Mallory Fuller – Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Jacksonville, FL
Hi, my name is Mallory Fuller! Although I was born in Jacksonville, my childhood was spent moving up and down the East Coast due to my father’s service in the Navy. I have had the wonderful experience of living in the beautiful states of Maine, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Virginia. After my parents’ divorce during my adolescence, my mother, siblings and I returned home to sunny Jacksonville, Florida. I have stayed here since and am very excited to be a part of the Family Therapy Associates team!
Throughout my upbringing, I gravitated toward helping others. I always looked forward to and enjoyed volunteering with my church at local food pantries, homeless shelters, and organizations such as Habitat for Humanity. Aside from volunteer opportunities, I offered my support and listening ear to numerous individuals in my life. My desire to become a therapist bloomed from a specific incident where I aided a close friend throughout a difficult time in their life. Later on, they expressed the positive impact my help had on them. It’s been my dream has been to pursue a path in helping others ever since that moment. Our journey through life is ever-changing with many trials and tribulations. I aim to help you through these challenges to experience the healthiest and most fulfilling life possible.
