Are you looking for professional guidance and support to build knowledge and confidence necessary for facing and conquering a difficult situation?
If so, you’ve come to the right place!
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida with a PhD in Developmental Psychology. I provide science-based individual, family, and couples therapy in both English and Russian languages in my Florida based private practice. I specialize in helping people who are struggling with anxiety, emotional regulation, and social relationship issues. My therapeutic approach is eclectic in that I select several evidence-based techniques from various psychological perspectives – insight-oriented, humanistic-based, solution-focused – and tailor them to specific treatment goals that you, as my client, will set forth, based on your individual needs and current issues.
Once we begin our sessions, we will be working together, as a team, guiding you towards improved emotional and physical health, better performance at school/work, more positive daily life experiences, and increased self-respect and self-trust. With my over 15 years of academic, research, and clinical experience, along with your active engagement in weekly LIVE sessions, I believe I can provide you with valuable tools to cope with your challenging circumstances.
Contact me today and let me help you uncover your true potential and subsequently lead a productive, fulfilling life!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Dr. Fredricks was excellent in the session that I had with her. I needed to talk to someone and she listened and was very understanding. She gave me great advice that I was able to use.
Dr. Fredericks is a godsend. She is always available for every bad day. She is a dear friend and now can’t manage not talking to her for a week. I love her honesty and I am so comfortable with her. She will make you her priority.
Dr. Fredericks has Ben excellent and professional in our first sessions. I will continue to use her services and believe she is genuinely concerned with helping me discover and address all of my problems.
Irina is fantastic! Love our sessions and she’s helped me out so much.
She is great!
Dr Fredericks is patient, kind and pragmatic. Reframing situations but also understanding the initial perspective. She has in depth explanations of how and why we have come to think in certain ways this helps to understand the root cause of situations.
In my first few sessions so far, Dr. Fredericks has been very helpful. We have discussed concerns I have in several different areas of life, and she has given me some great tools for being able to focus and work through the issues as they arise. It has been an excellent experience, and I am glad to have the opportunity to learn from her.
She is wonderful
It took a lot of self motivation to reach out for help. It became so easy to get into a regular routine of being extremely anxious and upset and easily getting angry. When I finally reached out for professional help Dr. Fredricks was key in helping me find a positive balance within myself. She encouraged good habits I had already developed and made suggestions to help me in other areas that I needed to work on. She really is an expert with a wide range of knowledge and reccommondations. She is very good at listening to your personal needs and considering your personality and combining that with scientific backup from the world of psychology. She shared many studies and helpful worksheets and research to reinforce information, which was helpful for me since I am very interested in science and research. The biggest part is your own participation. I tried my hardest to listen to Dr. Fredricks and follow her suggestions to a “T” and it has truly changed my life for the better. I 100% would not find myself in the same positive, motivated and overall happy mindset without Dr. Fredricks. I HIGHLY recommend her expertise! She is very kind and knowledgeable and genuinely wants to help.
Dr. Frederick has been very effective in addressing my concerns. In a short amount of time, we have established a great professional connection and I feel very comfortable talking with her.
Dr. Fredericks is very professional, empathic and intelligent. It is so nice to be able to speak with someone like this from the comfort of my home, it really is a blessing.
I was a pinball with my needs, but she was incredible at helping me figure out my trigger points and gave wonderful techniques to practice for the following week after a session. Once implemented everything was slowly falling back into place. She is an incredible listener, and helps talk through the solution rather than just saying what I should do. I would highly recommend her!
Dr. Fredericks is wonderful. She is confident but nurturing. She offers great advice and understands where I’m coming from. My time with her has been so valuable.
Irina is caring and compassionate and helps me see things from a different perspective. I have enjoyed my conversations with her so far and I look forward to working with her more. I never feel judged by her.
I believe Dr. Fredericks is a great counselor. Her combination of positive psychology and CBT therapy is fantastic. I feel she cares about me and her work, and I genuinely feel better after our sessions. Dr. Fredericks clearly cares, and I'm a better person because of her.
Dr. Fredericks is fantastic. She really listens and takes the time to understand what you are saying.
Dr. Fredericks is the first psychologist that I truly click with, after trying a few. She has helped me so much and within a few months of counseling, my anxiety level has lowered so much and I have much better control over it.
Perfectly suited to what I needed. Great advice. My life improved a lot thanks to her counsel.
Dr. Fredericks is considerate, and consistently insightful. Her ability to empathize combined with her strong knowledge makes for a fantastic experience.
Dr. Fredericks is an amazing counselor that has helped me learn more about myself. He has made every session a learning experience for what I should improve on and who I am as a person overall. She listens to what is going on with you and gives a positive explanation of what needs to be worked on. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better counselor than her. Every session is like having a normal discussion which is comfortable and amazing. Thank you Dr. Fredericks for everything.
She knows and respects the anxiety I have. Always makes me feel like I am making progress and it motivates me. Very kind and takes time to answer questions. Then allows me to voice myself and takes it into account with my treatment.
I've been on the fence about going to therapy for years. I'm the type of person who likes to think things through and figure everything out for myself. It took me a real bad incident to finally accept that I need to get help. I have been very surprised, and quite impressed, by the type of connections Irina has been able to make for me. She has provided nothing but solutions and clarity to everything I've brought to her. I have many more things to work through but I am really happy I've been able to make progress and feel a sense of liberation with this experience.
Polite, professional and really easy to talk to. It was an absolute pleasure having her council me.
She is a wonderful person. She can help you with problems you may be having trouble with. She is a great listener and offers excellent advice and perspectives to problems.
