About Claudette
Claudette Gaynor is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 19 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, and life changes. Claudette also supports people dealing with ADHD, caregiver strain, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
She uses a client-centered approach that focuses on self-acceptance and self-compassion. Sessions often involve identifying long-held beliefs that no longer help and practicing new ways of thinking and acting. Claudette integrates mindfulness and meditation practices into day-to-day routines when they fit the person's goals.
Expect active work in sessions and between them. Claudette asks clients to try exercises and brief homework to test new skills in real life. She also shares video tutorials clients can use outside session hours to reinforce what they learn.
Her aim is practical change during transitions and stressful times. Claudette works with people coping with trauma, loss, career shifts, relationship problems, and general stress management. Conversations focus on spotting internal resources and applying them to current problems.
Claudette blends evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered listening and elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. That mix is intended to help people develop coping skills and clearer personal direction. Sessions are delivered from Florida and are conducted in English.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Claudette works from approaches that focus on values, present moment skills, and practical behavior change. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those things while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses straightforward exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will review goals and preferences together and recommend which methods to emphasize. That decision is collaborative and can shift as needs change over time.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and support practicing mindfulness or homework between meetings. Therapists can also adapt exercises used in ACT and CBT to work well in remote sessions, focusing on skills that transfer into everyday life.
