About Ryan
Ryan Urzen is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 10 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, and challenges connected to career and life changes. He also addresses issues such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related struggles.
He takes a practical, conversation-based approach. Sessions often involve talking through what feels most pressing and experimenting with small changes between meetings. He uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside mindfulness and client-centered techniques.
Ryan pays attention to how past attachments influence current relationships. That perspective can help uncover patterns that affect communication and trust. He also brings experience supporting people affected by illness, caregiving strain, and military or first responder stress.
Sessions include work on communication skills, coping strategies, and managing symptoms like anxiety or low mood. He supports people dealing with major life events such as divorce, bereavement, or midlife transitions. Practical tools and goal-focused conversations are commonly used.
For someone juggling parenting strains, career pressures, or the aftermath of trauma, he offers clear steps to build resilience. He invites straightforward discussion about values, priorities, and next actions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
How sessions work
How his approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, life transitions, and finding direction after loss. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns shape current connections and communication, which can be useful for improving relationship dynamics and intimacy issues. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will help identify approaches that fit a person’s goals and preferences and adjust them over time. Sessions are collaborative and practical, with the client and therapist deciding together what to try next. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Many people choosing online sessions value the ability to schedule therapy around daily life and to keep appointments during busy weeks. Practical benefits include shorter check-ins when time is limited, the option to use audio-only when bandwidth is low, and fitting sessions into workday breaks without long commutes. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused tools to the online setting to support steady progress.Areas of focus
