Assistant Clinical Director, Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern, JD, MEd
Jussara Silva is a Florida-Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern and also serves as the Assistant Clinical Director of the Center for Psychological & Behavioral Science in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

Sara specializes in working with adolescents and adults who are dealing with anxiety disorders, OCD, and depression. Her approach is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), but she also integrates person-centered and interpersonal process therapy to ensure that each session is tailored to meet each clients’ individual needs. She believes in taking a holistic view of her clients’ experiences, focusing on building a safe and collaborative environment where each person feels comfortable exploring their challenges. Together, Sara can help you work on practical strategies that empower you to manage your symptoms and achieve lasting positive change.

Additionally, Sara is trained in SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) treatment. This evidence-based approach helps parents of children with anxiety and OCD by teaching them how to reduce accommodations that may reinforce their child’s anxious behaviors. If you’re a parent seeking guidance, Sara can help you foster positive changes at home.

Finally, Sara’s background as a lawyer gives her a unique understanding of the stress and emotional rigors of demanding careers. This fuels her passion for helping other professionals navigate the mental health challenges that come with high-stakes environments. Whether you’re experiencing burnout or feeling overwhelmed, Sara can help help you regain balance and control.
