Wini is by far the best therapist I’ve had, and I’ve had my fair share. She is wise, kind, and encouraging.
More about Winifred
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Florida, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. My practice centers on helping clients address stress, anxiety, communication difficulties, and profound life changes with compassion and expertise.
Drawing from a deep understanding of multicultural experiences, I provide culturally responsive care that honors each person's unique journey. My approach is particularly attuned to supporting older adults, veterans, women, and individuals facing chronic health challenges or experiencing isolation.
I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore sensitive topics like life purpose, guilt, shame, forgiveness, and family dynamics. My therapeutic work emphasizes healing from past experiences, building resilience, and developing meaningful coping strategies.
With a trauma-informed and person-centered approach, I strive to empower clients to reconnect with their inner strength, navigate complex emotions, and create positive transformation in their lives.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She is great and understanding with no judgement.
Wini is by far the best therapist I’ve had, and I’ve had my fair share. She is wise, kind, and encouraging.
Winifred is an excellent listener. She is very professional and considerate. She is attentive and leaves me feeling like she is rooting for my success.
When I signed up for Better help, I never went to therapy but my girlfriend suggested it so I went all in. I described the help I needed and was matched up with Winifred Cooke-Freeman. She has been a Godsend, we have navigated and are navigating through the issues I am having and she has given me some new tools that are working. I love the fact that she listens and she keeps it real. I am looking forward to more sessions with her.
