More about Brenda
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
As a licensed therapist in Florida, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on empowering clients through compassionate, culturally responsive care, with a deep understanding of challenges related to depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions.
Drawing from extensive experience working with diverse communities, I focus on helping young adults and women develop stronger self-understanding, communication skills, and resilience. My bilingual practice allows me to connect authentically with clients in both English and Spanish, creating inclusive therapeutic spaces that honor individual experiences and cultural backgrounds.
I'm committed to helping clients explore themes of self-love, social connections, and personal growth. Together, we'll work to address challenges like social anxiety, body image concerns, and emotional healing, always moving at a pace that feels comfortable and meaningful to you.

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.
