About Diandra
Diandra Ortiz is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on anxiety, trauma, addiction, and interpersonal struggles, and lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Diandra uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage worry, panic, mood shifts, and patterns that get in the way of daily life. She works with individuals who want to address relationship problems, codependency, substance or process addictions, and difficulties with self-esteem and identity. The work often includes teaching skills and trying small changes between sessions.
Her approach blends several therapeutic styles, including acceptance and commitment techniques, cognitive behavioral tools, and emotion-focused ideas. She uses these methods to help clients notice unhelpful patterns, experiment with new behaviors, and clarify their personal values. Conversations are direct and focused on what a person wants to change.
Diandra pays attention to cultural background and life transitions. She supports people dealing with immigration stress, grief, career shifts, parenting strain, and challenges common to young adulthood. She also addresses sleep and eating concerns when they relate to mood or stress.
For someone considering therapy, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location. International clients are accepted.
How her approaches fit into online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and decide what matters to them. It uses short exercises to build willingness to act on personal values rather than getting stuck in worry. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments. It is often used for panic, social anxiety, and mood symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in close relationships and how emotions shape interactions and attachment. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. Sessions can mix approaches and change over time as progress and priorities shift. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow someone to work with a licensed professional in Florida while living elsewhere. The therapist will discuss what format works best when you schedule your first session.Areas of expertise
