More about Mirta
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Florida, I bring over two decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, trauma recovery, and self-esteem development.
I specialize in creating transformative therapeutic experiences that empower individuals to cultivate deeper self-understanding and meaningful personal growth. My approach focuses on addressing communication barriers, exploring life purpose, healing attachment wounds, and supporting clients in releasing patterns of guilt and shame.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I am committed to providing a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their inner world, develop resilience, and reconnect with their inherent strengths. My goal is to walk alongside you as you rediscover self-love, build healthier relationships, and create more fulfilling life experiences.

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.
