Hello, my name is Luiza and I am the owner of FIT MIND counseling services. Luiza is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in FL and a Licensed Professional Counselor in DC and GA. FIT MIND counseling services enjoys empowering clients finding a more meaningful way to live their lives and assisting them learning about the importance of self-love. Helping clients to focus on themselves and on their self-care is a precious thing. When they learn to embrace and unconditionally love for being themselves, they become stronger in the face of negativity and more able to hold onto positive thoughts when faced with challenges. Mental illness is as real as any physical illness. We talk normally about cancer and diabetes, although the same should apply to mental illness. Emotional and mental health are just as important as the physical health of a human being. The emotional trauma that a brain endures in various of the human life cycle can be damaging and in the long run, just as detrimental as a psychical illness. People donate their organs, but they cannot donate their brains. Some people live with human-made hearts, but there is no such thing as human-made brains. I believe that our brain is the most important organ in our human body, so why don’t we start taking good care of it? ♥️ Therapy is not only for people with mental illness. Therapy is for everyone. We all have faced or currently face some hardships in life. Talking to a therapist can help you deeply in improving your mental health, decrease your stress and live with more joy and intention!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During the initial session, FIT MIND counseling services will provide an overview of the therapeutic process, discuss the significance of confidentiality, especially tailored for teenagers. FIT MIND will engage in a conversation to understand more about you, exploring your identity and delving into the goals you aim to achieve through therapy. Additionally, we will review the responses you provided in the Biopsychosocial Assessment. Towards the end of the first session, Luiza will take a few moments to share some information about herself. She believes in fostering an open and transparent therapeutic relationship, and unlike therapists who maintain a more reserved approach, she is willing to share aspects of herself. Feel free to ask any questions about me at any point during our sessions— she is there to ensure you feel comfortable and informed about your therapeutic journey.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interview Therapy and Cognitive Behavior Therapy.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Every client is different, so FIT MIND counseling services is always tailored for every individual. However, this practice likes to follow the Solution Focused Brief Therapy Model to help clients to view their concerns in terms of what is going RIGHT rather than what is going WRONG! Also, this practice follows the Motivational Interview Therapy Model to enhance clients motivation and collaboration in therapeutic journey.
