Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida, specializing in providing compassionate and culturally competent care. As a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I have the privilege of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, helping them navigate the unique challenges they face. I am deeply passionate about supporting those struggling with their mental health, whether they're dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. I believe in a collaborative, client-centered approach where we work together to develop practical skills that empower clients to cope with life's obstacles and feel more in control of their well-being. My goal is to create a safe and open space where individuals can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment, and to equip them with tools they can use long after our sessions. Whether you're seeking support for personal growth or facing a specific challenge, I am here to guide you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery. I am committed to helping you build resilience, gain clarity, and lead a more fulfilling life.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
As a mental health support provider, I focus on creating a compassionate, non-judgmental, and understanding environment.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I specialize in the treatment of young adults and adults struggling with anxiety, interpersonal difficulties, relationship concerns, trauma, immigration and acculturation, and first generation college students. I primarily integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) depending on your needs.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive behavioral therapy is an opportunity to learn how thoughts influence feelings and behaviors. By doing so, it helps individuals identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, leading to improved mental well-being and coping skills.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy treatment that is designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. Incorporating EMDR helps individuals process disturbing memories, thoughts, and feelings, leading to relief from PTSD symptoms and other mental health disorders.

Katherine is always so welcoming and kind. I know that I am able to share things with her without judgment, and that has made this whole process of starting and continuing therapy so much easier and less daunting!
