Hello!
About Me:
My name is Lissette Argenal and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I have around 7 years of experience providing mental health therapy. I graduated with a master’s degree in Science in Mental Health Counseling in 2015 in Miami, FL. I worked in a hospital in the psychiatric department providing therapy for Baker-Act patients and patients with medical problems for a year. I also have experience working with all ages and stages of human life, including mood disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, substance abuse, addictions, trauma, and relationship issues. I also offer emotional support and therapy if all you need is to process and express your feelings with someone with good listening skills focused on grieving, living alone, issues related to lifestyle, issues related to unspecified psychosocial circumstances or other counseling and consultation.
How May I help you today?
- Are you going through depression, anxiety, adjusting to a new environment, or phase of life problems?
- Can I help you to cope with mood disorders and/or substance abuse?
- Are you dealing with toxic relationships, dating relationship break-ups, past or recent loss?
- Is your goal to stop being addicted to social media or to lose weight but do you need emotional motivation?
We can schedule an appointment and start online therapy from the comfort of your home.

I provide a variety of treatment approaches based on evidence. Including CBT, DBT, REBT, BT, ACT, Schema Therapy, Transactional Analysis, PCT, Reality Therapy, Motivational interviewing, solution focus, Existential Therapy, Recreational Therapy, mindfulness, Trauma-informed Care, Narrative Therapy, Gottman Method, Imago Therapy. Some EMDR techniques as well.
Counseling Style:
My counseling style is very compassionate, genuine, empathetic, culturally sensitive, and creative. I have excellent listening skills, and I am nonjudgmental, I do not push my values on clients. I work with the patients in problem-solving skills.
I do not push my patients to talk if they do not feel it or if they are not ready to talk about something. I do not provide advice like a best friend. I am a professional mental health counselor and I do provide a humane, warmth empathetic understanding and can work with you on your treatment plan goals. I help you to heal your wounded mind and soul with evidence-based interventions, and we work together in session to create your treatment goals and develop steps to achieve them! I also provide recommendations and referrals in your therapy session if needed.
Positive results of attending counseling:
As a result, you will feel you are healing by venting your feelings and talking about your problems to solve them. Goals in therapy and healing are achieved on a case-by-case basis. Healing could take weeks, months, or years as the patient continues working and progressing in therapy.
Congratulations if you have already decided to go to therapy. You are brave and this is your time to thrive with positive, optimistic feelings and start healing your mind, body, and soul.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Thank you, Lissette!
Lissette is professional, calm, attentive and knowledgeable in our sessions. I am progressing in my goals with her guidance. It is a very positive experience.
I was a little skeptical getting back into therapy but she has been absolutely wonderful and very helpful with new techniques. I also feel like we get a lot accomplished in the sessions we have.
She listens so well and speaks so kindly. I appreciate her so much for helping me though my tough times.
Lisette is an an amazing therapist she answers your concerns . She is a great therapist and gives you bible verses to help you for that week
I still have a lot to work on, but I always feel better after talking with Lissette. She gives me a safe space to talk.
So far she has been nothing but helpful and insightful. She listens but also helps create goals that I believe I can accomplish. I’m forever grateful for her help. I appreciate her kind words so much.
Excelente terapista, muy atenta y profesional. Me ayudó muchísimo con mis problemas. Altamente recomendada
Lissette is the perfect mixture of professional and relatable. She is incredibly knowledgeable about tools and resources, and she guides patients through the healing process while equipping them to be empowered for dealing with life “on their own.” Lissette is also incredibly kind and creates a welcoming, comfortable, and safe environment that cultivates the trust and vulnerability needed to dive into personal issues and concerns.
Lissette is my second therapist. Her talks stick with me throughout the week and are very helpful.
She is an amazing listener and she pulls things from you without even knowing she is doing it. Very helpful in my current situation.
Lissette helps me find the best ways to cope and work through my issues quite rapidly, efficiently, and with compassion.
