Hello, my name is Jennifer Dorado and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida with over 17 years of experience working with the community as a counselor. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Florida International University and a Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology from Trinity International University. I've worked with clients on issues such as: anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, substance use, self-esteem, co-dependency, interpersonal conflicts and family conflict, among others. My approach to therapy is one in which I come along side a client to support them in achieving their personal goals and to help them work through the difficult times in life. Conflict with others or painful situations can make us feel depressed, anxious, emotionally drained, and confused about how to move forward. The great news is that by taking the courageous action of working on yourself, you can get through the difficult times, experience emotional healing and continue life with more well-being and hope. My therapeutic style is compassionate, client-centered, and solution-focused. I work with clients at their own pace and my therapeutic work focuses on helping a client identify the source of the problem, find their personal strengths, and use the therapeutic tools which will help empower them to attain their goals. I am here to support you and look forward to working with you!

I appreciate Jennifer's professional perspective and in particular her ability to bring me back to what I can do both in the short and long-term durations (in parallel to my personal growth). She also follows-up with a resource post session that accompanies the concepts that she shares. This allows me to reflect effectively before our next session.

I've gone through a couple of different therapists in my life, and Jennifer has dug deeper than any other therapist. It's been a tremendous help in realizing some internal issues and has helped in many different areas of my life. I would recommend her to anyone. She's also really responsive and replies even if you're just submitting a journal entry to let her know what's been on your mind. Really, really helpful in moments of anxiousness and overthinking. She has a way of calming your brain down instantly.

Jennifer is a true professional, and she has genuine care and concern for others. Her insight has helped me to create a plan, which will serve me well as I move forward in my dating life. Before meeting Jennifer, I was a bit nervous about seeing a therapist because I didn’t know what to expect in our first session. But, after my initial meeting with Jennifer, I felt so empowered and reenergized to create a plan to move forward in having a healthy and l relationship with the next guy I date. I have a new sense of clarity and perspective when it comes knowing what I want and also knowing what I don’t want when it comes to dating. I am super happy with the service from Better help; but most importantly, I am highly satisfied with the sessions I’ve had with Jennifer so far. I would highly recommend her to everyone out there looking for a therapist who is knowledgeable, caring, empathetic, loyal, and patient. She is also a world-class communicator. ❤️

There aren’t enough words I can type to explain the difference, in such a short amount of time, that Jennifer has made on my life. She understands me. She guides me.

In only the first session, I had such a great experience with Jennifer! I loved how she brought a faith based approach to the therapy session, and tied a lot of the things we talked about back to faith in God. She held space for me to talk and tell my stories, which often led me to my own realizations or connected dots I wouldn't have realized otherwise. She also gave me lots of positive affirmations when I shared things I am hard on myself about, and listened to my goals and dreams which meant a lot. I felt really safe and trust her a lot with sharing my mind, and am very excited for our future sessions and to overcome my mental blocks!
