Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
As a licensed therapist in Florida, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. I specialize in addressing issues like social anxiety, communication barriers, self-esteem, and young adult life cycles. I enjoy meeting clients where they are and work to build a rapport.
My approach is deeply compassionate and culturally responsive, recognizing the unique experiences of each individual. I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their emotions, develop meaningful insights, and cultivate self-love. Whether you're struggling with workplace stress, relationship conflicts, or seeking greater life purpose, I'm dedicated to walking alongside you in your healing journey.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I help clients develop practical strategies for managing stress, improving relationships, and building resilience. My goal is to empower you to overcome challenges, embrace your strengths, and create positive, sustainable change in your life.

03 · What happens next
Mencia 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 Mencia's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
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 Mencia at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Mencia 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 Mencia.
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.
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.
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.

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