I am Lena Lyons a LMHC with the state of Florida. I have more than 16 years of counseling experience working with youth, adults and couples. I attempt to meet people where they are physically, mentally and emotionally. I listen to the client without judgment and with compassion. I have worked with individual in corporate careers, law enforcement, incarcerated males, substance use/abuse, domestic violence and much more.
At the first session, building rapport, setting boundaries, psycho-education and answering questions of concern/interest.
I have learned to be attentative to the temperature of the client. What are the needs and wants of the client not what I think they need.
I am willing and able to serve all different clients who are struggling from grief, depression, anxiety and some traumatic events. I can also assist and support clients with ADHD, person who are easily overwhelmed with life events, individuals who are struggling with overthinking, indecisiveness and building responsible supportive relationships.
I have been using person-centered treatment modality for as long as I have been practicing. Person Centered Therapy proves to be an individualized and an effective tool to support a baseline for planning short term and long term goals.
Change begins in the mind. I have used this treatment in conjunction with solution focused therapy to reduce any type of mood and thought deficits to assist with managing mood and emotional imbalances.
I have recently implemented this modality. I do believe most issues people are experiencing can be managed through the Christian principles.
Helps understand the process and how to manage grief in one's own mental capacity.
