Dominique DeMent, LCSW

Dominique DeMent is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Florida who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She works with clients who have concerns related to LGBT issues and supports people coping with loss. Dominique aims to offer a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate place to begin difficult conversations.

She adapts conversations and plans to the needs of each person. That means shaping sessions around what feels most useful for you, whether that is practical coping skills, making sense of painful memories, or building stronger day-to-day routines. Dominique draws on eight years of professional experience to guide choices about what to try next.

Her broader experience includes adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, communication challenges, and post-traumatic stress. She also has worked with issues such as self-worth, sexuality, sexual assault and abuse, impulsivity, intellectual disability, and first responder stress.

Dominique believes starting therapy takes courage and she acknowledges that first step. She collaborates with clients to set goals and to decide what progress looks like over time. Sessions take place with a clear focus on what matters to the individual.

Approaches that guide online work and what to expect

Dominique uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. She focuses on practical coping strategies that teach skills for managing anxiety and stress, such as grounding and breathing exercises and step-by-step plans to handle overwhelming moments. These techniques help with day-to-day symptoms and make it easier to stay functional between sessions.

She also draws on approaches aimed at processing trauma and grief. That work typically involves revisiting painful memories at a manageable pace, building ways to tolerate strong emotions, and finding meaning after loss. This kind of approach supports people who are coping with sexual assault, abuse, or post-traumatic stress symptoms.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Dominique will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences, and together you will decide which techniques to try. She adjusts plans over time based on what helps and what feels realistic for your life.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know the exact formats offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and let people check in from different locations when schedules change. Some options may also allow shorter check-ins when full sessions are not possible, so therapy can fit into real life without forcing major schedule changes.
