Beatriz Van Sky is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or challenges after trauma.

She works in a straightforward, respectful way. Sessions focus on helping people talk through what matters most and find small, practical steps to feel better. Beatriz aims to make the counseling room a place without judgment where thoughts and feelings can be shared safely.

Her background includes two decades of clinical work across a range of concerns. That experience includes supporting people with postpartum depression, panic attacks, mood disorders, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse. She also has experience with end-of-life and caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, and challenges that come with cancer and hospice caregiving.

Beatriz uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person. She helps clients build coping skills for panic and anxiety, process grief, and address unhealthy eating patterns. Her approach is collaborative and practical, aimed at everyday problems and goals.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Beatriz uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage trauma-related symptoms and emotional distress. One common approach focuses on building coping skills such as breathing, grounding, and emotion regulation to reduce panic and anxiety. These skills are practical and aimed at helping someone regain a sense of control during stressful moments.

Another approach emphasizes processing grief and trauma through guided conversation and paced reflection. This method helps people tell their story at a comfortable pace and find ways to move forward after loss or assault. Both approaches are rooted in proven practices and are adapted to each person's needs rather than applied the same way to everyone.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose techniques that fit the person's goals, history, and daily routine. That means adjusting methods over time and checking in about what is helping or needs to change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit appointments into busy schedules, avoid travel time, and use a shorter check-in when days are hectic. Ask about language options and scheduling to match sessions to your life and needs.
