Hi, I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida. I have been practicing for 3 years. I help older teens and young adults struggling with anxiety, OCD, depression, and life transitions.
During our initial session, the primary focus will be on getting to know each other. I will gather information, such as what has led you to seek counseling, your history, and your goals. It is all about creating a comfortable and safe environment where you can begin your healing journey.
My focus is on supporting young adults grappling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and OCD. One of my main focuses is ensuring you feel heard and understood. I strive to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where you can express yourselves openly and honestly. Recognizing each client's unique needs, I personalize treatment plans to address your specific challenges and goals.
I enjoy working with older teens and young adults who are adjusting to a new phase in life. My clients are motivated to enhance themselves and become a better version of who they are but often lack the tools to turn this aspiration into reality. Frequently, they find themselves feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious about the changes occurring in their lives.
Reality therapy emphasizes personal accountability, problem-solving, and making realistic plans to achieve one's goals. Reality therapy aims to help individuals develop effective coping mechanisms and improve their relationships by aligning their behavior with their desired outcomes.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a goal-oriented and time-limited therapeutic approach that centers on identifying and enhancing a client's strengths and solutions rather than dwelling on problems. I help you envision a future where your concerns are alleviated and work collaboratively to identify and amplify existing resources and successes. This approach emphasizes a pragmatic and positive perspective, aiming for rapid, practical solutions to achieve tangible and sustainable change in a relatively short period.
Schema Therapy focuses on identifying and modifying deep-seated patterns or "schemas" formed in childhood that influence an individual's thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Through a combination of cognitive, experiential, and behavioral techniques, Schema Therapy aims to address and transform these maladaptive patterns, fostering healthier coping mechanisms and promoting lasting emotional well-being.
