Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Lucnise “Lulu” Metellus! I’m a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a master’s degree in counseling and a background in healthcare. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and other life stressors. As a Haitian-American therapist, I understand how culture, family, and personal experiences can shape our mental health. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself.

My approach to therapy

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel supported while also gaining tools to navigate life’s challenges. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed care to tailor our work to your unique needs. I value honest conversations, meaningful connections, and even a little humor when appropriate. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and develop strategies that support lasting growth.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is all about getting to know you! We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what you’ve been experiencing, and what you’d like to work toward. There’s no pressure to share everything at once. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I’ll ask questions, listen to your experiences, and work with you to identify goals that feel meaningful and achievable. My priority is helping you feel safe, supported, and confident as we begin this journey together.
