What Florenda says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with twenty plus years of providing support to families and individuals. I have worked with children of all ages in the school system for more than thirty years and learned and benefitted from our time together..

My approach to therapy is Solution Focused Brief Therapy, in an effort for the client to think and focus on what is possible. Other therapy approaches may be used of that is a better fit for a client. My steady support and encouragement offerrs each client the opportunity all of the options open to them.

A client can expect me to have an open mind and to offer a warm and accepting environment. Their needs are always my priority as we work together during therapy sessions. I look forward to our paths crossing in the future. Thank you.

03 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Florenda practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Florenda's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Florenda at this point.

2. Naming Florenda specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Florenda is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Florenda.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

04 · Before you commit

2 questions worth asking Florenda

Built from what Florenda actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Florenda's - Florenda has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “With 20 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”

  Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

06 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Florenda's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Florenda. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
