Flora Pazos, LMHC, LPC

Flora Pazos is a licensed mental health counselor and licensed professional counselor with 25 years of experience. She works in Florida and communicates in both English and Spanish. Flora aims to meet people where they are and help them move toward clearer goals and better day-to-day coping. Her approach is practical and goal-oriented. Sessions focus on learning strategies that strengthen what already works and add new skills for stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and relationship strain. She encourages people to take small steps that lead to meaningful change. Flora adapts her work to each person’s situation. She listens with respect and helps clients set realistic objectives. Over time she guides people to notice progress and make choices that reflect their values. She draws on a mix of client-centered, cognitive behavioral, existential, mindfulness, and solution-focused ideas. That means talks about thoughts and behavior, noticing what matters most, and building simple practices to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. People who reach out can expect a steady, practical style that emphasizes skills, clarity, and personal agency. Flora aims to help with both immediate problems and longer-term questions about purpose and direction.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Client-centered work focuses on listening and supporting each person’s own goals. The therapist follows the client’s concerns, reflects what matters, and helps build on existing strengths to make practical changes.

Cognitive behavioral work looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. Sessions often include simple exercises and homework to try different ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and what feels most comfortable. That plan can change as goals shift or new issues come up.

If you are thinking about online therapy, check which session formats are offered before booking. Confirm whether sessions are scheduled by video, phone, or other supported options. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people connect from different locations, including international clients when supported by licensing and scheduling.
