I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor in Florida with advanced training in Adlerian play therapy and sand tray therapy. I work with children, teens, and adults navigating life’s challenges and looking for meaningful change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on meaningful change. I help clients understand patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools so they can feel more confident and connected in their lives and relationships. My work is grounded in Adlerian psychology, with specialties in anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBTQIA+ concerns, identity exploration, neurodivergence, and sand tray therapy. I am passionate about creating a safe and supportive space where clients of all ages can explore, heal, and grow. I look forward to joining you on your journey of self-discovery.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and begin building a strong, comfortable foundation. I’ll ask questions to better understand what’s been going on for you and what you’re hoping will feel different through therapy. We’ll also talk through your goals, and I’ll share how I work so you know what to expect. My goal is for you to feel at ease, understood, and confident that we’re a good fit moving forward.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach blends advanced clinical training with genuine care and connection. I see therapy as a collaborative process and help clients understand their patterns while building practical tools for change. Clients often share that they feel truly seen, understood, and supported in our work together. I bring warmth and clarity into each session to help clients feel more confident and empowered in their lives.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with children, teens, and adults who feel overwhelmed or disconnected and are ready for something to change. Many are exploring identity, navigating relationships, or adjusting to new life circumstances, and want to better understand themselves while creating a stronger sense of stability and direction in their everyday lives and overall well-being. They are ready to look deeper and engage in meaningful, lasting change.

My treatment methods

Adlerian

Adlerian therapy focuses on understanding you in the context of your relationships and experiences. I use this approach to help you make sense of patterns, explore your values, and move toward meaningful, goal-directed change. Our work is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to who you are.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT helps us understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. Together, we identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck and develop more helpful ways of thinking and responding. I focus on making this practical and applicable so you can use these tools in your daily life.

Gender-affirming therapy

I provide a supportive, affirming space for you to explore and understand your identity. Our work centers on helping you feel validated and empowered as you navigate your experiences, relationships, and sense of self.

Trauma Informed Care

My work is grounded in a trauma-informed approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and collaboration. I move at your pace, remain mindful of triggers, and focus on helping you feel empowered and in control throughout the healing process.

Attachment-based

Attachment-based therapy looks at how your early relationships influence how you experience connection, trust, and closeness today. Together, we work to build a greater sense of safety, strengthen relationships, and create more secure ways of connecting.

She has been an incredible anchor for me through some of the hardest moments of my adulthood. She consistently reminds me of my strength, and her presence is reliably warm, grounded, and even humorous when I need it most. I feel truly seen and understood in our sessions, and her support has made a real difference in my life.

I am always super nervous to meet with a new therapist, as opening up about my past is something I struggle with. However, Dr. Mann has been kind, welcoming, and genuine. I can see that she truly does want her patients to get better and heal. Whenever we talk, I feel empowered and one step closer to where I want to be mentally.
