About Wanda
Wanda Kramer is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She draws on 11 years of experience to help people manage anxiety, depression, grief, and phobias among other concerns. Wanda talks in plain terms and focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions.
She trained in clinical mental health counseling after earning a Bachelor of Science in Gerontology. Her background studying aging and experience as a caregiver shaped how she notices life-stage issues and caregiver stress.
Background and approach
Wanda uses that perspective when someone is facing midlife changes, end-of-life questions, or the challenges of caring for others. Wanda blends several approaches to match each person's needs. She uses client-centered work to follow the person's pace, cognitive behavioral strategies to spot and change unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness to build moment-to-moment coping.
Motivational interviewing and narrative elements also appear when a client wants to clarify goals or reframe a difficult story. Sessions are straightforward and goal minded. Wanda often helps people break problems into small steps, practice skills in session, and try brief experiments between meetings.
She also supports people managing relationship issues, parenting strain, workplace stress, attention concerns, obsessive thoughts, and mood disorders. Wanda conducts work in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Costs vary with location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules based on the therapist's availability.
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following what matters most to the person. In online work this means the therapist reflects concerns and helps a person set the pace and topics for sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to spot unhelpful thoughts and change them through short exercises and experiments. It works well for anxiety, depression, phobias, and obsessive thinking and can be practiced during video or phone sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Wanda will collaborate with a person to choose methods that fit their goals and day-to-day life, adjusting techniques as needs change. The decision about which tools to use is based on symptoms, personal preferences, and what feels most helpful in early sessions.
Online formats make sessions easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a good option for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, tracking progress, or practicing short grounding exercises between meetings. These options provide flexibility while keeping the focus on concrete steps and real-world practice.
