About Darcy
Darcy Pare is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps adults handle anxiety, stress, trauma, and feeling emotionally overwhelmed. She combines practical therapy skills with clients' faith when they want beliefs included in sessions. Darcy aims for clear goals and steady steps so people can feel calmer and more capable in daily life.
Darcy draws on an array of approaches to shape sessions to each person. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify thinking patterns that keep problems going. Mindfulness practices and acceptance-based tools help people notice feelings without getting stuck in them. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to build emotional regulation and stronger coping habits.
Her work often focuses on parenting strains, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction and recovery challenges, and life transitions. She also supports people facing attention differences, mood conditions like bipolar, grief around adoption or abandonment, and stress from caregiving roles. Sessions emphasize small, doable changes that fit real life.
Darcy has nine years of clinical experience and practices in Florida. As an LMHC she works with adults seeking therapy that can include faith perspectives when requested. Sessions are conducted in English and are tailored to what each person needs and prefers.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability. Darcy aims to make therapy practical and focused on skills people can use between appointments.

How these approaches can shape online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and motivation struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting thinking patterns and behaviors that keep problems going, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Darcy will collaborate with each person to find which methods fit their needs, goals, and life circumstances. She will check in and adjust strategies as therapy progresses so the plan feels useful and realistic.
Confirm the current session options before booking to know how appointments are held. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins between other responsibilities. Some formats can also reduce camera time or use shorter visits when that better suits a person's day. Ask about available session arrangements when you complete the matching questionnaire.
