About Izayana

Izayana Borek is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Florida. She uses a warm, collaborative style to help parents and families navigate difficult moments. Izayana speaks English and Spanish and brings three years of clinical experience to sessions.

She aims to make conversations straightforward and practical for busy caregivers. She focuses on family and parenting challenges alongside relationship strain and trauma. Izayana also works with grief, anger, addictions, intimacy concerns, eating issues, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

Additional areas she addresses include adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and communication problems. Her approach centers on the person in front of her. Client-Centered Therapy guides how she listens and responds.

Narrative Therapy helps people reframe stories that keep them stuck. Solution-Focused Therapy targets clear, achievable steps for change. Sessions often look like direct conversation about what is most pressing.

She helps parents set practical goals, try small changes, and notice what improves. Izayana avoids labels and focuses on workable strategies that fit each family’s life. Parents who prefer Spanish can use that language in sessions.

Her practice uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care for families

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and respect. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what she hears, and helps parents feel understood so they can make clearer decisions. This approach is useful when someone needs support without judgment and wants to explore how they really feel.

Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and their families. By separating the person from the problem, it becomes easier to see different options and to rewrite limiting narratives. This can be helpful for coping with trauma, family-of-origin patterns, and feelings of shame.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then tailor methods to each family’s needs. Treatment is collaborative and adjusted as progress or priorities change.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy caregivers. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions are available when video is not possible, and live chat or text messaging provide shorter check-ins or support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a family schedule while still working on clear goals and small, practical steps.

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.

Narrative Therapy

Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
