Gilstrap & Associates

I was referred to this office by my PCP for an ADHD evaluation with Sarah as a 26 year old male. I was skeptical at first because I had heard so many stories of adults being misdiagnosed both typical and atypical for ADD/ADHD. Upon my arrival, I was a little thrown off as the office looks like a house and there was a dog inside. I thought I had entered into someone's home. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that the office has a "support dog" that runs around on special days. I felt this was a nice touch for those who needed some love. The staff was extra attentive and friendly to me as soon as I walked in, making sure I was okay with the dog. Having previously participated in mental health counseling I wasn't expecting anything special, however Sarah blew me away. It was the first time I felt that I was seen, heard, and respected in a mental health visit. She took care to thoroughly go through all my symptoms, both validating how I felt and providing me with a lens to look through for my different symptoms. While I cannot afford (low income college student) to continue with therapy after my evaluation, I would HIGHLY recommend Sarah to anyone in need of assistance. She was willing to work with both my financial and time needs and found a fair compromise in both. Thank you so much for helping me feel "normal". You guys are the best :)

Jessica Gilstrap is a top notch mental health professional. She is highly skilled in complex trauma surrounding divorce and understands the importance of a whole family solution for a whole family problem. When working with a family system, Jessica is highly skilled in working with each family member, teaching skills so that children of divorce benefit from a healthy relationship with both parents. I highly recommend Jessica and her team if you are going through a high conflict divorce and need a compassionate and competent mental health professional. She is our go to person for families we serve in the Central Florida area.

I'm so glad I found Jessica with Gilstrap & Associates. You couldn't fins a friendlier or more compassionate person to talk to. I'd been struggling with some things for a while and was not able to progress. Meeting with Jessica helped me to clarify some things and put action plans into place that have been working for me. I am in a much better place now then I was when I first started going. I can't recommend her enough!

I have 50/50 custody of my daughter. The counselors at this business (including the owner) made a recommendation that puts my ex husband in violation of a court order / parenting plan and custody agreement by suggesting that I only have contact with our daughter through letters sent to the counselor and read by the counselor to my daughter. ( who my ex has kept me from for 8 months) I would never opt to a letter verses seeing, speaking with or hugging my daughter. However it was presented to me as it was a letter or nothing. I feel this “family counseling” business is severely bias. I do not have any judgements, courts orders or issues with DCF preventing me from being in my daughters life. My ex is more financially well off than I am. This is how I feel they are picking sides. I do not recommend.

I scheduled a new patient appointment for my wife and I, showed up ahead of time only to be told they no longer accept my insurance (Cigna) as of two days ago, however, they did not feel the need to call and inform any of their clients. Instead, they were “willing to let me talk to the the therapist for a few minutes about payment options or referrals”. *1 star because we can’t leave 0*
