Living with the stress of day-to-day life, and dealing with difficult transitions, many of us can use the support of therapy at one point or another. When it comes to finding a therapist, Miramar FL, with its convenient location in the greater Miami metropolitan area may be a better place to look than most. But even in a highly populated city, finding the right therapist for you may not be so easy. 

When it comes to psychotherapy, there are a number of evidence-based therapeutic approaches available, and they don’t all work the same way. If you’re feeling anxious due to unprocessed trauma, but the nearby group practice specializes in family counseling, it’s not going to necessarily be the best match. What you need may not be available close by. Not to mention that it may be difficult to find a licensed psychotherapist in your area that’s taking new patients. 

That’s where online therapy through a platform like BetterHelp can be of service. BetterHelp offers access to over 30,000 mental health professionals such as psychologists, social workers, and licensed mental health counselor (LMHC). These providers specialize in a variety of different areas, and have experience working with diverse populations. By filling out an online questionnaire, BetterHelp will connect you with a therapist who meets your individual needs. And because therapeutic alliance can be so essential to the success of the therapeutic process, if you need to change therapists you can do so at no additional cost. 

Online therapy with a licensed professional counselor from BetterHelp can be a convenient option, as well. Many busy professionals, students, and parents find that online sessions can fit into any schedule, and with video chat, phone, and text messaging options, you can talk to your therapist from the comfort of your own home or office. 

If you live in Miramar, in the surrounding Fort Lauderdale or Pembroke Pines area and have been thinking about therapy for any reason, there’s no better time to get started. Whether you’re dealing with a difficult life transition, want to learn stress management skills, or are interested in seeking personal growth, contact BetterHelp to get started on your wellness journey.

Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I have been working in the field of mental health and addictions for over 10 years, and I love what I do for a living. When working with client’s my goal is to help address the core issues that are driving the behaviors that are causing problems in a person’s life and my goal is to take the journey with you to solve it using the client’s strengths. I deliver counseling using various techniques depending on the client’s needs. My favorite approach and one I find most effective for many of the problems client’s come to see me about is Cognitive Behavioral therapy. My goal within sessions is to challenge thinking that is causing a person to feel bad or engage in behaviors that is not conducive to life. I am a motivator at heart and know that one day I will be doing motivational speaking on a bigger stage but for right now you have me one on one coaching and motivating you to understand that you have the skills to overcome whatever problem you may be facing. I don’t have a magic wand but I do have skills to help you start to work in the direction you want to go in and the empathy and care to see you through. Please let me know if my services can be of support to you. As I stated earlier, my style really varies based on what your needs are, and I will do the best I can to make sure you are aware of your personal strengths that can assist you with making positive changes in your life. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor

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))
