Justine Nyman, LMHC

Justine Nyman is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes common in midlife. She welcomes people who are struggling with substance use recovery, bipolar symptoms, relationship strain, grief, parenting stress, or questions about identity. Her tone is warm and nonjudgmental, and she focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions.

She has ten years of clinical experience and has worked in both group and individual counseling settings. Justine tailors her methods to each person's needs, drawing from cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, dialectical behavior approaches, and motivational interviewing. She aims to set clear, realistic goals and teach coping skills that fit into everyday routines.

In sessions she emphasizes acceptance, steady practice, and moving at a pace that feels manageable. The work often includes skill building for emotion regulation, communication practice, and strategies to reduce problematic habits. She supports people as they test new behaviors and notice what does or doesn’t help.

Justine also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, body image issues, chronic illness stress, and caregiver strain. She uses solution-focused tools when people want concrete steps and quick wins alongside longer-term therapeutic work.

Her approach is collaborative: she and the client check progress, adjust goals, and practice tools between meetings so changes carry into daily life.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while committing to behavior changes that align with personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches practical strategies to change patterns that cause distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive behaviors; it is useful when strong reactions or mood swings make daily life harder.

Finding the best approach is part of the process. Justine works collaboratively to choose methods that match each person's goals and preferences. She checks in about what is working and modifies plans so the therapy fits the person's life and pace.

If you prefer online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into busy schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time from a day. Online work can also make it simpler to practice skills in real-life settings and then discuss what happened during the next appointment.
