Arian Englesson

Arian Englesson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She has worked in counseling since 2007 and focuses on supporting people through life transitions and women’s issues. Arian aims to help clients live closer to their potential by offering practical, down-to-earth guidance.

Her approach is warm, direct, and often grounded in a little humor. She uses clear tools people can try right away to ease anxiety, shift mood, or manage stress. She also incorporates expressive methods like art, music, movement, and storytelling when that feels helpful.

Arian has extensive experience with depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, perinatal and postpartum mood concerns, grief and loss, eating and food-related issues, addiction, relationship conflict, and family matters. She also helps people facing fertility challenges, body image concerns, and midlife transitions.

Clinically, she draws from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and solution-focused techniques. These approaches are used flexibly to match each person’s needs and goals.

Outside of counseling she is a Certified Hypnobirthing Instructor, a Registered Yoga Teacher, and a trained labor doula. She enjoys yoga, art, nature, and spiritual connection, and she lives near the beach with her two children.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship and helping people find their own solutions; online sessions using this approach emphasize listening, reflection, and collaborative goal-setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into manageable steps and teaches practical exercises; online CBT often uses worksheets, behavioral experiments, and homework to reinforce skills between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, and it can be delivered in short coaching-style conversations alongside regular sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences and then recommend or blend approaches that seem most useful. This is a collaborative process where methods are adjusted as progress is tracked and needs change.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and less travel time, which can help fit sessions into a busy day. Online work can allow for shorter check-ins when needed and flexible timing around work or family commitments.
