Breanne Stanert, LMHC

Breanne Stanert is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who brings a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy. She keeps sessions collaborative and straightforward, focusing on what a person needs right now. Her style is warm and direct, and she often assigns short practice tasks between meetings to help skills stick.

With 14 years of experience, she has supported people facing anxiety, trauma, grief, substance use concerns, ADHD, and relationship strain. She has also worked with issues such as gender dysphoria, self-harm history, and co-occurring mental health needs. Aging and geriatric issues are included among her additional focus areas.

In sessions she emphasizes building strong rapport and working as a team with each person toward clear goals. She uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused work, alongside client-centered listening and mindfulness exercises. Motivational interviewing can be part of the plan when making behavior changes is a goal.

Breanne prefers to be transparent about paperwork and documentation. She generally considers letters or formal documentation only after a consistent period of work together, typically no less than six to eight sessions. That helps ensure assessments and requests reflect stable progress rather than early impressions.

She balances work with family life and asks people to share scheduling needs up front. To start, readers are invited to use the site process to match and schedule a session based on the therapist's availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experience, so sessions focus on listening carefully and shaping the work around what matters most to the individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks concerns into thoughts, actions, and feelings and uses practical exercises to change patterns that keep problems going. Mindfulness Therapy brings simple awareness and grounding practices into daily life to reduce reactivity and stress.

Figuring out which approach or mix of approaches will help is part of the early work. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they want to address. That choice can shift as progress is made and new needs appear.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session formats available before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time, and let people use quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth connections when needed. Licensed professionals can offer the same kinds of practical tools, homework, and collaborative planning over virtual sessions as they do in person, helping clients maintain momentum between meetings.
