About Brian

Brian Squitieri is a Florida licensed mental health counselor who holds a Master of Arts degree in Mental Health Counseling and the credential LMHC, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor. With 12 years of clinical experience, he has developed expertise treating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and abuse, grief, and the stresses that accompany life transitions such as career changes. His practice also addresses relationship and family difficulties, parenting concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, ADHD, intimacy-related issues, and other challenges that affect daily functioning.

Brian emphasizes a collaborative, individualized approach to therapy. He listens closely and stays present in sessions to help clients co-create measurable plans and build practical coping skills. Treatment focuses on developing insight, strengthening communication, and learning strategies to better manage difficult emotions and behaviors. He draws on several evidence-informed methods including client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to tailor work to each person’s needs.

Many clients notice positive changes within about a month of beginning treatment, as therapeutic goals are pursued in concrete, trackable ways. Brian’s work centers on meeting clients where they are and helping them move toward improved well-being and clearer problem-solving.

Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Brian uses client-centered therapy to build a respectful, collaborative relationship where the person's goals and experiences guide the work; this approach helps people who need a supportive space to explore values, identity, and life direction. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship struggles, and impulsivity.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Brian works collaboratively with each client to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made and priorities evolve.

Online therapy provides practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing clients to fit therapy into work, family, and daily routines. These options help licensed professionals and therapists maintain continuity of care, support access for those with mobility or scheduling limits, and make it easier to continue work during life transitions or while managing chronic conditions.
