About Lucila
Lucila Coba is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 12 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, self-esteem, grief, and related concerns such as compassion fatigue and intimacy issues.
She approaches work in a straightforward, practical way. Sessions focus on the problem you bring and on small changes that add up. Lucila draws from several approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness methods to help people notice patterns and try new steps.
Her clinical background includes a mix of skills aimed at day-to-day coping. She helps people facing family problems, blended family challenges, communication difficulties, and the ripple effects of abandonment or family-of-origin wounds. She also supports those dealing with body image, aging and caregiver stress, and grief after separation or loss.
People who carry guilt or shame are within her stated focus areas. She works with forgiveness questions and the tension that comes from feeling responsible for past choices, listening for the beliefs that keep those feelings alive and testing them with practical exercises.
Lucila offers services in English and Spanish from Florida. To begin, clients follow the site process to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings appear. It can be useful for anxiety, guilt, and decisions about relationships or parenting.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions in a practical way. It uses exercises and behavioral experiments to test beliefs and reduce patterns that keep someone stuck. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention skills that make those exercises easier to notice and sustain.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and the specific issues they bring, adjusting as progress and challenges appear.
Session format details should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life - for example, shorter video or phone check-ins can be scheduled during a break, and sessions remove travel time so work or caregiving responsibilities are easier to manage. Ask about the session options available when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.
