Darlene Treese

Four decades of private practice and a career built across counseling, mediation, coaching, and organizational work give Darlene Treese a scope that few practitioners can match. An LMHC based in Orlando, Florida, Dr. Treese has worked alongside physicians and healthcare teams, led national professional associations, and brought her training into boardrooms and small businesses alike — always with the same conviction that change should be immediate, concrete, and lasting.

Her work draws on clinical hypnosis, solution-focused counseling, and structured mediation to help clients move past what’s holding them back. Teenagers and adults, professionals navigating burnout, and individuals struggling with anxiety, disordered eating, emotional abuse, or compulsive patterns — whether those show up as old habits or the relentless pull of a phone screen at midnight — find in Dr. Treese someone who comes prepared with a detailed, individualized Plan of Care from the very first session.

She is the author of two books, has produced and appeared on radio and television programs, and offers both in-person and online sessions. Her approach is the same regardless of format: assess the real problem, build a workable plan, and help each person reach their goals in the way that actually fits their life.
