About Ana
Ana Budeguer is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 17 years of experience. She helps people facing relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and major life changes. Ana speaks English and Spanish and draws on her own immigrant background to understand challenges tied to moving and starting over.
She aims to make sessions straightforward and grounded. Conversations focus on what’s happening now and what the client wants to change. Ana encourages people to name feelings, try small shifts in behavior, and notice how the body holds stress.
Her work blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic ideas, and somatic perspectives. That means she looks at thoughts and patterns, explores how past relationships shape current reactions, and pays attention to bodily responses to stress. When trauma is involved she uses trauma-focused approaches to guide sensible pacing and stabilization.
Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space to talk through painful events and confusing choices. Ana emphasizes practical steps people can try between sessions. She supports caregivers dealing with stress, people coping with separation or divorce, and those managing the fallout of immigration and isolation.
People describe starting therapy as a series of small decisions. Ana helps set clear, achievable goals and adjusts the work as needs shift. Her approach aims to restore a sense of agency and help people find steadier ground after disruption.
Approaches that guide online therapy conversations
Psychodynamic work pays attention to how past relationships shape present reactions. It helps people spot repeated patterns and understand where strong feelings come from.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical changes in thinking and behavior. It helps people test unhelpful thoughts, try new actions, and measure what improves.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That conversation guides whether more CBT, psychodynamic exploration, or somatic grounding is emphasized.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people choose a quieter setting or avoid being on camera when that feels better. Licensed professionals can adapt pacing and exercises so the work fits into everyday life without requiring extra time away from responsibilities.
