About Silvia

Silvia Bibas is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL LMHC) with 20 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting questions, and changes that come with life transitions.

She focuses on practical conversation and clear steps. Sessions look at what is happening now and what can be changed next. She draws on approaches such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, and emotionally-focused methods to help people understand patterns and try small changes.

Silvia values the client as the expert in their own life. She listens for strengths and past solutions to build on. That can help when someone is facing grief, low self-esteem, career setbacks, or intimacy-related issues.

She also supports people coping with trauma and abuse, postpartum depression, multicultural and immigration concerns, and blended family issues. Her work includes attention to burnout and compassion fatigue for those in helping roles.

Conversations are direct and practical. Goal-setting and short-term tools are common parts of sessions. Silvia will work with each person to find what helps them manage emotions, reduce worry, and improve daily routines.

She offers services in English and Spanish and practices from Florida as an FL LMHC. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the online therapy options.

Approach and what online sessions look like

Silvia uses client-centered work to focus on what matters to each person and to draw out existing strengths. That approach lets the client set priorities while the therapist supports reflection and decision making.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is often useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress where practical steps can reduce symptoms over time. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) is used when relationship patterns and emotional responses are central. EFT can help people name feelings and try different ways of connecting in close relationships.

Figuring out which approach to use is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match a client's goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include adjusting focus as progress is reviewed.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats. Confirm available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, shorten the travel time needed for appointments, and allow check-ins that suit a weekday break or evening routine. Therapists and licensed professionals will discuss session length and scheduling when you begin.
