Naomi Blake

Naomi Blake is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida who focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, and anger. She brings 17 years of counseling experience and a practical approach to helping people manage hard moments. Naomi aims to listen closely and help each person find steps that feel doable for them.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a main way of working, paying attention to how thoughts influence feelings and actions. Naomi also draws on attachment-based ideas and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and build different responses. Motivational Interviewing is part of her toolbox when substance use or motivation for change is a concern.

Her background includes work in inpatient, residential, intensive outpatient, and outpatient settings, and with people facing co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges. That range supports her in recognizing how life stress, relationship strains, and health issues can affect mood and behavior.

Naomi describes her style as client-centered and nonjudgmental. She focuses on practical skills and clear steps rather than only talking about problems. People can expect collaborative goal-setting and tools they can use between sessions.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master of Science in Counseling, and is a doctoral candidate. Naomi provides services in Florida and conducts sessions in English. To start, people follow the site's Start Therapy process and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships that shape how people respond to stress and anger. Online sessions can help identify those patterns and practice new ways of relating and regulating emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns. In virtual sessions, CBT often means setting small homework tasks and checking progress together. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which can be introduced and practiced during sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as new issues come up or as different skills are needed.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use written or video-based exercises between meetings, so skills practice can become part of everyday routines.
