Licensed to practice in Florida and accepts 38 insurances. Specializes in Couples Counseling, Family Conflict, Crisis Intervention
Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Florida. I received my Masters from Nova Southeastern University and have been practicing for 30+ years. I help adults develop lasting skills that empower them to navigate life's challenges with confidence. My approach is grounded in empathy and respect, empowering individuals to break through barriers, embrace change, and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.
In our first session together, we'll begin with a short introduction before exploring the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me to create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. During the session I utilize secure, privacy-compliant AI-assisted dictation technology to support the completion of clinical documentation. This allows me to remain fully present and attentive during sessions while maintaining accurate and timely records. If you are not comfortable with this, you may choose to seek services with a provider whose practices better align with your preferences.
Having worked with individuals, couples and families for the past 30+ years, my greatest strength is having navigated my own challenges, I bring a deeper sense of empathy to my work, along with effective, real-world strategies that have been proven successful.
I love working with adults who are motivated to understand themselves better, willing to work on their challenges, and proactive in learning new coping strategies or insights.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have extensive experience using CBT to help clients manage challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and stress. Together, we will explore the thoughts and beliefs that influence your emotions and behaviors. We will identify unhelpful thoughts and explore alternative, more balanced perspectives. This helps to reduce emotional distress and encourages more effective decision-making. My goal is always to help clients in developing lasting skills that empower them to navigate life's challenges with confidence.

Solid transparent and doesn’t sugar coat it. Reminds me of chatting with my grandma. No pressure

Very insightful and quick to make important steps in directions that we couldn’t see.

When searching for a provider, we did not want anyone whose experience was around or less than ten years. We also did not want a provider who looked younger than us and not necessarily as old as us. So, the 30 years' experience was a plus. To have a background rooted in faith was the biggest criteria. We believe we found a good fit!
