About Myra
Myra Brown is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about their next step. She speaks plainly and meets people where they are. Her style is respectful and focused on practical progress rather than labels or jargon.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help clients learn new ways to respond to stress and anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to identify small, achievable steps. Trauma-Focused Therapy is applied when people bring experiences of abuse or post-traumatic stress that need careful attention.
Myra builds a clear plan with each person she sees. She asks about goals, obstacles, and what has helped in the past. Sessions focus on skills you can try between meetings and on realistic steps toward the changes you want.
With ten years of experience, she has worked with concerns such as depression, anxiety, anger, ADHD symptoms, grief, and mood disorders. She also supports people dealing with parenting stresses, workplace strain, relationship struggles, and major life transitions.
Myra holds an MA and practices as an LMHC in Florida. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. People who choose her describe a straightforward approach that aims to clarify goals and build momentum toward them.

How these approaches guide online therapy
Myra often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find what matters to them and to build motivation for change. This approach focuses on exploring ambivalence and drawing out the client's own reasons for trying something different.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to practice small behavior changes. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and mood issues because it gives clear skills to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before deciding which methods to emphasize. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as needs evolve.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss scheduling needs during the matching process to find a rhythm that fits everyday life. -
