About Althea
Althea King is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 18 years of clinical experience. She works primarily with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, and depression. Sessions are conducted in English and the therapist does not accept international clients.
King focuses on the whole person, including faith, values, and life circumstances. She helps people talk through painful emotions like guilt, shame, and the need for forgiveness. She also supports practical problems such as communication difficulties and money or financial concerns.
Her work often addresses panic attacks, posttraumatic stress, attachment challenges, and mood instability. She helps people examine how family of origin issues and relationship patterns affect current struggles. She also supports those dealing with addiction and co-morbidity alongside mood concerns.
Althea uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions. Therapy is described as collaborative: she works with clients to set goals and choose approaches that fit their situation. Her sessions emphasize clear talk, emotional understanding, and concrete steps to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location. Prospective clients should confirm current session format options before booking.
King brings nearly two decades of practice to each case and frames treatment around practical needs and values rather than jargon. She aims to help people regain functioning, clarify purpose, and reduce distress through structured, person-centered work.

How evidence-based techniques shape online sessions
Althea uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety and depression. These approaches teach practical skills for coping with panic, low mood, and recurring negative thoughts.Trauma-focused strategies help people process distressing memories and reduce the intensity of trauma responses. These methods emphasize gradual exposure and reprocessing in ways that support emotional regulation and improved day-to-day function.
Finding the right approach is part of the early work. She will collaborate with each client to choose or adapt methods based on symptoms, life context, and personal preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted over time as goals and needs evolve.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks. Ask about session length, frequency, and the technical options available when you complete the matching questionnaire and arrange your first appointment.
