Congrats on choosing psychotherapy! I am an experienced and compassionate psychologist. I treat mood disorders, trauma and grief survivors, anxiety/depression issues, as well as eating disorders. I also enjoy working with couples and families. The work we will do together includes cognitive-behavioral treatment and person centered therapy. I bring empathy, acceptance and compassion. Oh yeah, some humor too. I truly enjoy people and I love helping them navigate their worlds. I welcome teens, adults, seniors, couples and families. Just schedule a session to see if i am the right therapist for you.

I have been a mental health counselor for almost 30 years, in Cuba, my country and in the USA. As a psychiatrist, I specialized in medication management, and individual, group, family and couples counseling. I've published articles and books on family and couples therapy. I have been working in a crisis intervention service for several years. After that, I worked at a community mental health service. My therapeutic style is eclectic. I use various techniques that fit with the case and the current problem. I often practice cognitive behavioral, narrative, conflict resolution and client-center techniques. To treat families and couples I usually proceed with the systemic-constructivist model. For individual cases and couples and families I establish the necessary rapport. In a few sessions, customers often make great progress. Empathy, unconditional acceptance and humor are important issues in my work. Having studied and worked counseling in various cultural environments allows me to better understand the dynamics of customers. After I approved credentials in the USA, I have worked in individual counseling with children and adults for over 12 years. I have been professor of clinical psychology in Cuba and in USA. I currently deliver a behavioral analysis as lead analyst for children and young people with autism and other disabling mental conditions. Welcome to the online counseling room, which will be our private and secure place to communicate. You can enter this room from any Internet-connected device wherever you are. To help us get started, can you please tell me what brought you here? Just write a few short sentences about the challenges you're experiencing or what you would like to talk about and we will go from there. Looking forward to working with you, Francisco Almagro (MD, (Cuba), Psychiatric, Specialist, (Cuba), MHC, (EUA))

’Hi, I'm Shanterica Swan, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with experience providing therapy in outpatient, residential, correctional, and virtual settings. I work with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds who may appear high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained internally. I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, mood concerns, and difficulties with overthinking or emotional regulation. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including CBT, mindfulness, and skills-based interventions, with an emphasis on practical tools for everyday life. I strive to create a supportive, judgment-free space where clients feel heard, empowered, and supported in building emotional balance, clarity, and confidence.

Welcome! I know how hard it can be to reach out for support. If you're here, I want you to know that you're not alone and you don't have to figure everything out by yourself. I'm someone who believes in the power of feeling seen, heard, and understood. I believe that therapy should feel like a real conversation where you can breathe, think, and be real, not a clinical checklist. I believe you deserve a space where you don't have to pretend, perform, or be "put together". Therapy with me is about helping you feel safe enough to be your real, unfiltered self. The parts that feel strong and the parts that feel messy. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida and for over 6 years I've helped adolescents and adults navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. A lot of the people that I work with are tired of wearing masks- the "strong one", the "fun one", the "reliable one". Underneath, they feel overwhelmed, anxious, numb, or disconnected from who they used to be. I help create a space where you can take those masks off without fear. You don't have to know the right words. You don't have to have everything figured out. You just have to show up as you are. Together, we'll work through what you're carrying and build tools that feel realistic and fit your real life. If you're tired of pretending and ready for a space where you can just be real, I'd love to support you.
