What past clients have to say
Hi, I'm Sayra.
A Miami-based therapist offering in-person and virtual therapy across Florida, including South Florida cities like Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and surrounding areas. I provide individual therapy for adults navigating anxiety, divorce, relationship challenges, burnout, postpartum depression, parenting stress, and major life transitions.
I’ve been in the mental health field since 2007, beginning my career in New York City managing community mental health programs after earning my MSW from Barry University. Early in my work, I learned that people are far more resilient than they realize and often much harder on themselves than they need to be.
My own life experiences, including motherhood, single parenting, and navigating postpartum depression, deepened my understanding of how overwhelming and identity-shifting life transitions can be.
Today, I specialize in helping women and adults in Florida work through divorce recovery, anxiety, self-esteem challenges, burnout, and life transitions with a supportive, direct, and nonjudgmental approach. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in real-life strategies with space for humor, because healing doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time.
You deserve to be seen for who you’re becoming, not just what you’ve been through.
