As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida, I provide compassionate and solution-focused therapy to individuals across various life stages. With a Master's Degree in Counseling from St. Thomas University in Miami, Florida, and over 15 years of experience in psychology, I've developed expertise in addressing everyday stressors, anxiety, mood disorders, and life transitions. My therapeutic approach emphasizes collaboration, empathy, and evidence-based techniques tailored to each client's unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their concerns, identify strengths, and work towards lasting growth.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have worked with clients closely for the majority of my 15 years in the psychology field. I bring empathic and active listening, while also helping you stay accountable for yourself. You will be able to feel empowered in your ability to handle challenges.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I've worked extensively with different populations including but not limited to, adolescents, young adults, and older adults. I have been able to help them build resilience, develop coping strategies, and cultivate healthy self-care practices.
