Haiam Aboelella, LCSW - Therapist in Florida

About Haiam

Haiam Aboelella is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and many family-related concerns. She works with clients who are managing mood disorders such as bipolar and ADHD, and she offers support for relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem struggles.

Haiam speaks English and practices in Florida as an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She approaches therapy believing each person knows their own story and strengths.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on clear, practical steps rather than jargon. Haiam uses a mix of methods to teach skills, shift unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen emotional connection. Her style blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and elements from Emotionally-Focused and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

That allows her to teach coping skills, encourage values-based action, and improve how people relate to strong emotions. Haiam has five years of professional experience working with people facing life transitions, codependency, substance issues, and family problems. She also supports concerns such as anger, sleep or eating difficulties, and career stress.

Therapy sessions can use different formats to fit a person’s life. Haiam uses conversation and targeted exercises to practice new ways of handling problems between sessions. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling.

Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability.

How Haiam’s Methods Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and when life changes make it hard to act on what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and certain addictive behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and shift emotional responses to strengthen important relationships and reduce loneliness or isolation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work with Haiam. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether ACT, CBT, EFT, or a mix of methods will best address the client’s concerns and day-to-day challenges.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people see and speak in real time, phone sessions are handy when screens aren’t convenient, and live chat or text-based messaging provide short, focused check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still practicing new skills and tracking progress.

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.
