Dr. Isibel Moreno , LMFT

Dr. Isibel Moreno brings a global perspective to her clinical work, shaped by early years in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic, and a family migration to the United States in 1995. She grew up with two siblings and developed a passion for both teaching and clinical training that guided her toward advanced study. As an author and presenter, she has traveled internationally to share her research and clinical ideas about heartbreak and how therapists can support people through that experience.

Her clinical training includes a PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy, a master’s in Mental Health Counseling, and dual bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and Business Administration from Nova Southeastern University. She is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - LMFT - and holds additional professional recognitions including AAMFT Approved Supervisor and AAMFT Clinical Fellow, as well as certification as a Florida State Approved Hypnotherapist and membership in the International Federation of Hypnosis and Related Organizations.

Dr. Moreno approaches therapy with a collaborative, piece-by-piece mindset, likening life to a puzzle in which clients and therapist work together to determine the next fitting piece. Her practice focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family issues, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, and a range of related challenges. She provides services in both English and Spanish and combines clinical knowledge with training and public education to support individuals and families navigating change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Dr. Moreno integrates client-centered therapy, mindfulness therapy, and hypnotherapy into her online practice to meet a variety of needs. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, helping clients clarify values, improve communication, and make choices that align with their goals. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and practical strategies to reduce stress and manage anxiety, which can be especially helpful for people coping with persistent worry or emotional reactivity. Hypnotherapy, offered as an additional modality, uses guided relaxation and focused attention to explore patterns of thought and behavior and support change in areas such as trauma responses, grief, or habit-related concerns.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Dr. Moreno works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time and invites client input to refine the plan of care.

Online therapy with Dr. Moreno is available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, coordinate work and family commitments, and access licensed professionals from different locations.
