About John
John Llauget is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor with 39 years of experience helping people facing stress and anxiety. He listens first to understand each person’s situation, then works with them to choose practical steps that fit their life. He uses plain language and steady support to help people feel more in control.
He trained in clinical psychology and completed an Educational Specialist degree, and he has a long history of work across settings.
Background and approach
His early career included hospital and outpatient work, school counseling, employee assistance programs, and university teaching. For the past two decades he focused on cancer counseling, supporting people coping with illness and the emotional strain it brings. John uses a client-centered way of working that starts with listening.
He also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. He applies EMDR for trauma-related memories and uses mindfulness and body-mind practices like qigong to reduce stress. Sessions are practical and paced to each person.
He prefers to talk through the problem clearly before suggesting tools, and then teaches coping strategies people can use between sessions. He emphasizes compassion, patience, and steady effort while people work toward change.
John has experience with a wide range of concerns including addictions, grief, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, career changes, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and caregiving stress. He welcomes conversational, goal-focused work.
Approaches that translate to online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding the person first and shaping the work around their needs. Online sessions let the therapist and client talk through problems, set goals, and adjust the plan as they learn more about what helps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses practical exercises to change thinking and behavior patterns that keep stress and anxiety active. In online sessions CBT often includes short behavioral experiments, thought-records, and homework that can be reviewed during video or messaging contacts.
EMDR is used to reduce the intensity of distressing memories by guiding attention while the person recalls them. When applied remotely this approach is adapted for the online setting and can help with trauma-related reactions and lingering distress from past events.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan over time. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools feel helpful and which to change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you use visual cues and hold deeper conversations. Phone sessions work well when internet bandwidth is limited or when a hands-free option is needed. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, skill practice, or stepping through exercises between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
