Practitioner record · Checked 10 Oct 2026
Mentoria Hutchinson has been in practice 18 years and is licensed in Florida. Mentoria lists stress, Anxiety, addictions and grief among 27 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Mentoria's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Mentoria works with
Mentoria lists 15 specialisms and 12 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Mentoria chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience working as a therapist and in case management. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief, poor impulse control, low self esteem, parenting problems, stress management, anger management, addiction, and those who have experienced physical, emotional, and sexual abuse. Once that foundation is laid, one of several therapeutic modalities can be utilized, depending on the issue at hand. These modalities may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Psychotherapy. An Integrated approach can be utilized as well. I received my Associate of Arts Degree in Psychology from Okaloosa Walton Community College. I then received my Bachelor's Degree in Social Work from Florida A&M University and received my Master's Degree from Florida State University. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked with populations in both inpatient and outpatient settings with various age groups. I have managed a halfway house for women with dual diagnosis, in addition to managing a specialized program for both teenage girls and boys, which included providing individual and group counseling. I have worked in the state hospital in Georgia and worked with community based care. I am known for being a good listener, caring, sensitive, and open minded. My style is warm and interactive. Not only do I have the necessary credentials, experience, and hours to be licensed, but I also have a lifetime of experience and wisdom to draw from, which is invaluable! I believe everyone should be treated with respect and dignity. I will tailor our therapy and treatment plan to meet your needs. I am here to support and empower you!

03 · How Mentoria works
These are the clinical methods Mentoria lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Mentoria's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Mentoria runs a session.
04 · What happens next
Mentoria 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 Mentoria'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 Mentoria at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Mentoria 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 Mentoria.
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.
05 · Before you commit
Built from what Mentoria actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Mentoria's - Mentoria has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“You list both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Which do you lean on with someone like me?”
Those two point in different directions - one structured and led by the therapist, the other led by you. The answer tells you what the sessions will actually feel like.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“With 18 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.

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