About Wanda
Wanda Kramer is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She brings 11 years of experience helping people work through stress, anxiety, grief, mood disorders, and relationship concerns. Wanda often meets with women across the lifespan and also sees male and adolescent clients.
Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and honest conversation. Wanda studied gerontology for her bachelor of science, which gave her a strong grounding in aging and life stages.
Background and approach
She later completed a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and earned licensure as an LMHC. Her background includes hands-on caregiving and protective case management, which shape her practical approach to problems like caregiver stress and hospice and end-of-life concerns. Her work combines Narrative Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) among other methods.
In practice she helps people tell their story differently, spot unhelpful thinking patterns, and use strengths they already have. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused rather than overly technical. Wanda often supports people with ADHD, bipolar disorder, depression, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and issues tied to life transitions.
She also addresses parenting strain, blended-family dynamics, money and career stress, and feelings of isolation or low self-esteem. Family of origin and communication problems are common topics in her work. Clients can expect practical tools, thoughtful listening, and collaborative planning.
Wanda adapts her approach to each person’s situation and helps them build steps they can try between sessions.

Online session options
How online sessions use narrative and practical therapies
Wanda often uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from their problems and rewrite unhelpful stories about who they are. This approach can be useful for issues like low self-esteem, life transitions, trauma, and relationship patterns.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people decide what matters most. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting, and supporting a person’s own goals and choices.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, targets thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems in place. It is practical and often includes small experiments or exercises to try between sessions for concerns such as anxiety, obsessive thinking, and mood symptoms.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Wanda collaborates with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so sessions stay relevant and useful.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is good for deeper conversation and reading nonverbal cues. Phone or chat can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Text messaging supports ongoing brief check-ins and reminders between sessions.
