About Diandra
Diandra Ortiz is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, trauma, addiction, and interpersonal struggles, and lists codependency among her focus areas. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
She uses practical, evidence-based tools in sessions. Diandra draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice painful feelings without getting stuck in them.
Her work includes support for social anxiety, mood disorders, relationship and communication problems, and struggles with self-esteem and identity. She also helps people coping with grief, life changes, and issues tied to substance or process addictions. Diandra aims to help clients build clearer boundaries and greater consistency in daily life.
In the room she focuses on concrete skills and small experiments you can try between meetings. That might mean practice setting limits, learning a distress tolerance skill from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or trying a different way to talk about needs with someone close to you. Sessions also explore past experiences when they are relevant to current patterns.
Diandra emphasizes culturally responsive care and works to respect each person's background and values.

Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How Diandra uses therapy approaches online
Diandra commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her clinical work. ACT focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate action, which can help with patterns like people-pleasing and avoidance. CBT focuses on identifying specific thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing clear, testable changes to those habits.She treats the choice of approach as collaborative. Early sessions are used to clarify what matters most to the client, what patterns they want to change, and which methods fit their goals and pace. Clients and Diandra check in together and adjust methods as progress or obstacles appear.
The practical benefits of meeting with a licensed professional online often include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into a busy life. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it simpler to try short skills check-ins, weekly talk sessions, or exercises that you can practice between meetings without requiring travel.
