Welcome! Creating a space where you feel safe, heard, and understood is the cornerstone of my clinical practice. I am Dr. Lyda HG. I am a National Board-Certified Counselor (NCC) and Licensed Professional Counselor to practice in Florida (LMHC). I obtained my PhD in Counseling at George Washington University and my master’s in clinical Mental Health at Villanova University.

I am a Catholic, bilingual, and bicultural clinical mental health counselor providing services in English and Spanish. I migrated to the United States 19 years ago as an international student. I bring a deep understanding of diverse lived experiences and the unique stressors related to acculturation and immigration. Also, I am an assistant professor, proudly teaching at the university level, to the next generation of master and doctoral students in Counseling.

I am dual-certified in Adult–Gerontology Primary Care and Psychiatric Mental Health, which means I care for both your physical and emotional well-being in one place. Many patients come in feeling like they’ve been passed around between providers—my goal is to simplify that experience and provide clear, coordinated, and comprehensive care.

I take a thoughtful, patient-centered approach to every visit. I listen closely, ask the right questions, and make sure you fully understand your health and your options. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition, navigating stress or anxiety, dealing with hormonal changes, or working toward weight and wellness goals, we will create a plan that is realistic, personalized, and sustainable.

Through my work at Meldic Health Clinic, I focus on building a space where patients feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. Your concerns are taken seriously, and your care is never rushed.
