Ana Budeguer is a Florida-licensed mental health professional with 17 years of experience supporting people through relationship challenges, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and life transitions. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), she combines evidence-informed methods with a compassionate, practical approach to help clients identify patterns, build coping skills, and move toward more satisfying relationships and greater emotional balance.

Born and raised in Argentina and living in the United States for over 20 years, she brings lived insight into the immigrant experience and extensive experience working with immigrant populations. This background informs her work with clients facing adjustment stress, immigration-related concerns, and the cultural complexities that often accompany major life changes.

Her clinical toolkit includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, somatic therapy, and trauma-focused approaches, which she uses to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. She addresses a wide range of issues including abandonment and attachment difficulties, body image, caregiver stress, communication problems, responses to natural or human-caused disasters, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and family dynamics.

Ana creates an open, nonjudgmental space where emotions and experiences can be explored safely. She emphasizes collaboration and empowerment, guiding clients through the initial steps of change and supporting them as they build resilience, clarify life purpose, and work toward more fulfilling relationships and daily functioning.
