About Nakhary

Nakhary Esparragoza Bruce is a Florida Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, trauma and abuse, and concerns like self-esteem, addictions, relationship and family issues. She offers services in English and Spanish and supports people navigating parenting, career transitions, grief, and ADHD-related challenges.

Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on clear skills and small steps that make daily life easier. She uses methods that help people notice what matters and change patterns that get in the way of their goals.

In the room she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients name values and take action, and she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and communication problems. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone needs help finding reasons to change, for example with addictions or control issues.

Nakhary often helps people break down overwhelming problems into manageable tasks. She works with issues like guilt, shame, isolation, forgiveness, and building self-love through practical exercises and reflective conversation. Sessions aim to leave people with one or two things to try between meetings.

Her approach suits people who want direct guidance and tools they can use right away. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how the work might fit their daily life.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, meaningful steps toward those values. It can be useful for anger that comes from feeling stuck or from life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with concrete behavior changes, which can reduce reactive responses and improve problem-solving.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made over time based on what helps you make steady progress.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific options are set by the therapist. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets sessions happen from wherever you are, which can help maintain momentum between appointments.
