Dr. Isibel Moreno , LMFT

Dr. Isibel Moreno brings a blend of clinical training, teaching experience, and personal insight to her work with individuals and families. Born in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic, she and her family migrated to the United States in 1995. She grew up with two siblings and later pursued studies that combined psychology, business, and professional counseling. Her academic path at Nova Southeastern University includes bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Business Administration earned in 2006, a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling completed in 2008, and a PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy awarded in 2019.

Her interest in training and educating other professionals evolved into a career that includes authorship and international presentations focused on heartbreak and how therapists can support clients through that experience. This background informs her clinical style, which treats life as a puzzle to be assembled piece by piece. She approaches therapy as a collaborative process - sitting alongside clients to help identify the next piece and figure out how it fits.

Dr. Moreno holds licensure as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist MT3514 and maintains professional roles such as AAMFT Approved Supervisor and AAMFT Clinical Fellow. She became a Florida State Approved Hypnotherapist in 2016 and is a member of IFTA since 2019. Her affiliations also include honorary and professional organizations dating from her academic years, including Alpha Phi Omega and Delta Kappa Omicron. Together, her clinical training, supervisory experience, and international work shape a practice focused on relationships, stress and anxiety, grief, trauma, family dynamics, and issues affecting LGBT clients.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Dr. Isibel Moreno

Dr. Moreno integrates client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where the client's perspective guides the work. This approach prioritizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so individuals can explore values, relationships, and life transitions at their own pace - it is often helpful for stress, relationship concerns, and self-esteem work.

She also uses hypnotherapy as a focused technique that combines guided relaxation and suggestion to help clients access personal resources and address patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Hypnotherapy can be useful for coping with anxiety, habit change, and some trauma-related symptoms when integrated into a broader treatment plan.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Moreno works collaboratively with clients to identify goals, assess what resonates, and tailor interventions to individual needs and preferences. That collaborative stance helps ensure therapy fits each person’s situation and evolves as goals change.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can take place by video call, over the phone, via live chat, or through text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules, time zones, and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact with licensed professionals and to continue progress despite life demands or geographic distance.
