Dulce Merida is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who received her Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Palm Beach Atlantic University. For thirteen years, Dulce was a preschool teacher in addition to working in Youth Ministry at her church. Dulce fell in love with the world of counseling after she experienced the care and patience from a counselor she personally had in her early twenties. Dulce believes that counseling works best when the client and the counselor work alongside each other to help growth occur.

As a counselor, Dulce utilizes many different clinical theories and interventions when working with clients, including Narrative Therapy, Attachment Theory, and Internal Family Systems.
Dulce has experience in working with anxiety, depression, and trauma, among other clinical needs. Throughout her life, Dulce has worked in numerous settings that included working with children (ages 3-12) and teenagers (13-18).
