About Jerrilynn
Jerrilynn Pratt-Mullen is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people notice their inner guidance and change the stories they tell about painful events. Her work focuses on moving past patterns of shame, self-blame, and repeated behaviors that keep people stuck.
She encourages clients to look for the root of their suffering rather than only managing symptoms. In sessions she talks through how stress responses, childhood messages, and trauma shape current feelings and choices. The goal is clearer self-understanding, greater self-compassion, and practical steps toward healthier daily habits.
Her practice includes support for addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, and many other life challenges. She also addresses more specific themes like abandonment, attachment issues, body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and codependency.
Jerrilynn uses approaches that center the client’s experience, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based work, client-centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She focuses on helping people identify unhelpful thought patterns, set boundaries, and build coping skills that fit their daily life.
People who choose her often want a direct, compassionate collaborator who values growth and accountability. She invites those ready to examine the past, embrace the present, and create a different future to begin the work together.

How her methods translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. This can be useful for managing anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people practice new ways of relating; it can help with intimacy, abandonment issues, and trust concerns.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, struggles, and preferences and will adjust methods as they go. Clients can expect to set concrete goals and try simple exercises between sessions to test what helps in real life.
Confirm the available session options before booking so you know how sessions are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings around work, caregiving, or health needs and can reduce travel time. It also allows shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and offers flexibility for people who prefer not to be on camera for the whole session. Ask about practical details when you schedule so sessions match your daily routine.
