Lucila Coba, LMHC

Lucila Coba is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida. She uses an integrative approach that pulls from several therapies to match what each person needs. Lucila speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first step toward help feel manageable and respectful.

She focuses on stress and anxiety, relationship and intimacy challenges, and parenting concerns. She also helps people facing grief, life transitions, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Aging and geriatric issues and caregiver stress are listed among her additional areas of focus.

Lucila blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered methods, mindfulness practices, and Motivational Interviewing. In practice that means she helps people notice what matters, test new thoughts and behaviors, and use simple mindfulness skills to steady difficult moments. Sessions are shaped around a person’s goals and pace.

With 12 years of experience as an LMHC - licensed mental health counselor - she brings steady, practical support to conversations about family of origin issues, communication problems, and major life changes. She encourages people to tap their own strengths while trying new ways of coping.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. She invites clients to talk through values, set realistic steps, and track small wins. If you prefer English or Spanish, she can meet in either language.

How her approaches translate to online work

Lucila uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as core tools. ACT helps people clarify personal values and take small, meaningful actions even when feelings are hard. CBT focuses on noticing patterns of thinking and testing practical behavior changes to reduce distress.

She also draws on client-centered and mindfulness methods to create a calm, grounded pace. Client-centered work centers the person’s experience and priorities, while mindfulness teaches brief practices to steady attention during stressful moments. Together these approaches help with anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and life transitions.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process shapes whether sessions lean more toward ACT, CBT, or mindfulness techniques.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions help maintain continuity of care while they manage caregiving, work, or other daily demands.
