Breanne Stanert, LMHC

Breanne Stanert is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She brings 14 years of clinical experience and a relaxed, collaborative style to sessions. Breanne focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, addiction, and issues related to self-esteem and life changes.

Her approach centers on building trust and working together as a team toward clear goals. She uses practical tools, often suggesting brief assignments between meetings so skills can be practiced in daily life. Sessions aim to be direct but compassionate, with an emphasis on good rapport and honest feedback.

Breanne has experience in substance use settings and family and couples work from earlier roles. She has also supported people facing PTSD, co-occurring disorders, gender dysphoria, ADHD, and grief. That background informs how she tailors strategies to each person’s situation.

She uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies inform short-term planning and behavior change. The mix of approaches is chosen to match the person’s needs and goals.

Breanne notes she typically waits until a consistent working relationship is established before writing documentation or letters, generally after several sessions. She balances professional work with family life and asks people to message with specific scheduling needs so she can make accommodations when possible.

How Breanne’s approaches work online and in sessions

Breanne uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy as core parts of her practice. Client-centered work means the therapist follows the person’s lead, listens deeply, and focuses on what matters most to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and helps people try different responses to reduce anxiety or change unhelpful habits.

She also draws on mindfulness techniques to help people notice thoughts and sensations without getting swept away by them. Mindfulness can be useful for stress, anxiety, trauma symptoms, and managing strong emotions in the moment. The therapist will discuss which methods to try and tailor the mix to a person’s goals and preferences in a collaborative way.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Breanne will help figure out which strategies fit best based on needs, goals, and what feels doable. That process may include short practice tasks between sessions and small behavior changes to test what helps most.
