Gwen Zorc, LMHC

Gwen Zorc is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida with 12 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people reduce anxiety and stress, improve relationships, and find practical ways to cope with life changes. Gwen uses straightforward tools to address low self-esteem, grief, addiction concerns, and ongoing mood problems so clients can begin moving forward.

Gwen draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with client-centered methods to tailor sessions to each person. She also uses EMDR for trauma work and brings in mindfulness, creative activities, and nature-based ideas when helpful. Her work blends problem-solving with skills practice and reflective conversation.

Her training includes a master’s degree from Florida Atlantic University and a bachelor’s degree from Barry University. To become licensed in Florida she completed over 2,000 hours of supervised post-graduate work. Gwen describes therapy as a collaborative process that connects clear goals to small, doable steps.

In sessions she often combines practical exercises with a 10-step wellness check to track daily habits and balance. She can help people address family-of-origin struggles, parenting stress, workplace burnout, and complex issues like bipolar disorder and ADHD by focusing on concrete coping skills and clearer communication.

Gwen aims to make starting therapy simple and manageable. She invites people who are ready to change small patterns and build toward a more purposeful life to begin taking the next step.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Gwen often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that improve day-to-day functioning. CBT is practical and works well over video or messaging because it relies on homework and brief skills practice.

She also draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening, understanding, and helping clients find their own solutions. That approach supports open conversation and can be effective whether working by phone or live chat.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Gwen will discuss goals, preferences, and which methods feel right, then adapt the plan as needs change. This is a collaborative process where methods can be mixed and adjusted over time.

Online sessions offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. Video calls let people connect face to face, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat works well for short check-ins or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still practicing the same therapeutic skills.
