About Neska
Neska Garcia is a licensed mental health counselor with ten years of professional experience. She practices in Florida and draws on a range of clinical approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, and depression. Neska keeps language simple and focuses on clear goals in sessions.
She uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their life stories and notice strengths they may have missed. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is another tool she uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.
Background and approach
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change when they feel stuck. Neska works with people affected by trauma and abuse, including sexual assault and post-traumatic stress. She also supports those struggling with panic attacks, anger, impulsivity, and attention challenges such as ADHD.
Her practice includes attention to multicultural concerns and issues common to young adults and women. In sessions she aims to be respectful and direct. Conversations are shaped around a client’s real needs and daily life.
She and the client set practical steps that can be tried between meetings. Neska tailors each plan to a person’s situation. She encourages small, steady changes and checks in on what works.
The approach is collaborative and paced to the client’s comfort level.

Online session options
How Narrative and CBT can work online
Online therapy lets Neska blend Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that fit everyday life. Narrative Therapy focuses on separating a person from their problems and retelling stories that highlight strengths and choices. It can help when someone feels stuck by a painful past or a single identity label. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking patterns and behavior. It helps people spot unhelpful thoughts, test new ideas, and practice small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Neska will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different techniques. Together they shape a plan that may use story work, thought records, behavioral experiments, or motivational questions as needed.
Online formats make fitting therapy into a busy life easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or an option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates, try brief coaching, or keep a running thread between meetings. These options support consistent progress while offering flexibility for daily schedules.
