About Dhaima
She leans on approaches that emphasize problem solving and clear steps forward. Solution-Focused Therapy helps people clarify what they want from therapy and build small, achievable changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and teaches tools to shift unhelpful patterns.
Dhaima’s practice also uses Client-Centered techniques that prioritize the client’s goals and rhythm. Mindfulness ideas are woven in to help people stay present and reduce reactivity. Together these methods aim to restore insight and momentum when life feels stuck.
With seven years of experience, she has worked across multiple settings and now maintains a private practice in Florida. She supports work on family and parenting concerns, caregiver stress, career decisions, self-esteem, and life transitions. The profile also notes a focus on aging and geriatric issues and related caregiver dynamics.
Her approach is collaborative and practical. Sessions focus on identifying the problem, testing small solutions, and building skills clients can use after therapy. People who want clear goals and tools may find this style helpful.

How solution-focused and cognitive tools translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the client’s priorities first and builds sessions around what the person wants to achieve. This approach is useful for discussing family and parenting concerns, life transitions, and caregiver stress because sessions follow the client’s pace and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete tools to notice thought patterns and try different behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress by breaking bigger problems into small, testable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That might mean emphasizing solution-focused techniques in short-term work or using CBT tools for skill-building over time.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine and to continue momentum between appointments. It also allows for shorter check-ins or conversations that focus on practicing new skills when needed. Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what options are offered, and discuss scheduling and session length to find a workable plan.
