Mark Odell, LMHC

About me

I am a current Licensed Mental Health Counselor, located in Pensacola, Florida. I primarily provide individual counseling services to adults. As a 20-year U.S Navy veteran, I am passionate about helping the military, veterans, law enforcement, and other emergency first-responders. Many people are faced with various mental health challenges; wanting solutions for the here-and-now.

Anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, or other spiritual warfare can be the biggest culprits. Many times, those problems stem from incidents from our past. Too often, our feelings confuse us, so we bury them. As a result, we feel isolated and uneasy with other people, especially authority figures. As we try to please others to compensate, we lose our own identities in the process. Afraid of abandonment, we engage in unhealthy relationships. Finally, as we neglect ourselves, our work and family relationships also suffer.

It doesn't have to be this way!
I have a long track record of providing mental health counseling services; helping people to feel better quickly, with life-long results. My passion is to help adults via a wide range of individual therapies; including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT). I also specialize in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). ​

What you can expect in therapy:
​As a seasoned and compassionate licensed mental health counselor, I will never judge you. Together we will identify what the real issue is, and I will help you work toward your mental health goals. It takes courage, but getting help will pay dividends. As you change from within, the benefits will last a lifetime.
