With over 11 years of experience in nursing and medical practice, Jason Floyd is a Master's-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner known for delivering precision-driven, root-cause-focused care. As Co-Owner of Evolving Mind and Body and Owner of Evolving Mind Psychiatry, Jason has built a reputation for combining clinical excellence with a refined, patient-centered experience.

Clinical Foundation

Jason began his nursing education at Polk State College, where he studied from 2011 to 2015. Following graduation, he entered acute cardiac care before transitioning into Emergency Medicine in 2016. Over five years in the Emergency Department, he managed high-acuity cases in fast-paced hospital environments, developing advanced clinical judgment, composure under pressure, and a deep understanding of complex medical presentations.

Driven by a desire to address the mental health needs he frequently encountered in emergency settings, Jason pursued advanced graduate training at Frontier Nursing University in Kentucky. From 2017 to 2020, he earned his Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization in psychiatry and became board certified in Psychiatric Mental Health.

Advanced Experience

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Jason traveled to New York to serve in the Emergency Room, providing frontline care during one of modern healthcare's most critical periods. His service further strengthened his leadership, resilience, and clinical expertise.

Upon returning to Florida, he began practicing as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in an inpatient hospital setting before transitioning to a high-volume outpatient psychiatry clinic. During this time, he simultaneously launched his own psychiatry practice, allowing him to implement a more comprehensive and holistic model of care.

Over the past four years, Jason has successfully operated Evolving Mind Psychiatry, focusing on strategic, individualized treatment plans that move beyond symptom management to identify and correct underlying contributors to mental and medical concerns.

Recognizing the undeniable connection between mental and physical health, Jason partnered with Erin Garza, FNP, to establish Evolving Mind and Body - a premier wellness destination designed to integrate psychiatric expertise, medical insight, and holistic optimization under one elevated standard of care.

Philosophy & Approach

Jason's philosophy is centered on precision and partnership. Every patient undergoes a comprehensive evaluation designed to uncover the root cause of medical or mental health concerns. Rather than masking symptoms, his approach focuses on identifying underlying drivers - biological, psychological, environmental, or lifestyle-based.

Treatment plans are collaboratively developed with each client to ensure alignment, confidence, and clarity in their goals. Ongoing support and consistent follow-up reinforce accountability, comfort, and long-term success.

At Evolving Mind and Body, patients are not processed - they are heard. The practice is intentionally designed to provide a higher standard of care where individuals feel valued, understood, and supported rather than treated as a number.
