About Jacinta
Jacinta Little is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, and depression. She has six years of clinical experience and works directly with individuals and with couples who are navigating relationship challenges.
Jacinta uses a client-centered style that focuses on each person’s goals and priorities. She listens first and then shapes sessions around what matters most to the client. This means conversations are practical and goal-oriented rather than one-size-fits-all.
Her work draws on several approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports people in clarifying values and taking meaningful steps, even when feelings are hard. Attachment-based ideas are used when early relationship patterns affect current connections.
Jacinta also applies Motivational Interviewing techniques to help people find and strengthen their own reasons for change. Sessions often mix gentle exploration with concrete strategies for coping and problem solving. She aims to create a respectful, compassionate space for that work.
People come to Jacinta for a wide range of concerns including panic, obsessive behaviors, chronic illness stress, grief, and communication problems. If you are considering therapy, she asks you to start with the intake steps on the site so you can match with her and schedule a first appointment.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Jacinta commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify personal values and take small steps toward them even when emotions are difficult. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, chronic illness stress, and problems with motivation.
She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thinking and change behavior through concrete exercises. CBT tends to be helpful for panic, obsessive behaviors, and mood concerns. Motivational Interviewing is used to support readiness for change by exploring ambivalence and strengthening personal reasons to act.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively with clients to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means experimenting and adjusting plans together rather than committing to a single path from the first session.
If you are thinking about online therapy, confirm the session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Talk with Jacinta during intake about which approach and session rhythm would fit your life best. -
