About Amada
Amada Tro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Florida with 30 years of professional experience. She works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and sleep problems. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Her approach centers on practical, structured methods that help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going and to test new ways of thinking and acting. Client-Centered Therapy informs how she listens and responds, giving the person space to describe what matters most.
Mindfulness techniques are part of her work when slowing down and noticing physical and emotional reactions helps reduce reactivity. She also supports people dealing with grief, parenting stress, anger, mood disorders including depression and bipolar, and attention challenges such as ADHD. Additional focus areas include trauma-related concerns like sexual assault and domestic violence, as well as obsessive or panic symptoms.
Amada emphasizes practical steps and clear goals in sessions. She treats each meeting as an opportunity to practice skills and review what worked between meetings. Her style is straightforward and centered on helping people build habits that fit daily life.
People who choose her often want concrete tools for managing symptoms and clearer ways to handle relationships and responsibilities. To begin, she asks prospective clients to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
CBT is about identifying specific thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and trying small experiments to change them. Online work can include structured worksheets, activity planning, and reviewing what happened between sessions to build new habits. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. In remote sessions that means the therapist spends time clarifying priorities and letting the client lead which issues to address each meeting. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of physical signals. These brief practices can be used in short check-ins and as tools people practice during their day. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the client’s goals and life context. Sessions start with identifying immediate goals and then testing techniques that fit those goals. The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow brief check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people use written worksheets and screen-sharing for exercises during the session, which supports the practical, skill-based methods described above.Areas of expertise
