About Wilfredo
Wilfredo Guzman is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trauma and abuse, and LGBTQ concerns. His style is straightforward and collaborative, with a focus on practical steps people can use between sessions.
He trained at Rollins College, earning a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Central Florida. Over four years of clinical work have included roles supporting people experiencing homelessness, those living with HIV, at-risk youth and survivors of crime and trauma. That range has shaped a flexible approach to care.
Sessions aim to build a trusting working relationship and to set clear, realistic goals together. He uses methods drawn from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Trauma-Focused Therapy. In practice this means talking through what matters most, testing small changes, and adjusting plans that fit day-to-day life.
Wilfredo emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person’s pace. He encourages people to bring concrete problems to sessions so they can leave with usable strategies. Outside work he enjoys time near water and social activities that strengthen community.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational style that helps people find their own reasons for change. It focuses on asking open questions, reflecting back what matters, and supporting personal motivation for steps forward.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. The therapist listens deeply, follows the client’s lead, and helps people feel understood as they work through concerns.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It offers concrete skills people can practice to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try based on goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can change over time as priorities shift.
Because session formats are not specified in the original profile, confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy life, cut down commuting time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can use these approaches to help people apply practical tools between sessions and track progress over time. -
