Hi, I’m Kaydianne and I help adults create the life they deserve—one where peace and fulfillment are possible again. My goal is to help you experience more of the good moments while learning how to move through the difficult ones with strength and understanding. Everyone deserves the opportunity to reach their fullest potential, and therapy can be a powerful step toward that goal.
My Approach to Therapy
I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing to help you identify unhelpful patterns, build new coping tools, and move toward lasting change. I also draw from Trauma-Focused CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Positive Psychology, and Reality Therapy as needed to match your unique situation.
I understand what it’s like to feel the weight of helping others while neglecting yourself. I specialize in supporting helping professionals—doctors, nurses, and mental-health providers—who want to prevent burnout, find balance, and restore joy in both their work and personal lives.
For my BIPOC clients, I provide a space to process intergenerational trauma, cultural pressures, and inequalities, so you can feel seen, valued, and empowered.
Why I Became a Therapist
My journey began during a senior-year psychology class—when everything clicked! That moment sparked a lifelong interest in understanding people and helping them heal. Over time, my personal experiences deepened that calling.
As a young immigrant, I struggled to find my place in a community where my culture wasn’t represented. Later, I faced the pain of an abusive relationship and the loss of loved ones. Those experiences taught me how isolating life can feel when you don’t have someone to guide you through it.
I became a therapist because I wanted to be that guide—to help others find light in dark places and rediscover their strength.
My Professional Background
I earned my Bachelor’s in Psychology from Florida International University and my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University.
For over ten years, I’ve worked in both community mental-health and substance-use-treatment settings, supporting clients through trauma, addiction, and major life transitions. Those experiences shaped my compassionate, practical, and results-oriented style of therapy.
As a Qualified Supervisor (QS), I also provide professional supervision and mentorship to emerging mental-health counselors seeking licensure in Florida—work that continually renews my passion for this field.
What You Can Expect
When you begin therapy with me, you’ll enter a space that’s safe, judgment-free, and built on trust. I’ll help you make sense of how your past connects to your present and support you as you create new patterns that serve the life you want to live.
You can expect honesty, warmth, and genuine care. I’ll cheer you on when you need encouragement and challenge you when it’s time to grow. We’ll walk this path together—one step at a time.
