Beatrice Lafleur

Beatrice Lafleur is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, relationship struggles, and coping with life changes. She welcomes questions and aims to make starting therapy feel straightforward for someone juggling family and daily demands.

Beatrice earned her master's degree from Barry University and holds LCSW credentials in Florida and other states. She has spent over a decade working in mental health, including time in an inpatient setting at a Florida state hospital and nearly a decade supporting people in community settings.

Her style is practical and goal-oriented. She uses solution-focused techniques to help clients set and reach small, useful goals. She also draws on client-centered methods to keep sessions respectful of each person's pace and perspective.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, appears in her approach when looking at thoughts and behaviors that affect mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, is part of her toolkit for teaching emotion regulation and interpersonal skills when stress or strong emotions get in the way of daily life.

Beatrice aims to respond to messages within 24 business hours. She encourages people to ask questions before starting so they can feel comfortable with the process. Her approach is collaborative: she works with each person to choose the steps that fit their life and goals.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Beatrice uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow a person's lead and create space for them to say what matters most. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and working at the person's pace, which can be useful when adjusting to big life changes or feeling overwhelmed.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test small behavior changes. CBT is practical for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress by building skills that a person can practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Beatrice works together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means starting with what matters now and adjusting methods as progress is made.

Session options are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online formats before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier, help fit sessions into a busy week, or allow for shorter check-ins when time is tight. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they fit daily routines and help move toward practical goals.
