Nakhary Esparragoza Bruce helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and struggles with parenting and family roles. She also supports clients dealing with trauma, anger, addictions, low self-esteem, and career or relationship concerns. Nakhary works in both English and Spanish and brings ten years of clinical experience to her work.
Her style is warm and practical. She focuses on clear steps people can try between sessions. Conversations are straightforward and aimed at small, manageable changes.
Background and approach
She uses evidence-informed tools to help with thinking patterns, behavior, and difficult emotions. Nakhary blends several approaches so the work fits the person. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and take action toward them. Motivational Interviewing supports shifts in motivation when making life changes. Clients can expect a collaborative process.
Nakhary listens first to understand immediate needs. Then she and the client set goals and try practical strategies. Progress is reviewed regularly and adjusted when needed.
She is licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor and as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida - LPC and LMHC. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. The approach is suited to people who want supportive, down-to-earth help with everyday pressures and specific life challenges.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches that translate well online
Nakhary often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts and shows practical ways to shift thinking and daily routines.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and taking values-based steps. ACT is helpful for worry, avoidance, and making steady progress despite difficult feelings.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Nakhary will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then tailor methods that fit. That collaborative process helps keep sessions relevant and focused on what the client wants to change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for richer conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone calls can work when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in fits a lunch break. Live chat and text messaging let people share quick updates or get support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try different ways of working until the best match is found.
