About Zoila

Zoila (Mimi) Danta is a Florida LMHC with 39 years of experience working with adults and older adults. She offers help in English and Spanish and works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, self-esteem, depression, grief, parenting, anger, career issues, trauma and abuse, and bipolar disorder.

She has a long history of clinical and administrative roles. Mimi has run DUI education programs and provided individual and group therapy for people with substance use issues. She has also worked with foster care youth earlier in her career and served as a director of quality assurance for state and county programs to support service standards.

Mimi has led trainings for other therapists on topics such as ethics, treatment planning, group therapy, and assessments. She has worked as a domestic violence assessor and group facilitator and has direct experience with domestic violence and related issues in her practice.

Her stated approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. In sessions she uses practical, goal-oriented techniques and clear treatment plans that reflect each person’s situation and priorities.

Mimi emphasizes cultural awareness and respect in her work. She aims to listen, explain options, and help people practice specific skills to manage feelings and handle day-to-day problems. If someone wants to start, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit

Zoila uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize unhelpful thoughts and practice different behaviors. CBT can be useful for anger, anxiety, depression, and problems that respond to skill practice and clearer thinking.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which keeps the work forward-looking and practical. That approach concentrates on small, achievable changes and on what a person wants to do differently in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mimi will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust plans as needs change. This is a collaborative process that focuses on concrete steps and tracking progress.

Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during workday breaks. Some formats also use less bandwidth or do not require a camera, which can help when a shorter or simpler check-in is needed.
