About Freedah

Freedah Exavier is a licensed mental health counselor who uses a warm, practical style to help people manage stress, parenting challenges, anxiety, and mood struggles. She speaks plainly and listens closely. Sessions focus on realistic steps, clearer communication, and building strengths parents and caregivers can use at home.

Freedah makes space for goals that matter to each person and works at a steady, encouraging pace. Freedah trained at Palm Beach Atlantic University where she completed a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology on the Clinical Mental Health track.

Background and approach

She also holds a Bachelor of Science with a minor in education from the University of Central Florida. Her eight years of experience include work with adults, adolescents, and children across different settings. Her approach mixes Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness practices.

In session she uses practical exercises, skill-building, and reflective conversation to help with anger, self-esteem, and communication problems. She also addresses trauma-related concerns, ADHD, and parenting stress with tools clients can try between meetings. Parents who want direct feedback and straightforward strategies often find this approach useful.

Freedah pays attention to each person’s unique strengths and helps them shape routines that support family life. She focuses on step-by-step progress rather than quick fixes. Therapy with Freedah includes instruction in coping skills, emotion regulation, and social skills training when helpful.

The work aims to create clearer boundaries, reduce conflict, and support healthier daily habits. Above all, she centers respect and practical problem solving in sessions.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and respect, with the therapist following the client's pace and priorities to build trust and clarify goals. This approach is helpful when someone needs a supportive space to talk through parenting stress or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavioral experiments. CBT is practical for anxiety, mood concerns, anger, and skills like communication and problem solving.

Mindfulness Therapy adds simple attention and breathing exercises to help manage strong emotions and increase present-moment awareness. These skills are often paired with other techniques to reduce reactivity and support calmer responses at home.

Choosing the right blend of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match approaches to their needs, goals, and preferences rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Clients can try different techniques and adjust the plan as they go.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety makes it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and to practice skills between meetings. The format supports regular contact and follow-up while letting clients choose what mode of communication feels most comfortable.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
