I am Odalys De Armas, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida. I have experience in helping clients with stress, depression, anxiety, parenting issues, life transitions, challenges, etc. I believe you are the expert of your own story ad that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming challenges. I am here to guide and support you.
My approach
My approach to providing therapy is eclectic. I meet you where you are at and take an individual approach and tap into different theoretical approaches e.g. cognitive behavioral, person-centered, solution-focused, family systems, etc.
My focus
I typically work with clients facing stress, depression, anxiety, life transitions, family/relational issues, parenting issues, etc.
My communication style
I conduct my sessions in a very laid-back manner, "I will not push to go to a place you are not ready to go to", I respect the process to go at a comfortable place for each individual. I will challenge and guide gauging readiness to further explore yet will challenge and guide accordingly. It is important for you to feel comfortable with your process and to trust that process and journey.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have been attracted to the field of psychology since I took my first course in high school
My goals for you
Setting attainable goals is very important because it provides direction, focus, and ways of measuring progress. We will work together in exploring and formulating those goals.
My first session with you
The first session includes getting some "housekeeping stuff" out of the way, gathering some information, getting to know each other, gathering some history so as to determine how I may be able to better assist, guide and support during your counseling journey.
