About Amada

Amada Tro, LMHC, LMFT, is licensed in Florida and has 30 years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, self-esteem, grief, parenting concerns, anger, mood disorders including bipolar and depression, and compassion fatigue. She practices in English and Spanish.

Amada uses client-centered work to build on a person's strengths. She listens for what matters to each person and focuses on practical steps they can try between sessions. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Mindfulness techniques are used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce overwhelm.

Sessions are described by her as collaborative. She treats people as the experts in their own lives and helps them apply their abilities to handle problems. The approach emphasizes clear goals and small changes that add up over time.

Her background includes three decades of professional practice in Florida. That experience shapes how she notices patterns related to mood, anxiety, trauma, and family stress. Amada draws on several therapeutic tools rather than a single method.

She encourages starting with a short matching questionnaire to find an initial fit. The first step is scheduling a session after the questionnaire. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy puts the persons goals first. In practice she listens, reflects what matters, and helps identify practical next steps that fit everyday life. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, respectful place to sort priorities and try small changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on specific thoughts and behaviors. Online sessions can break problems into manageable parts, use simple experiments, and track progress from week to week. This method often helps with anxiety, depression, panic, and insomnia by teaching concrete skills.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches awareness of the present moment. In video or phone work she guides short exercises people can use at home to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped in the past. Clients and the therapist decide collaboratively which methods to emphasize and adjust over time.

Confirm the current session options before booking. The platform questionnaire and scheduling flow are used to set an initial session. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions are more practical for everyday life.
