About Dagmar
Dagmar Mirabal is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on practical, down-to-earth therapy. She draws on client-centered work and proven techniques to help people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and mood struggles. Dagmar speaks English and Spanish and practices in Florida as an LCSW.
She aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone looking for change. Her approach begins with listening. She creates a straightforward, nonjudgmental space so people can talk through what’s most pressing.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize understanding thoughts and feelings and then trying small, useful changes. Dagmar blends cognitive behavioral ideas with client-centered and existential perspectives to help clients find clarity and direction. She has 13 years of professional experience working with concerns such as parenting, family challenges, addictions, intimacy issues, ADHD, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
That background informs a practical style - focused on decisions, goals, and real-life coping skills rather than abstract theory. In sessions she helps identify unhelpful patterns and supports better decision-making. Clients work on goals that are realistic and tied to everyday life.
The work often includes learning new ways to manage emotions, relieve anxiety, and repair communication. Dagmar uses a collaborative stance and motivational techniques to encourage action. She supports people through life transitions, grief, and recovery from difficult experiences.
Her aim is to help clients build confidence and take steps toward a more satisfying day-to-day life.
Practical approaches and online therapy that fit your life
Dagmar often uses client-centered therapy, which centers on listening and understanding a person’s experience first. This approach helps people feel heard and then decide what changes matter most to them. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.Finding the right approach usually happens together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that match those needs. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These options let people meet from home, fit sessions into busy schedules, and use shorter check-ins or longer conversations as needed. For many, the range of formats makes it easier to keep working toward goals while handling daily responsibilities.
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.
Existential Therapy
Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
