About Demetrius
Demetrius Jifunza is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. He also focuses on panic disorder and panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and phobia, and questions about life purpose and mood. The first step can feel hard, and he aims to make that step easier for anyone ready to begin.
He creates an open, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they are feeling and thinking. Sessions often begin with listening to immediate concerns and finding small, manageable goals for the coming weeks. He encourages honest talk about symptoms like panic attacks and anxiety so practical steps can be tried between meetings.
His approach draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s own perspective. He also uses narrative techniques to help people reframe difficult stories and solution-focused tools to set clear, achievable changes. When trauma is part of the picture, he incorporates trauma-focused practices to address its impact on daily life.
Demetrius brings three years of professional experience to his practice in Florida and holds the LMHC credential, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor. He works in English and does not take international clients at this time.

How his approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. In practice this means the therapist reflects what the client says, helps them name feelings, and supports choices that feel right for them. It suits issues like anxiety, stress, and worries about relationships.Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about their life and find alternative ways to frame problems. This approach can be useful for people coping with trauma, shame, or patterns that keep repeating. Solution-Focused Therapy aims for short-term, achievable changes by setting clear goals and trying small steps between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made or new concerns come up.
