About Diandra

Diandra Ortiz is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who blends evidence-based methods to guide people through complex life challenges.

Background and approach

She centers her work on practical, skills-based strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness-informed therapies, while also using emotionally focused and client-centered techniques to support deeper relational and identity concerns. Her practice includes attention to stress, anxiety, mood disorders, substance and process addictions, grief, trauma, self-esteem, and ADHD, among other concerns.

Across five years of clinical experience she aims to create an affirming, culturally responsive space where clients can explore patterns, process past difficulties, and build sustainable coping tools. Fluent in English and Spanish, she emphasizes collaboration and individualized treatment planning so each person’s values and goals shape the therapeutic work.

Diandra helps clients translate insight into concrete steps for improved emotional regulation, healthier relationships, and greater day-to-day functioning.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Remote Care

Diandra often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take committed action toward a meaningful life; ACT focuses on willingness to experience difficult thoughts and feelings while moving toward what matters. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a skills-oriented approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, and mood-related problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) informs her work around relational and attachment concerns by helping people understand emotional responses and create more stable connections.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to evaluate symptoms, goals, and preferences and then adapt techniques from ACT, CBT, or EFT as appropriate to create a tailored plan that evolves over time.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and varied communication styles. These formats allow clients to access licensed professionals from different locations, fit therapy into daily life more easily, and continue care during transitions or travel.
