About Ossnat
Ossnat (Ossie) Tovia is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks English and Hebrew and approaches each person with respect and compassion. She frames therapy as a practical collaboration aimed at clearer thinking and steadier moods.
With 29 years of experience as an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ossie works to tailor conversations and plans to each person's needs. She helps clients struggling with focus, memory, and attention challenges often labeled as ADHD. She also addresses mood concerns, bipolar symptoms, and anger in calm, step-by-step work.
Ossie pays attention to relationship and family concerns, and she supports people facing parenting challenges and family problems. She also works with people navigating trauma and abuse, attachment and abandonment issues, and forgiveness. Her approach aims to make coping with life changes more manageable.
In sessions she blends practical skills with reflection. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and develop new habits. She layers in mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and build calm. Psychodynamic ideas help uncover patterns from the past that affect today's choices.
Ossie invites people to start with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on therapist availability. She frames the first meetings as a time to set clear, useful goals and to build a plan that fits daily life.
How Ossie’s approaches translate to online work
Many of her methods focus on practical skills and small changes you can use between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with clearer, more realistic ones; it suits anxiety, depression, and mood issues. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus; this can help stress and concentration challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. Early sessions are used to try techniques, get feedback, and adjust plans so the approach fits the client rather than forcing a single method.
If you plan to use online sessions, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Many people find virtual meetings easier to fit into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and make it simpler to continue therapy during life transitions. Talk with the therapist about scheduling that fits your routine and about homework or practice between sessions.
