Dagmar Mirabal, LCSW

Dagmar Mirabal is a licensed clinical social worker who uses clear, practical methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas alongside a person-centered style to help people understand how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect.

She has 13 years of experience working with concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addiction, and compassion fatigue. Dagmar helps people break unhelpful patterns, set realistic goals, and make choices that match their values. Sessions focus on small, doable steps the client can try between meetings.

Her approach is collaborative. She creates space for people to talk without judgment and helps them name reactions and responses that feel stuck. Together they identify practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage strong emotions, and rebuild confidence.

Dagmar also brings elements of mindfulness and motivational interviewing into her work. Mindfulness skills are used to help people tolerate difficult feelings. Motivational interviewing supports people who want to change habits or address addictive behaviors.

She offers services in English and Spanish and practices in Florida. People who choose to work with her can expect straightforward conversation, concrete tools to practice, and a focus on what will feel achievable in daily life.

Using CBT and Person-Centered Work Online

Dagmar combines cognitive behavioral ideas with client-centered and mindfulness approaches to address thoughts, feelings, and behavior in practical ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and avoidance. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, understanding, and building a trusting working relationship so people feel heard and can clarify their goals. Mindfulness supports noticing strong emotions without immediately reacting and can help with stress, grief, and trauma-related symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try techniques together, and adjust what they do based on what helps. Collaboration means checking in about progress and shifting strategies when needed so work stays relevant and doable.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth or brief check-ins are needed. Live chat and messaging are useful for short updates, coaching-style feedback, or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to work on skills between sessions and to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
