Come, let me lead you on a journey of self-discovery! Your journey will be filled with possibilities and opportunities; I am unlike a therapists. Our discussions will be interactive by utilizing experiential wisdom and clinical practice. Expect more. I am a Doctor of Social Work and a scholar-practitioner with three social work degrees. I am an LCSW for Florida State and an LMSW for New York State. I recognize the ancient Buddhist teachings of Kathoey Culture. My greatest strength is helping people move beyond being stuck, feeling vulnerable and invisible to society. I have dedicated my professional life to serving others.

Get to know me

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

People should know that I have many years of lived experiences as a HB (human being). I empathize with people who are stuck in trauma or just in life. I work very well with people who feel lonely and isolated. Clients have said "You don't give homework but all I do after a session is process what we've talked about and want to learn more about me."

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths are empathy and communication. I have compassion and a nonjudgement presence for those individual diagnosed with gender dysphoria. Life does not happen without challenges, but through talk therapy; resilience, hope, and grit emerge.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Clinically, I am a humanistic therapist. I apply an eclectic approach to support clients, often drawing heavily on Person-Centered Theory. I am a Trauma-Informed clinician promoting safety, empowerment, and a healing culture. I am proud to work with the LGBTQ+ population and veterans. Through empowerment, clients find a connection with me.

Doctor Woolston has been an excellent resource in my journey away from anxiety. We have been meeting for the last three months and I can wholeheartedly recommend her.

Couldn't ask for more in a psychologist. Her approach is empathetic, caring, she listens, she provides great tools to help you be your best self. Just a few sessions have been life changing for be. Even after my first session, I had a whole new perspective. I've been to many therapists over my lifetime, and she is by far the best I've ever worked with.
