Jean Kilsheimer Caserta , LMFT

Jean Kilsheimer Caserta is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Florida with 25 years of clinical experience. She began her career as a teacher and later trained as a Behavioral Specialist, which shaped her belief that people are influenced by the family and environmental systems around them rather than being defined by labels. Her clinical training includes a Master of Science in Family Therapy from Nova Southeastern University in Davie, Florida, and a Bachelor of Arts in Education and French. She also holds a professional teaching certificate with endorsements for working with ESOL learners, gifted students, specific learning disabilities, and multiple behavioral disorders.

Over the course of her career she has worked in Florida school systems, church programs, and private practice, supporting children, teens, adults, and entire families through life transitions and everyday challenges. Her practice draws on a range of methods to match each person or family - including client-centered, solution-focused, narrative, play, brief strategic, problem-solving, and cognitive behavioral therapies - and she tailors those approaches to issues such as stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, depression, addictions, relationship and family difficulties, anger, self-esteem, career changes, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Fluent in English and French, she brings lived experience and professional training to her work, shaped by a lifelong interest in education, family systems, and compassion developed through personal and family history. Her approach emphasizes respect, flexibility, and a nonjudgmental stance toward individuals and families from diverse backgrounds.
