About Roberto

Roberto Diaz is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Florida with 27 years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

He works with people facing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting and family challenges, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, ADHD, and career or life transition difficulties.

He also offers support for more specific topics such as body image, attachment challenges, blended family dynamics, chronic illness and disability, and alternative sexual cultures including BDSM and kink. His manner is warm, respectful, and interactive, and he blends approaches to fit each person's needs rather than relying on a single method.

Roberto draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered and emotionally focused techniques, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to create practical strategies and homework when helpful. He frequently recommends books, workbooks, and therapeutic exercises to complement sessions.

Roberto provides services in English and Spanish and offers appointments via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. He holds Florida LMHC MH6578 and New Jersey LPC 37PC00765800 credentials and guides clients through a collaborative process that aims to build skills, insight, and sustainable coping.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Roberto commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy in his online work. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and building specific skills and behavioral strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathic relationship that helps people explore their experience and find their own solutions, which can be especially useful for concerns like self-esteem, identity, and relationship patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Roberto works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit best. He tailors techniques and homework to the client’s goals and preferences, blending methods when that better serves progress and comfort levels.

Online appointments are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility in scheduling and format. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care during busy weeks or life transitions and allow for practical exchanges like sharing readings, exercises, and brief check-ins between sessions.
