Solangel Padron

My name is Dr. Solangel Padron, Ph.D., LMHC, BCBA. I am a licensed mental health counselor and board-certified behavior analyst dedicated to helping children, adolescents, adults, and families improve their quality of life through compassionate, evidence-based care. My journey into the behavioral health field began with a passion for supporting individuals facing emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges. Over the years, I have worked with diverse populations in home, school, community, and clinical settings, helping clients build skills, overcome obstacles, and achieve meaningful personal growth. I specialize in providing mental health counseling for concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, relationship difficulties, and behavioral concerns. I also have extensive experience supporting individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, and other developmental disabilities through Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services, parent training, and behavior support. My approach is client-centered, collaborative, and tailored to each individual's unique needs. Whether you are seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, my goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel heard, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to achieve lasting change. I offer services in both English and Spanish through telehealth across Florida and in-person services in the Gainesville area. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward improved mental health, personal growth, and overall well-being.
