About Amada
Amada Tro is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with 30 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, low self-esteem, grief, parenting concerns, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.
Her approach begins from the idea that the client knows their own story. She uses that as the starting point and builds on existing strengths. In early sessions she listens, helps clarify immediate problems, and maps small steps that feel doable.
Amada often draws on client-centered methods to make space for a person’s perspective. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to look at thought patterns that keep problems going. Mindfulness techniques are used to help with stress, impulsivity, sleeping issues, and anger that shows up as quick reactions.
Over three decades she has worked with people dealing with mood disorders, ADHD, bipolar conditions, obsessive and compulsive symptoms, and the fallout from separation or sexual assault. She also addresses issues like compassion fatigue, isolation, and the strain of caring for aging relatives.
Practical work in sessions can include identifying triggers, trying short behavioral experiments, practicing grounding or breathing exercises, and refining ways to speak about needs in relationships. To start, users complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening to a person’s perspective and following what matters most to them. Online sessions can replicate that by making room for the client to describe goals and priorities while the therapist reflects and guides next steps.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with small behavior experiments. In online sessions this can mean setting simple at-home tasks, reviewing how they went, and revising plans together.
Mindfulness therapy teaches short practices to calm reactivity and improve sleep and focus. These techniques can be practiced together during a session and then repeated between meetings to manage stress and impulsive reactions. She treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, try methods, and adjust based on what fits the client’s goals, preferences, and daily routine.
The therapist’s original profile does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can use therapy during a break at work or between appointments.
