Florencia, LMHC

Life rarely unfolds exactly as we expect. Relationships change, roles shift, and new stages of life can leave us questioning who we are, what we want, or how to move forward. Therapy can offer a place to make sense of those changes, reconnect with yourself, and begin making choices that feel healthier and more aligned with the life you want to create.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I particularly enjoy working with women through the different stages of adulthood, including changes in relationships, separation or divorce, and the emotional challenges that can accompany menopause. Helping clients strengthen their relationships, improve communication, rebuild confidence, and recognize their own strengths is some of the most meaningful work I do.

My style in the therapy room is warm, conversational, and collaborative, but I am also practical when you need me to be. I believe therapy should give you room to talk and feel understood while also helping you begin working on the concerns that brought you in. I offer practical feedback and, when it may help you grow, I will gently challenge you to consider a situation from a different perspective. Meaningful change takes time, but I want you to feel that you are beginning to move forward from the start.

I take a holistic and integrative approach to therapy, recognizing that emotional well-being is shaped by our thoughts, emotions, relationships, behaviors, life experiences, and circumstances. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, solution-focused strategies, and psychodynamic concepts to help us address what is happening in your life today while also exploring deeper patterns that may be influencing how you feel and respond.

I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and tailor our work to your individual needs, pace, and goals. Whether you are struggling in a relationship, adjusting to an unexpected change, trying to rebuild your confidence, or simply realizing that something in your life needs to be different, my goal is to create a space where you can be yourself, gain greater clarity, and feel supported as you decide what comes next.

I know firsthand that life does not always follow the plan we imagined. I originally came to the United States thinking I would stay for only two years. Twenty-five years later, I am still here! Life clearly had other ideas, and perhaps that is one reason I appreciate how unexpected transitions can lead us in directions we never anticipated.

Wherever you are in your own journey, you do not have to figure everything out alone. Together, we can work toward stronger relationships, greater confidence, and choices that feel more connected to who you are and where you want to go.
