Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders can have profound effects on peoples' lives. However, therapy can be a very helpful addition to medication and other treatments. I have experience treating psychotic disorders using Psychodynamically-Oriented Supportive Therapy (POST) and other approaches. I have also published professional works on both hallucinations and delusions. Please note that I only do individual therapy (i.e., not couple's or family therapy).

St. Petersburg has undergone rapid transformation as an arts and culture hub, attracting young creatives, LGBTQ+ residents, and a growing tech community, and therapists here frequently work with identity exploration, life transitions, and the pressures of building an unconventional career in a mid-size city. The city has a well-established LGBTQ+ community centered around the Grand Central District, and affirming therapists are well represented relative to the city's size. St. Anthony's Hospital and Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community. Many St. Pete therapists serve clients across the wider Tampa Bay area, making the region's therapeutic resources interconnected regardless of which side of the bay clients live on.
