is scheduled care. In a crisis, these lines are faster.

Anyone in Florida can dial 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. It is free, confidential and open 24 hours a day for emotional support and crisis counseling. In immediate danger, call 911.
Yes, at our office. Emma Armand is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, so she can offer supportive therapy and manage psychiatric medication. You do not need a separate referral to add medication later.
Decide first whether you want to talk things through, explore medication, or both. Then choose a clinician you can see consistently at an office within reach of your routine. Meeting the same person each visit means your history does not have to be retold.
Depression that has not responded to antidepressant treatment may be treatment-resistant. We offer SPRAVATO®, an FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray for treatment-resistant depression, given under medical supervision. An evaluation shows whether it suits you.
One clinician, one plan, and room to be heard from the first visit.
