Brian Squitieri, LMHC

Brian Squitieri is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with a Masters of Arts in Mental Health Counseling and 12 years of experience. He focuses on practical help for everyday struggles like anxiety, depression, anger, grief, and stress. Brian emphasizes listening first and tailoring therapy to each person.

He aims to build a clear plan with measurable steps and milestones. Sessions focus on developing coping skills and communication tools that can be used outside the room. He helps people manage difficult emotions and reduce behaviors that get in the way of their goals.

Brian uses a collaborative style. He listens for what matters most and stays with people as they work through change. The work is paced to fit the person's needs, and goals are reviewed regularly to track progress.

Therapy can include trying new ways of thinking and acting, learning mindfulness to reduce stress, and practicing skills to handle intense feelings. He also helps people facing big life transitions like career shifts or family role changes.

People who are looking for focused, goal-oriented support may find his approach helpful. He explains tools plainly and spends time making sure they make sense for each person. If ready to begin, clients follow a short matching process and schedule sessions based on availability.

Approaches and online therapy that fit your life

Client-centered therapy is about meeting each person where they are. The therapist listens carefully and helps shape goals based on what matters most to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to change mood and stress. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and problems that respond to clear behavior changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for handling strong emotions and improving relationships by mixing acceptance and change strategies.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made and new challenges appear.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commuting time. It also helps people try mindfulness practices and homework exercises between meetings so skills can be used in daily life.
