Sylvia is greatly, caring and compassionate

Reviewed April 2023

I've never felt like my feelings matter to anyone until I got to talk to Silvia. I don't think I would be alive today if I never sought therapy or got to speak with Silvia. My greatest fear in seeking therapy was that I would be assigned a therapist that doesn't understand me or my concerns. Silvia reminds me that I matter, and that everything bad that's happened in my life is not always my fault. I always thought that I was a hindrance to everyone in my life until Silvia reminded me that I deserve to be treated like a living person. I finally have the confidence to look in the mirror and see a person on the other side. At the age of 27, this is the first time in my life that I've been reminded that I am important, that I am not just passed on to someone else to deal with, or told things will change soon once I get over my scruples and just put myself out there. I cannot thank Silvia enough for everything she's done for me.

More about Silvia

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with experience assisting clients navigate life stressors such as relationship issues, friendship skills, workplace concerns, college, and balancing competing obligations. These stressors may overwhelm our ability to cope and to get through these and other difficult situations the need for emotional support may arise.

I believe that most people can benefit from a therapist who can provide an objective, non-judgmental perspective, in an environment of collaboration, and confidentiality.

My counseling style is empathetic and welcoming. The type of psychotherapy approach I mostly rely on is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a broad term that is comprised of a diverse group of treatments which, its effectiveness has been demonstrated in several randomized controlled trials.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Reviewed November 2021

Silvia is wonderful. This was my first time in therapy and I started because I had lots going on in my life and it seemed like a proactive thing to invest in as part of my mental health. I initially met with someone else and was discouraged by the experience but decided to keep trying. Then I met Silvia and she has just been a calming presence for me-I am so glad I stuck with it. I’m able to speak openly to her and she listens with empathy and provides perspective. I am so thankful to have found someone I connect with.
