Naomi Blake, LMHC

Naomi Blake is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, and parenting challenges. She uses practical approaches to help you notice unhelpful thinking and learn new ways to cope. Her style is collaborative and direct, with a focus on small, doable steps.

Naomi draws on 17 years of experience in mental health settings. She has worked in inpatient, residential, intensive outpatient, and outpatient programs. That background means she is familiar with both mental health and substance use concerns and how they often overlap.

Her main approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. She also uses attachment-based ideas to pay attention to relationship patterns. Client-centered care and mindfulness practices are part of how she helps people notice what matters most to them.

Sessions are focused on concrete skills and clearer communication. Naomi helps people build coping tools for panic, mood swings, and complicated grief. She also supports those managing caregiver stress, addiction recovery, or life changes like career shifts or illness.

Naomi values respect, non-judgment, and listening. She aims to create a practical plan together, tailored to each person's goals and daily life. She works in English and practices in Florida as an FL LMHC.

Practical approaches for online care

Naomi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thoughts that feed anxiety or low mood. CBT breaks problems into clear parts and teaches specific tools to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationship patterns affect feelings, trust, and intimacy and to help people build healthier connections. Client-Centered Therapy is another part of her work and focuses on listening, empathy, and working at the client’s pace so goals reflect what matters most to them.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Naomi will talk through options with each person, try practical techniques, and adjust methods based on progress, goals, and personal preferences. The aim is to find what actually helps in day-to-day life rather than sticking to one style.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skills practice, phone can fit short check-ins or lower bandwidth needs, and chat or messaging work for brief updates or when typing feels easier. These options help people fit therapy into busy routines and maintain continuity during life changes.
