MEET OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
VJOLCA CAPRI, LMHC, M.S., NBCC, QS

23 Years of Experience, An Innate Sense of Compassion, & Firmly Connected with Faith

I’ve been a Mental Health Professional helping my clients throughout the South and Central Florida areas learn and master the tools they need to enjoy successful and happy lives since 2003. Now, we are bringing our expertise to the entire state of Florida and Minnesota through our exclusive Telehealth Services.


The essence of my work with the Bismillah Institute is to incorporate the Islamic Model of Lifestyle into Proven Western Methods of Counseling Science in order to help you find inner Peace. By facilitating your self-discovery and self-growth, helping you develop negotiation and conflict resolution skills, and helping you identify the challenges culture and upbringing bring to the table, together we can devise a plan of action to help you weather storms in the future.
