About Mercy

Mercy Estevez is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Florida who helps people facing grief, depression, anxiety, substance use concerns, and major life changes. She brings 12 years of experience and a calm, motivational approach. Mercy aims to support people as they set goals and make practical changes.

Her style centers on the person in front of her. She uses client-centered listening so people can tell their story and decide what matters most. Sessions are nonjudgmental and focused on helping people gain control over problems rather than having solutions imposed on them.

Mercy often works with clients on practical steps for coping and growth. She helps people clarify goals, find small changes that add up, and build strategies to manage stress, anger, or addiction. The work can include pacing change, trying different strategies, and checking what works in day-to-day life.

She also uses mindfulness practices to help with anxiety and emotional regulation. Motivational techniques are part of sessions when someone needs help moving from thinking about change to taking action. Trauma-focused methods are available when past hurt is part of the concern.

People who meet with Mercy can expect straightforward conversation and collaborative planning. She aims to create space for honest talk and steady progress toward the goals people name.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Mercy uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person's needs, listening closely and helping clients set their own goals. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to sort through feelings and choices.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple practices for calming the mind and managing anxiety or stress. Motivational Interviewing supports people who want change but feel stuck by helping them find their own reasons to move forward.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Mercy will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit those goals. She checks in and adjusts the plan as needed so the work matches what the person finds useful.
