Alina Ghitea, LMFT

Alina Ghitea is an LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) practicing in Florida with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strains, grief, trauma and abuse, and related struggles such as low self-esteem and anger. Sessions are in English and she does not take international clients.

Alina draws on attachment-based ideas and emotion-focused methods to understand how relationships shape feelings. She also uses client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. In short sessions she aims to make emotional problems clearer and more manageable.

Her work often addresses family-related pressures like parenting challenges, family of origin issues, communication problems, adoption and foster care concerns, and fatherhood issues. She also focuses on mood-related concerns including bipolar symptoms, panic attacks, social anxiety, and coping with life changes.

Alina combines talk-based reflection with practical skills from CBT and DBT when needed. That can mean learning new ways to name feelings, practice brief behavioral experiments, or use specific coping skills between sessions. She frames these techniques as steps adults can use in daily life.

Clients can expect a straightforward, relational approach that blends listening with actionable strategies. She helps people sort through relationship patterns, manage emotional reactions, and make small changes that reduce stress and improve day-to-day functioning.
