About Wanda
Wanda earned a Bachelor of Science in Gerontology, which gave her insight into lifespan issues and real-world experience as a caregiver and protective case manager. She later completed a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and holds Florida LMHC licensure. These experiences shape how she thinks about aging, caregiving, and life transitions.
Her work often centers on women across different life stages, though she also sees male clients and frequently supports adolescents and teens. Wanda uses a flexible mix of approaches and pays attention to each person's unique needs when planning sessions.
In sessions she focuses on clear conversations and practical steps people can try between meetings. Techniques are drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, mindfulness, existential thinking, and motivational interviewing, used in ways that fit each person.
Wanda also addresses a broad set of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including parenting stress, relationship challenges, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and end-of-life caregiving issues. She aims to help people find clearer perspective and manageable next steps.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead. It helps people feel heard, clarify goals, and build on their own strengths. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and offers concrete tools to change patterns that increase anxiety or depression. Existential Therapy helps people talk about meaning, values, and life choices when facing big transitions or loss.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Wanda works collaboratively to decide which methods fit best for each person based on needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation can continue and change as progress is made.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer not being on camera, while others like the visual connection; Wanda can adjust the format to match what helps someone engage and make steady progress.
