Ana Budeguer

Ana Budeguer is a Florida LMHC with 17 years of professional experience who works with relationship issues, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and coping with life changes. She also lists life purpose among her focus areas and speaks English and Spanish. Ana was born in Argentina and has lived in the United States for more than 20 years, and she has experience working with immigrant populations.

She uses straightforward conversation and evidence-informed techniques to help people notice patterns that get in the way of what they want. Sessions mix talking about recent problems with looking at deeper feelings and past experiences that influence current choices. Ana draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to challenge unhelpful thoughts and on psychodynamic ideas to identify recurring patterns.

Somatic and trauma-focused methods are part of her practice when trauma or strong body-based responses are present. That can mean grounding exercises, mindful attention to bodily signals, and step-by-step approaches for processing distressing memories. She aims to match methods to each person’s needs over time rather than sticking to a single tool.

People who come to her often want concrete ways to handle relationship conflict, grief, or major life shifts. She also helps with attachment and abandonment concerns, infidelity, caregiver stress, immigration-related stress, and struggles with body image or isolation. Ana offers sessions in English and Spanish.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Ana’s approaches can work in remote sessions

Ana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and somatic-informed techniques in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with relationship conflict, mood shifts, and coping with life changes. Somatic approaches attend to bodily responses like tension or panic and use gentle exercises to regulate those reactions.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to notice recurring relational patterns that affect current choices. That approach looks at how past experiences shape present relationships and decision making. Together, these methods help address trauma responses, attachment concerns, and grief in a way that connects thoughts, feelings, and bodily signals.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to decide what to try first, adjust methods as goals change, and pick exercises that fit daily life. Sessions are adapted to each person’s needs and preferences rather than following a fixed template.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are used. Before booking, confirm the available formats and scheduling details. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits around work and family commitments.
