About Steven
Steven Brashear is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and depression. He works in English and practices from Florida.
Steven centers sessions on the client's own story and strengths. He treats people as the expert on their life while offering techniques and feedback. Sessions tend to focus on practical ways to manage strong feelings and interrupt unhelpful patterns.
His approach draws on several evidence-based methods. He uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change thought and behavior patterns. He incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take action in line with those values.
When trauma is a concern he may integrate EMDR elements to address distress tied to past events. Skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy are also used for emotional regulation and coping when emotions feel overwhelming. Client-centered principles guide how he listens and responds in session.
People working with relationship or identity concerns can bring issues like attachment, abandonment, communication, and family stress into sessions. He also supports those coping with life transitions such as separation or immigration-related strain. His work aims to give clear tools and steady feedback while respecting each person's pace.

When trauma is part of the picture, elements of EMDR may be included to reduce distress linked to past events.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Steven will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are expected as the work unfolds.
