Bahtyah Benyahmeen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with six years of experience helping people find steadiness after difficult experiences. She focuses on trauma-informed, culturally responsive care and brings an affirming perspective to work with LGBTQ clients, families, children, adolescents, and adults navigating complex life or identity transitions. Bahtyah emphasizes a collaborative, skills-focused approach that honors each person’s nervous system and lived experience while building practical tools for everyday use.

Her clinical work integrates evidence-based methods including trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies, Motivational Interviewing, ACT-informed practices, and the Neurosequential Model of Therapy. She specializes in supporting children and adolescents with trauma histories or behavioral challenges that affect home, school, or legal situations, and she also works with high-functioning adults, professionals, executives, and first responders managing developmental or complex trauma, ADHD, anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, and executive-functioning concerns.

At the center of Bahtyah’s practice is helping clients develop a healthier relationship with themselves, including increasing self-compassion and practical self-regulation skills. She aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients are believed and never rushed, and she partners with each person to identify goals and build strategies that fit their life. Prospective clients are invited to reach out to explore whether her approach is a good match for their needs.
