About Ana
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida with approximately 15 years of experience working with adults. I am also a Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor in Florida, where I provide supervision and support to counselors entering the profession and developing their clinical skills.I specialize in helping clients navigate OCD, trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions, stress, academic and work-related concerns, anger management, self-esteem, parenting, grief, and bereavement.
My therapeutic approach is client-centered, strengths-based, and tailored to each individual’s goals, needs, strengths, and challenges. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CPT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and other evidence-based approaches to help clients develop practical strategies and create meaningful and sustainable change.
I believe therapy is most effective when clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their treatment. I strive to create a supportive, collaborative, and engaging environment where clients can explore challenges openly while developing the confidence and skills needed to move forward.

"As a person who loves helping people, I will be there for you every step of the way. "
