Betsi Cintra, LMHC — Therapist in Florida

Hi there, I'm Betsi!

I create a welcoming, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, and relationship challenges, using a collaborative and compassionate approach tailored to your unique needs.

My focus

I support children, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, and trauma. Whether you're processing difficult experiences, developing coping strategies, or working toward personal goals, I'll collaborate with you to create a growth plan that feels empowering and attainable.

My approach

I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and strengths-based approaches tailored to your individual needs. I specialize in supporting students and families through school transitions, providing trauma-informed guidance that prioritizes safety, empathy, and empowerment.

My communication style

I value clear and open communication and strive to create a space where you feel supported and never judged. I'll listen with care and empathy, and I'll invite you to reflect on your experiences at your own pace. If we're navigating something tough together, you can count on me to stay calm, patient, and right there with you.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into therapy began with a passion for helping others express themselves and build meaningful connections. I believe deeply in each person's capacity for growth, resilience, and change. Whether it's helping you gain confidence, process difficult experiences, or find inner peace, I find this work profoundly rewarding.

My goals for you

We'll explore what you truly want from therapy and collaborate to set goals that feel meaningful, realistic, and personal. We'll break them down into manageable steps and regularly revisit them as your needs evolve. I help you stay motivated by celebrating progress and working through obstacles together.

Our first session

Our first session is a chance to get to know each other and start building trust. We'll talk about your background, what's been on your mind, and what brought you to therapy. We'll explore your goals and what you hope to achieve, and I'll explain how therapy works and what to expect.
