About Lugannys
Lugannys Soto helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, low self-esteem, grief, and major life changes. She also supports concerns around relationships, intimacy, parenting, career shifts, bipolar disorder, and depression. Lugannys is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with six years of experience.
Her approach is practical and interactive. She uses simple, conversational methods to help people talk through what matters to them. Sessions focus on small, achievable steps rather than long lectures.
How Lugannys works
Lugannys aims to build trust so clients feel heard and respected. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to shape each plan. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques are added when someone needs help clarifying goals or staying motivated.
The work often mixes awareness exercises with concrete behavior changes. In a session she listens first, then helps set clear, short-term goals. People leave with tools they can use between meetings, like practical coping strategies or thought-challenging exercises.
The tone is direct and encouraging rather than clinical. Lugannys works with common struggles such as process addictions, substance use, caregiver stress, chronic illness, codependency, commitment worries, communication problems, guilt, and loneliness. She tailors each plan to the person in front of her and adjusts methods to fit real-life demands.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is effective for anxiety, mood concerns, and coping skills. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience, using empathic listening to help them find their own solutions and build self-trust.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through your goals and preferences and together you will try methods that fit your needs. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is working and what is not, so treatment stays practical and focused on daily life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can fit into a busy schedule or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging make it easy to check in between appointments and handle brief problem-solving or reminders. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and other obligations.
