About Amada
Amada Tro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Florida with 30 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and sleep problems. She also addresses concerns such as parenting, grief, self-esteem, anger, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. She speaks English and Spanish.
Her practice centers on client-centered work. That means she treats the person, not just a list of symptoms. Sessions are based on the client's priorities and strengths. She aims to help people organize what matters most and make practical changes that fit daily life.
She commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns in thinking and behavior that keep problems going. Those tools can be useful for anxiety, panic, mood shifts, and sleeping difficulties. Mindfulness methods are added when slowing down, noticing sensations, or reducing rumination can help a person feel steadier.
Amada has three decades of experience across a range of concerns related to family and parenting, domestic violence, grief, and long-term mood disorders. That background gives her many perspectives on common household stresses and parenting strain. She often helps people talk through what to try next and how to make small, manageable changes at home.
To begin, she asks clients to describe the practical problems they want to address. From there she offers straightforward tools and check-ins to track progress. The approach is collaborative and paced to what each person can handle.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. Online sessions allow Amada to ask about what is most pressing and build goals around everyday life at home. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks concerns into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. In an online session she will use that structure to help a person notice unhelpful patterns and practice short experiments between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce rumination and improve sleep; these exercises are easy to try during a remote session and to repeat later.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then suggest practical methods to try. That collaboration helps decide whether to focus on thinking patterns, mindful awareness, or a mix of both.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions fit into a busy day better and make regular check-ins simpler. Online meetings can be helpful when someone needs shorter weekly check-ins, a daytime appointment during a break, or work on specific skills they can practice between sessions.
