About Jean Kilsheimer Caserta
Jean Kilsheimer Caserta brings a lifetime of experience working with children, adults, and families to her role as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Florida. She began her professional path in education, earning a Bachelor of Arts in Education and French and teaching students from diverse backgrounds. That early teaching work led her to specialize as a behavioral specialist, where she observed how family and environmental systems shape a person’s behavior and well-being. Those observations inspired further training in family systems and a master’s degree in family therapy, equipping her to blend educational insight with clinical approaches.
Jean’s clinical style is grounded in client-centered values and a practical toolkit that includes cognitive behavioral techniques, narrative and solution-focused methods, and motivational interviewing when appropriate. She adapts her approach to each client’s needs, drawing on experience with children, teens, adults, and multigenerational families. Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, grief, parenting and family relationships, depression, addictions, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes, along with additional work in adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and other complex situations.
Personal experience has also shaped Jean’s empathy and drive to help others. Raised in a large Irish-German Catholic family and shaped by caregiving roles in her youth, she developed a deep appreciation for resilience and compassion. Early exposure to French through family and study abroad programs led to advanced language training and a continued ability to counsel in both English and French. She is also a mother, grandmother, and long-term partner, perspectives that inform her understanding of family life across the lifespan.
Over the years Jean has worked in school systems, church programs, and private practice settings, always emphasizing respect, nonjudgmental listening, and practical problem solving. As a licensed therapist in Florida, she blends educational background, clinical training, and lived experience to support clients navigating everyday challenges and significant life transitions.
