About Ossnat
Ossnat (Ossie) Tovia is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 29 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, anger, and related life changes. Sessions are available in English and Hebrew.
Ossie helps people who struggle with focus, concentration, and memory issues often labeled ADHD. She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, trauma and abuse, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder. She lists additional focuses including attachment and abandonment issues, impulsivity, forgiveness, social anxiety, and young adult challenges.
Her work draws on a mix of approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and build practical skills. Mindfulness Therapy helps with noticing reactions and reducing reactivity. Psychodynamic ideas are used at times to look at patterns that repeat across relationships. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to find small, usable changes that make daily life easier.
Ossie prefers a direct, respectful style in sessions. She talks through what is happening now and what to try next. She adapts conversations and plans to the individual's concerns and circumstances rather than using a fixed program.
People who choose her often want clear steps to manage anger, impulsivity, or persistent worry. To begin, clients follow the site's matching process and schedule an initial session to set goals and decide next steps.
How Ossie uses online sessions and therapeutic approaches
Ossie commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and practicing different responses to reduce anger and anxiety. Mindfulness Therapy teaches noticing reactions in the moment and using breathing and attention skills to lower escalation.She treats the choice of approach as collaborative. In early meetings she will ask about goals, what has helped before, and which methods feel acceptable. Together the client and therapist settle on practical steps and adjust them over time based on what actually works.
The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day and reducing travel time so it is easier to keep regular appointments. When session formats are not explicitly listed, confirm the current options before booking so you know what to expect. The focus is on making sessions workable around work, family, and daily routines rather than on a single method.
