Dr. Laura Fernandez, who often goes by Laura, is a licensed psychologist practicing in Florida and the owner of Mindful Freedom. She brings 14 years of clinical experience to her work and focuses on helping people navigate complex emotional and relational challenges.
She treats a broad range of concerns using evidence-based approaches, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and relationship difficulties. Her practice also addresses issues related to LGBT identity, family conflict, grief, intimacy, parenting, anger management, career difficulties, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She has particular experience in supporting people impacted by narcissistic abuse, post-traumatic stress, and borderline personality presentations.
Her typical client has often experienced trauma, struggles with self-esteem and boundary setting, has difficulty maintaining relationships or asserting themselves, or is seeking guidance around major life decisions. Many of her clients present with relationship or marital concerns, depression, anxiety and panic symptoms, low assertiveness, and boundary issues.
She is LGBT-affirming and has extensive experience working with minority communities, noting that she is a minority herself. She also speaks Spanish. Prospective clients who are ready to make a change are invited to reach out; Dr. Fernandez encourages taking a small step forward as it can lead to meaningful change. For questions or to learn more, she welcomes an email inquiry and looks forward to meeting new clients.
For many common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or major life transitions - therapy delivered online can be as effective as traditional in-person care. Research and clinical experience support its usefulness for these types of issues.
One major benefit of online therapy is convenience. Clients can choose the format that best fits their life and comfort level - video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or messaging - making it easier to maintain consistent care without rearranging a busy schedule.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch providers if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, the combination of evidence-based treatment and flexible access makes online therapy a practical and effective option on the path to improved mental health.
