About Darcy
Darcy Pare is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with nine years of clinical experience. She helps adults who are dealing with anxiety, stress, trauma, and feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Darcy often includes clients' faith when that is important to them and wants therapy to reflect both evidence-based methods and personal beliefs.
In sessions she uses straightforward, practical techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and related approaches to teach specific skills for managing emotions and behaviors. Clients can expect clear steps to practice between sessions and focused work on problems that feel most urgent.
Darcy also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing when those fit a person’s goals. These tools offer ways to notice difficult feelings, get better at tolerating them, and make choices that align with values. She explains each method in plain terms and shows how it applies to daily life.
Her background emphasizes practical change over theory. Sessions center on learning concrete strategies for coping, improving communication, and handling cravings or mood swings. Darcy pays attention to family history, attachment patterns, and life transitions that can keep problems going.
People who come to her typically want focused, workable solutions for stress, relationships, substance concerns, or mood symptoms. She asks about goals up front and checks progress as therapy continues.
How online sessions use structured therapies
Darcy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior, test those thoughts, and practice new responses to reduce anxiety and low mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify values and take committed action even when strong emotions are present. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication for high-intensity feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Darcy will review your goals and preferences, explain the methods she uses, and suggest which tools to try first. The plan is collaborative so techniques can be adjusted as progress is tracked.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let someone choose audio-only or video if that better suits their needs. Licensed professionals help clients pick a setup that fits daily routines and goals.
