Healing can feel like carrying a weight you've learned to live with, until it finally gets too heavy. I help adults, teens, and seniors in Florida work through anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, grief, and the stress of family or relationship conflict, so you can feel steady again instead of just getting by.

With 25 years as a licensed clinical social worker, I draw on CBT, EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy, tailored to what you're carrying, not a one size fits all script. I also understand how cultural background and physical health challenges shape mental health.
First session
Our first session is about getting to know you, what's bringing you in, and what you want things to look like six months. From there, we build a plan around your pace, whether that means processing trauma, easing anxiety and depression, or working through a hard season with family or a relationship. Most people leave sessions feeling lighter and steadier.
Strengths
In our work together, we'll use practical tools to help you see the thought patterns running the show with CBT, and when trauma is part of the picture, EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy help your mind and body finally process what happened instead of reliving it. I also draw on Solution Focused Therapy and strengths based approach.
