About Connie

Connie Hobbs is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 12 years of experience. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, parenting challenges, depression, and related concerns. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.

Connie combines practical conversation with goal-focused techniques. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to help people identify patterns, set small goals, and change unhelpful reactions. In session she talks through what is happening now and what the person wants to do differently.

Her approach is interactive and direct. She listens for where anger or frustration shows up - at work, with family, or in personal habits - and helps people build clearer steps for responding. She also supports people dealing with adoption or foster care issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, and drug or alcohol addiction as part of broader treatment goals.

Connie draws on two masters degrees in counselor education and mental health to shape practical plans. She aims to avoid stigmatizing labels and focuses on what works for each person. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time; costs vary by location.

How Connie uses CBT and motivational approaches online

Connie commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her work. CBT looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches simple, repeatable skills for changing unhelpful thinking and reactions. It is often used for anxiety, anger, and depression. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own goals and ambivalence; it helps people clarify reasons for change and build commitment in a gentle, conversational way.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Connie will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That decision happens together through early sessions and can change as progress is made.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy weeks, do shorter check-ins during a break, or avoid travel time. It can also allow focused skills practice between meetings. Licensed professionals use these formats to keep therapy practical and usable for everyday life.
