About Lugannys
Lugannys Soto is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with six years of experience. She works with common pressures people face in early adulthood, including stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, career worries, grief, addiction, and life changes. Lugannys also addresses issues such as self-esteem, anger, intimacy-related concerns, parenting, bipolar disorder, and depression.
Her style is interactive and collaborative. Sessions focus on practical problem-solving and building skills to manage feelings and behaviors. Conversations tend to be direct and respectful, with attention to what the client wants to change and realistic steps to get there.
Lugannys uses a mix of approaches to suit different situations. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Those methods are used to work on thoughts, behaviors, values, and motivation in concrete ways.
In session she helps people identify unhelpful patterns, practice new responses, and set short-term goals they can actually try between meetings. She will talk through coping strategies for stress, plans for reducing substance use, communication practice for relationship strain, and ways to manage mood shifts.
Sessions are offered in English and take place with her Florida LMHC credential. People should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking through the service's matching process.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and getting unstuck from avoidance patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, low mood, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lugannys will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the focus as progress is made and as priorities change during therapy.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when that better suits a work or study break. Talk with the clinician about what will fit into your routine and about practical details like session length and scheduling so therapy can be integrated into everyday life.
