Zoe Skowronski, LCSW, EMDRIA-Approved, Evergreen C-DBT Certified 📍 Licensed in Florida – SW22535 📅 Offering Virtual Therapy for Women Across Florida I specialize in helping women navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, and borderline personality disorder (BPD). Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in self-destructive patterns, or struggling to manage your emotions, my approach is designed to provide real, evidence-based skills that make a difference. Why Work With Me? 🌿 ✔ Specialized Training – I’m certified in DBT and EMDR to provide structured, results-driven therapy for trauma, emotional dysregulation, and complex mental health challenges. ✔ Extensive Experience – Before private practice, I worked in intensive outpatient (IOP) and partial hospitalization (PHP) settings, where I helped people facing some of the most difficult struggles of their lives. This experience has shaped my direct yet compassionate therapy approach. ✔ Therapy That Feels Natural – Our sessions won’t feel like a script—they’ll feel like a conversation where you feel seen, heard, and supported while gaining the skills to regain control of your emotions and life. My Therapy Approach 🔹 💠 Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Rewiring negative thought patterns for a healthier mindset 💠 Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) – Managing intense emotions and building relationship skills 💠 Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) – Healing from trauma and PTSD 💠 Supportive Therapy – A validating, nonjudgmental space to process emotions and life challenges

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

During our first session, we’ll take the time to explore your history, current challenges, and goals for therapy in a way that feels safe and supportive. I’ll ask about your experiences with anxiety, trauma, relationships, mood, and any patterns you’ve noticed in your emotions or behaviors. This is a collaborative process—I’ll never push you to discuss anything before you’re ready. Based on our discussion, I’ll provide personalized treatment recommendations, which may include weekly or twice-weekly sessions depending on your needs and symptom severity. We’ll also discuss the therapy approaches that will best support your healing, such as EMDR, DBT, or CBT, and start setting a foundation for meaningful progress. My goal is to ensure you feel comfortable, validated, and confident that therapy is the right step for you.

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

When you work with me, you’ll feel truly seen, heard, and understood. I’m committed to validating your unique experiences and providing support in a way that resonates with you. Many of my clients have worked with other providers without feeling real progress, while others have spent countless hours searching for someone they can be their authentic selves with. I strive to be that person—the one who truly gets it and helps you move forward in a meaningful way so you can start feeling better.

My treatment methods

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Individual DBT skills training is a collaborative process where you and I work together to explore and practice specific DBT skills that are most relevant to your life. Whether you’re struggling with regulating your emotions, communicating effectively in relationships, or coping with distressing situations, I will provide guidance and support as you develop and integrate these skills into your daily life.

EMDR

EMDR therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy that helps individuals process and heal from distressing or traumatic experiences. Developed by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s, EMDR utilizes bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements, hand tapping, or auditory tones, to facilitate the brain’s natural healing process and alleviate emotional distress.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is a structured, goal-oriented therapy that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It operates on the principle that our thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors, and by changing our thought patterns, we can change how we feel and act.

Humanistic

Humanistic therapy emphasizes individual potential, personal growth, and self-awareness. It encourages clients to explore their feelings and experiences in a non-judgmental, empathetic environment, helping them achieve self-acceptance and fulfillment. This approach, often associated with Carl Rogers and Abraham Maslow, believes that people are inherently good and capable of making positive choices. The therapist acts as a guide, fostering a supportive relationship where clients can discover their true selves, gain insight into their emotions, and realize their full potential for personal growth and self-actualization.

Eclectic

I typically use a blend of therapy styles and tailor my approach to you!
