About Judith

Judith Gordon is a licensed mental health counselor, Florida LMHC, with ten years of experience. She works with people who struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, addictions, relationship problems, and social anxiety and phobia.

She helps people talk through stressful life changes and parenting pressures. She also addresses anger, grief, intimacy concerns, career challenges, and money-related stress. Sessions focus on practical steps people can use day to day.

Judith draws on approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused and useful. She uses Motivational Interviewing when someone is trying to change habits related to substance use or other addictions. Narrative and Solution-Focused ideas help people see different ways to tell their story and set short-term goals.

In sessions she listens for what matters most and then works with clients to try out small changes. That may mean testing new behaviors, shifting unhelpful thoughts, or setting manageable goals. Progress is reviewed in plain terms so people know what to expect next.

Her work includes attention to multicultural concerns and issues that affect women and young adults. Judith also supports people facing panic attacks, Seasonal Affective Disorder, and challenges tied to midlife transitions. She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Judith uses a subscription system for payment that can be canceled at any time, with fees that vary by location.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to identify what matters most, which helps when sorting out anxiety, self-worth, or relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for panic, social anxiety, and mood issues. Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to change behaviors like drug or alcohol use by exploring personal reasons for change and building motivation.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences together and try approaches that fit the client's needs. Sessions can shift as progress is made, and the plan is reviewed collaboratively so the client understands next steps.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or offering ways to meet without being on camera. These practical benefits can help people keep consistent appointments and apply skills between sessions.
