Flora Pazos, LMHC, LPC

Flora Pazos is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience practicing in Florida. She works with adults on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, relationship problems, family-of-origin concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. She is fluent in English and Spanish and accepts international clients.

Flora favors a practical, goal-oriented style. Sessions focus on clear steps and strategies rather than long lectures. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are often used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

She also uses mindfulness practices to help people notice how they react in the moment. Solution-focused methods are introduced when a client wants brief, action-based work toward specific changes. Existential ideas can come up when clients want to talk about meaning, values, and life choices.

In early meetings Flora helps people set priorities and short-term goals. She teaches techniques people can practice between sessions to manage anxiety, anger, or low mood. Work on intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, and codependency often centers on improving communication and boundaries.

Flora describes her role as guiding clients to build coping skills and clearer decision strategies. Her approach is direct and practical, aimed at producing usable tools for day-to-day life. People who want focused, skills-based work on family patterns and their effects often find this approach fits their needs.
