About Flora

Flora Pazos is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience in clinical work in Florida. She works with adults on common life stresses like anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.

Flora draws on client-centered and solution-focused ideas to set clear goals in sessions. She uses practical strategies and tools so people can test changes between meetings. Flora practices cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and to build different behavioral responses.

Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. She helps people learn coping skills for grief, trauma, substance issues, and problems tied to major life transitions. She also addresses concerns such as intimacy issues, self-esteem, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Flora speaks Spanish and English and often helps clients who need bilingual support. Over the years she has worked with a wide range of adult issues, including abandonment, blended family stress, cancer-related concerns, and recovery from domestic violence.

In sessions she focuses on skills practice and clear next steps. Clients are taught techniques to notice patterns, try alternative responses, and measure progress. The aim is steady improvement in day-to-day functioning rather than quick fixes.

How Flora’s approaches translate to online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s concerns and priorities. It means the therapist listens deeply and follows what the client brings up, helping clarify goals and choices. This approach suits people who want a collaborative listener and practical next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Sessions teach specific techniques to test unhelpful beliefs and try different actions. CBT is often used for anxiety, anger, depression, and problems with coping.

Flora treats the choice of approach as a shared decision. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean blending client-centered work with CBT and solution-focused tasks so sessions match what the client wants to accomplish.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoiding the need to be on camera when someone prefers a phone conversation. These practical benefits help people try therapy without major schedule disruptions.
