About Virgen

Virgen Garcia Figueroa helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, anger, low self-esteem, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and big life changes. She introduces a calm, practical way of working so conversations stay focused and useful. Virgen speaks English and Spanish and brings ten years of experience to sessions.

She holds an MD and is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. Her approach is warm and interactive.

Background and approach

She listens without rushing and asks reflective questions to help people notice patterns. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, with clear steps to try between meetings. Virgen uses several methods to guide work in sessions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the person’s goals at the center of the process.

She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to support change when motivation is mixed, and Narrative Therapy to reframe personal stories that hold people back. The mix depends on what the person wants to address. Virgen aims for straightforward plans that fit daily life.

She explains ideas in plain language and helps people try small steps that add up. If someone is ready to begin, she supports them through the first steps toward change.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful, nonjudgmental space. The therapist follows the person’s lead and helps them set goals that feel meaningful and achievable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches practical steps to change patterns that keep distress going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and handling crises with clearer thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Virgen will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and together decide which methods to try first. The process is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and use visual tools. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer flexibility for brief updates, coaching between sessions, or people who prefer typed conversation. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep momentum between meetings.
