Mayra Martinez Gelabert , LMHC

Mayra Martinez Gelabert is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 25 years of professional experience. As an LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor), she has worked extensively with people facing stress and anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and depression.

She works with clients to create an open, safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment, helping individuals explore their concerns and take steps toward relief. Her approach emphasizes respectful listening and steady support throughout the therapeutic process.

Mayra recognizes that beginning therapy can take courage and values the decision to reach out for help. She aims to meet each person where they are and provide steady guidance as they engage in change and healing.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Therapy

Mayra draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the issues clients bring. Skills-based interventions focus on practical coping strategies for stress and anxiety and aim to reduce symptom impact and improve daily functioning. Trauma-informed approaches prioritize sensitivity to past harm and support careful processing of traumatic experiences to aid recovery. Family-focused strategies address communication and relational patterns to help resolve conflicts and strengthen connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work - Mayra collaborates with each person to identify methods that best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She reviews options together with clients and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds so the therapy fits the individual.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to connect with licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult, while still supporting meaningful therapeutic progress.
