Kelly Dambra, LMHC

Kelly Dambra is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She brings nine years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Kelly speaks English and aims to make therapy understandable and practical for everyday life.

Her style is warm and interactive. She focuses on building a collaborative relationship so clients feel involved in deciding what comes next. Sessions draw on a mix of approaches to match each person's needs and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Kelly often helps people who have experienced trauma, including sexual or emotional abuse. She also works with concerns like self-esteem struggles, intimacy-related issues, addictions, grief, and compassion fatigue. Practical issues such as workplace stress, panic attacks, and mood disorders are within her areas of focus.

In sessions she emphasizes strengths people already have and uses small, manageable steps to build change. She offers a nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult topics and try new ways of coping. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s readiness.

To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. Kelly uses an approach that adapts to your priorities, so the focus shifts as progress is made and new concerns arise.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead to understand what matters most. It helps people who need a supportive space to talk through feelings and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and offers practical steps to change unhelpful routines, which can help with anxiety, panic, and mood problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaboration makes it easier to adjust direction if something isn't working or new needs appear.

For practical session planning, please confirm which online formats are offered before booking since formats are not specified here. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats work better when a quieter space or less bandwidth is helpful, while others suit longer, more interactive work. Discuss scheduling and format preferences during the initial matching and planning steps to find what fits your life.
