About Ariadna

Ariadna Soriano is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who offers practical, skill-based therapy for parents and individuals in Florida. She brings six years of professional counseling experience and focuses on helping people handle anxiety, stress, parenting struggles, addiction, and relationship challenges. Sessions concentrate on real-life tools that can be used between meetings.

The tone is warm and straightforward, aimed at people who want clear steps and steady support. Her approach combines evidence-based techniques with attention to daily life habits like sleep, movement, and simple mindfulness.

Background and approach

She uses strategies drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address unhelpful thoughts and actions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) informed skills are included to help identify emotions, calm the body, and set boundaries. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients take value-driven actions even when emotions are difficult.

Therapy plans are individualized and built around each person’s strengths and routines. Sessions may include brief homework, practice exercises, and coaching on everyday self-care. Work is offered through telehealth across Florida, using formats that fit busy family schedules.

Communication options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Ariadna describes her style as structured but compassionate, helping clients make steady, practical progress. Many parents and caregivers find this approach useful for juggling parenting demands, managing behavior or mood concerns, and improving family communication.

The focus remains on approachable tools and small, sustainable changes that fit family life.

Approaches that translate well to online family care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions aligned with those values, even when feelings are hard. It can be useful for parenting stress, anxiety, and navigating big life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that maintain problems; it is practical for anxiety, sleep issues, and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) informed skills teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and boundary-setting, which can help with intense reactions and relationship conflicts.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, needs, and daily realities, then recommend techniques to try. Plans are adjusted over time based on what works for the client and their family routines.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy households. Video calls let families work face to face without travel, while phone sessions can fit short breaks in the day. Live chat or text-based messaging can help with brief check-ins, homework support, or ongoing coaching between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent amid school, work, and caregiving demands.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a 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.
