About Freedah
Freedah Exavier is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She brings eight years of experience and a warm, encouraging manner to sessions. Freedah focuses on practical steps that help clients manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD concerns.
Her background includes a Bachelor of Science with a minor in education from the University of Central Florida and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology - Clinical Mental Health track from Palm Beach Atlantic University.
Background and approach
Coursework also covered topics such as addiction and marriage and family therapy. Those studies shaped a practical, skills-focused approach to therapy. In sessions Freedah aims to be kind and problem-focused.
She listens, validates feelings, and works with each person to set clear goals. Techniques often include cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness exercises to shift thinking and reduce distress. Parents who are juggling behavior, boundaries, or the stress of caregiving can expect straightforward tools to try between sessions.
Freedah also offers support for relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy worries, and issues like isolation, body image, and guilt. She uses short assignments and skill practice to help changes stick. Her style is interactive and encouraging rather than purely instructive.
Clients can expect a collaborative tone, practical skill-building, and an emphasis on strengths and small, achievable steps toward the goals they name.

How client-centered and CBT approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy centers on a respectful, listening-first stance. The therapist offers empathy, reflection, and support while you name goals and pace. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance, clearer direction, and space to sort feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short exercises and doable homework to test thinking patterns and reduce anxiety, depression, anger, or parenting stress. Mindfulness Therapy invites simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment focus, which often helps with stress, impulsivity, and emotion regulation.
Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and then try techniques that match what you want to change. If something isn’t helping, adjustments are made together so the plan fits your life.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls provide a face-to-face feel for deeper conversations and demonstrations of skills. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let clients send quick updates, work through brief exercises between sessions, or communicate when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and day-to-day life.
