About Shimyne

Shimyne Homidas is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) practicing in Florida with seven years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, anger, grief, depression, and life transitions such as divorce or job loss. She also supports people dealing with family problems, codependency, and issues around self-esteem and purpose.

Shimyne focuses on practical steps in sessions. She listens to what is most pressing and helps people set clear, manageable goals. She uses motivational interviewing to clarify values and motivation. She brings in client-centered methods so people lead the pace and topics of work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy strategies are part of her approach when thoughts and behaviors need direct attention. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness tools are used to help with strong emotions and staying grounded. These methods aim to reduce impulsive reactions and build better ways of coping with anger and stress.

She also attends to issues often tied to major changes - grief, separation, family conflict, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Practical problem-solving and solution-focused steps are offered alongside reflection. The goal is to increase day-to-day coping skills and clearer decision making.

Shimyne accepts international clients and provides sessions in English. Her practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform's online options.

How Shimyne uses therapeutic approaches online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and decide goals that make sense for their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and managing anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shimyne will talk with each person about goals, what has helped in the past, and what feels doable. She uses that conversation to shape a plan and adjusts methods as needed so the work fits the person's situation.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Working online also makes it possible to include clients who live outside Florida or in other countries, while still keeping focus on concrete skills for managing anger, stress, and life transitions.
