About Vernise Miguel

Vernise Miguel is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with three years of professional experience. She works with people who are managing stress and anxiety, recovering from trauma and abuse, or coping with depression, and she supports efforts to build self-esteem, confidence, and motivation. Her work emphasizes a collaborative, respectful stance that treats each person with sensitivity and compassion rather than relying on stigmatizing labels.

Vernise's therapeutic style is warm and interactive. She integrates cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment, and solution-focused ideas to shape conversations and treatment plans that reflect each client’s needs. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method, she tailors dialogue and goals so that care aligns with an individual’s circumstances and priorities.

She believes people are the authors of their own stories and that they have the capacity to pursue meaningful change. Seeking help is framed as a courageous first step toward a more fulfilling life, and Vernise positions herself as a supportive partner who empowers clients as they work toward their goals. She welcomes the opportunity to walk alongside those ready to take that step.

Approaches Used in Online Therapy with Vernise Miguel

Vernise draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life. ACT focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that align with what matters most, and it can be useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and chronic stress.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and creating a supportive therapeutic relationship. This approach helps clients explore their experiences at their own pace and build self-understanding and confidence.

In addition, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT offers practical tools for addressing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns by teaching skills that can be applied between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Vernise collaborates with each person to determine which combination of methods fits their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting the plan over time as progress unfolds.

Online sessions provide flexible options for care - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so clients can choose the format that best fits their schedule and comfort. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing daily responsibilities and life commitments.
