About Desirre
Desirre Smith is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with five years of clinical practice. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, career concerns, and major life changes. She speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
Desirre focuses on practical steps that fit everyday life. Sessions often include straightforward tools for managing stress and anxiety. She helps people notice thinking patterns and test small behavior changes to see what actually works.
Her approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with solution-focused methods. That means she helps set clear goals and breaks problems down into manageable pieces. Motivational interviewing is used to clarify what matters to the client and to support realistic next steps.
Mindfulness techniques are included to build simple attention and breathing practices. These are taught in short exercises that can be used during the day. The goal is to give clear skills people can use between sessions.
Desirre aims to work collaboratively on communication problems, life purpose questions, midlife transitions, and issues around self-love. She helps people plan concrete actions for work stress and relationship challenges. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
BHow sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions and how they help
Desirre commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors; this approach helps with anxiety, worry, and stress by focusing on practical changes. She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach short attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus during busy days. Motivational Interviewing is used to clarify personal goals and strengthen commitment to small, manageable steps toward change.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Desirre treats that choice as a collaboration. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, and then recommend ways to proceed that fit those needs.
