I know what it's like to struggle and please know that it DOES get better! In my early 20's I battled anxiety and made a vow to learn how to manage these symptoms and help others manage them too! I went back to school at Columbia University where I learned as much as I could about how to effectively treat mental health conditions and personal challenges. I understand both professionally AND personally how challenging life can be and believe fully in the healing power of a therapeutic relationship!

I believe effective mental health care starts with feeling heard, respected, and understood. I take a collaborative, non-judgmental approach and work closely with you to understand your goals, concerns, and life context—not just your symptoms.
I value clear communication and transparency, so I’ll explain diagnoses, treatment options, and medications in a way that’s easy to understand. My goal is to help you feel confident and informed about your care, not rushed or overwhelmed.
I provide evidence-based medication management while considering the whole person—mental, emotional, and physical health. I welcome questions and encourage active participation in treatment decisions so we can create a plan that truly fits your needs.
Whether you’re seeking care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, or ongoing medication management, I aim to create a supportive, safe space where progress feels achievable and care feels personal.

Welcome! Creating a space where you feel safe, heard, and understood is the cornerstone of my clinical practice. I am Dr. Lyda HG. I am a National Board-Certified Counselor (NCC) and Licensed Professional Counselor to practice in Florida (LMHC). I obtained my PhD in Counseling at George Washington University and my master’s in clinical Mental Health at Villanova University.
I am a Catholic, bilingual, and bicultural clinical mental health counselor providing services in English and Spanish. I migrated to the United States 19 years ago as an international student. I bring a deep understanding of diverse lived experiences and the unique stressors related to acculturation and immigration. Also, I am an assistant professor, proudly teaching at the university level, to the next generation of master and doctoral students in Counseling.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, especially when you're carrying anxiety, depression, mood changes, or emotions that seem difficult to manage on your own. I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel heard without judgment and supported through life's challenges. Whether you're navigating ADHD, bipolar disorder, anger management concerns, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, identity questions, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to help you better understand yourself while building the tools you need to move forward. I work with both adolescents and adults, recognizing that every stage of life brings unique experiences and obstacles. Together, we'll create a supportive, collaborative environment where you can explore what's weighing on you, discover your strengths, and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.

Hi!
My name is Alexis. I have been practicing as a clinician for 15+ years. I have seen, heard and experienced it all with clients. There has not been one time where I have judged a person or their behaviors in a negative manner. I strongly believe we are all good people deep inside yet sometimes we are faced with challenges that bring out not the best sides of us. Sometimes we are all in situations where we so strongly want to respond a certain way, yet can't bring ourselves to do so. Sometimes life happens TO US and we are uncertain how to proceed with confidence and calmness. I have been trained in several forms of therapy that will allow me to help an individual or couple in whatever stressor they find themselves dealing with. The most important aspect of my therapy is to teach the client the tools they need to wake up each morning and live their life with appreciation and peace.
I work with children, adolescents, adults and couples. I am trained in several trauma therapies including EMDR and Trauma Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I am greatly drawn to CBT and Solution Focused modalities as well. People reach out for therapy for all different reasons. If you find yourself in a situation causing you distress and you are seeking help for it, give yourself a pat on the back, the first step in healing has been accomplished.
I am excited to meet you and I appreciate you taking the time to read my bio.
