About Florcita
Florcita Hancock-Rios is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem, depression, relationship and family questions, and related issues such as grief and coping with life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep problems repeating and on building practical skills to manage emotions and behavior. She uses methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices to help people respond differently to old triggers.
Florcita pays attention to how family of origin issues and attachment experiences shape current relationships and choices. She also addresses adoption and foster care questions, blended family dynamics, fatherhood issues, and caregiver stress when relevant to the person in the room. Practical problem-solving and clearer communication are common goals.
She integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) tools to change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Mindfulness exercises are used to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. Client-centered elements keep the conversation focused on the person's priorities and pace.
People who come for work on mood, anxiety, ADHD-related struggles, or career and parenting pressures often leave with concrete steps they can try between sessions. Florcita accepts clients who speak English and she works with international clients as noted. To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's concerns and priorities, offering open conversation and support for people to make their own decisions. It helps when someone needs a calm, respectful space to talk through parenting stress, family patterns, or relationship questions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. Online CBT sessions can include setting small experiments, practicing new communication skills, and working on mood or anxiety management between appointments.
Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. It can be useful for managing anger, anxiety, or feeling overwhelmed by daily demands.
Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and will adjust the plan as needed in collaboration with the person seeking help.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break or meeting without travel. Ask about available formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire and set up your first session.
