My Approch
I am a dedicated advocate for mental health, committed to eliminating the stigma associated with it.
I believe that therapy is essential during challenging life transitions, such as divorce, family or friendship breakdowns, the loss of a loved one, relocating to a new country or state, or significant changes in job or lifestyle. Therapy plays a crucial role in processing trauma and identifying a healthy path to achieving personal goals. My practice incorporates Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness. I adopt a client-centered approach, working collaboratively with clients to develop personalized treatment plans tailored to their unique needs and objectives.
The relationship between therapist and client is fundamental to the success of treatment. A strong and trusting bond allows the client to feel comfortable and secure in sharing their deepest thoughts and feelings. In turn, the therapist can provide emotional support and effective guidance to help the client achieve their therapeutic goals. The therapeutic relationship is a key component in the process of healing and personal growth.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for Online Counseling in Florida
Welcome to MENTAL CALM THERAPY! We're here to make accessing mental health support convenient and effective. Below are some common questions about our online counseling services in Florida.
Q: What is online counseling (telehealth)?
A: Online counseling, also known as teletherapy or telehealth, is the provision of mental health services remotely using secure video conferencing technology. It allows you to connect with a licensed therapist from the comfort and privacy of your own home or other suitable location within Florida.
Q: Is online counseling as effective as in-person therapy?
A: Research consistently shows that online counseling can be just as effective as in-person therapy for many individuals and conditions. The key is the therapeutic relationship and your engagement in the process, which can be fostered effectively through virtual sessions.
Q: Who can benefit from online counseling?
A: Online counseling can be beneficial for a wide range of individuals seeking support for various concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship issues, life transitions, grief, trauma, and more. It offers flexibility for those with busy schedules, limited mobility, or living in remote areas.

Q: Can I receive online counseling if I am located outside of Florida?
A: Unfortunately, no. Due to licensing regulations, our therapist can only provide online counseling services to clients who are physically located within the State of Florida at the time of the session. If you plan to travel, please inform your therapist so we can discuss options or potential interruptions to your care.
Q: Is my information confidential?
A: Absolutely. We are committed to protecting your privacy and adhere strictly to all HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) regulations, as well as Florida state laws regarding client confidentiality. Your sessions and personal health information (PHI) are kept secure and confidential.
We use HIPAA-compliant video conferencing platforms that employ encryption and other security measures. We also advise clients to attend sessions from a private, quiet space where they will not be overheard or interrupted.
Q: What about informed consent?
A; Before starting therapy, you will be provided with a comprehensive informed consent document that outlines the nature of online counseling, its benefits, risks, limitations, emergency protocols, confidentiality policies, and fees. We will review this with you and answer any questions you may have. Your consent is required before we begin.
Q: Do you accept insurance?
A: At this time we are working with some insurances. Please refer to the list of accepted insurances.
Q: How do I pay for sessions?
