Angelica Romero, LICSW, LCSW - Therapist in Florida

About Angelica

Angelica Romero trained as a social worker after serving in the military and brings 12 years of practical experience to her work. She holds LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker) and LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) credentials and practices in Florida. Angelica speaks English and Spanish and draws on her life experience to meet people where they are.

Her style is direct and warm. She uses clear, everyday language and focuses on what matters now.

Background and approach

Sessions look at current stress, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem, career concerns, life transitions, and family issues. She also addresses related areas such as caregiver stress, divorce and separation, domestic violence, postpartum depression, and immigration challenges. Angelica blends practical methods with reflective listening.

She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and to try small behavior changes. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address traumatic memories and Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on each person’s goals. Many people appreciate her straightforward, collaborative way of working.

She invites clients to set goals and test what helps between sessions. She pays attention to symptoms like panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive patterns, guilt, and isolation while keeping steps manageable. Her background in the military and as someone from an immigrant family informs her perspective.

That experience contributes empathy for life changes, cultural adjustment, and the pressures of service-related roles. She aims to help individuals feel more steady and able to face daily challenges.

How Angelica's Methods Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and building goals together. Online sessions using this approach begin with listening and then shape techniques around what the person finds most helpful.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test small changes in behavior. In virtual sessions this often means setting brief, practical tasks between meetings and reviewing what changed.

EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories. When used online it follows guided steps to reduce the intensity of painful recollections while working at a pace the client tolerates.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That means trying things, checking how they feel, and adjusting plans together.

Online care makes these methods easier to access. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions are useful when video isn’t possible. Live chat and text messaging offer quick ways to check in or use brief tools between meetings. These options give flexibility for different schedules and daily demands, while allowing licensed professionals to guide treatment across distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

EMDR

A structured protocol used with distressing memories, pairing recall with guided attention tasks. Some therapists adapt it for video sessions; whether that fits is worth asking about directly.
