About Myra

Myra Brown is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people navigate times of change and stress. She welcomes clients who feel stuck after life transitions like new jobs, graduation, or relationship shifts. Her approach is steady and respectful, aimed at helping people take practical steps forward.

Myra draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to build plans that fit each person. She starts by listening closely to understand goals, barriers, and what matters most. From there she works with clients to set clear objectives and manageable steps toward those goals.

She has ten years of experience and has worked with people dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, PTSD and trauma, ADHD symptoms, mood disorders, grief, and relationship or parenting concerns. Myra emphasizes respect, compassion, and sensitivity while she helps clients identify patterns and try new strategies.

Sessions focus on practical changes, skills to manage strong emotions, and ways to handle everyday problems like work stress, financial worries, or feeling isolated. She encourages clients to move at their own pace while holding them accountable for progress. The aim is to make change feel doable instead of overwhelming.

Myra practices in Florida and offers services in English. She supports people through major life shifts and smaller, day-to-day struggles by creating personalized plans and working collaboratively toward clear, realistic goals.

How these approaches guide online work

Myra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to structure sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce anxiety or depression. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their reasons for change and build the commitment to take the next steps.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and prioritize small, achievable changes. That approach is useful for coping with life transitions, career moves, or specific problems where clients want quick, practical progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made or new issues come up.

If you plan to do sessions online, confirm the available session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use a lunch break or evening hour for therapy. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and Motivational Interviewing to an online setting to help with anxiety, stress, trauma recovery, and life changes.
