Compassionate LGBTQIA+ and trauma-focused care
Start with Aeron DeGroatLicensed · Professional · Cancel Anytime
Aeron DeGroat is a Florida-based therapist and a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL LMHC MH20571) with seven years of clinical experience.
She specializes in LGBTQIA+ concerns and trauma, particularly gender identity and transgender issues, and brings a strong focus to women’s issues such as body image and cultivating a healthy relationship with food. Aeron centers overall self-care and self-love in her work and aims to empower clients by offering encouragement while also holding them accountable and challenging unhelpful patterns.
In sessions she presents as her authentic self rather than a blank slate, believing it is essential to examine all factors that contribute to distress. Aeron addresses the impacts of racial and cultural influences, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, misogyny, generational and religious trauma, colonization, the current political climate, and late-stage capitalism on mental health. No topic is off limits, and she strives to provide a safe space to explore every facet of a person’s experience.
Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One of the main strengths of online care is convenience and flexibility - clients can connect in the format that feels most comfortable, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability can make it easier to integrate therapy into a busy life.
All therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they feel a different fit would be better. Online therapy offers an accessible way to pursue consistent support while tailoring the approach to individual needs.
