Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, and finding someone you genuinely feel comfortable talking to matters. My hope is that therapy can be a place where you can show up as yourself, talk openly about what’s going on, and know that you don’t have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door. I provide virtual therapy for adults throughout Florida, Ohio, and Indiana. My style is warm, conversational, and collaborative. I’m not the kind of therapist who just sits back and nods—I’m engaged, I ask questions, and we’ll talk things through together. We can laugh when things are funny, sit with the hard stuff when they’re not, and work toward changes that feel realistic for your life.
I’m an independently licensed therapist in Florida, Ohio, and Indiana, offering virtual therapy and accepting most major insurance.
I have a special interest in working with people navigating chronic illness, chronic pain, infertility, IVF, endometriosis, and other medical experiences. When your health becomes a big part of your life, it can affect your relationships, work, identity, and how you feel about yourself. Therapy can give you space to talk about all of it, not just the medical part. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, so I tailor our work to you. I draw from ACT, CBT, ERP, DBT skills, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, while keeping our sessions personal, practical, and focused on what matters to you. I’ve been a therapist for more than 11 years and genuinely love the work I do. If you think we might be a good fit, I’d love to work with you. You can schedule an appointment whenever you’re ready to get started.
First session
Starting therapy can feel a little intimidating, especially if you’re not sure what to expect. Our first session is really about getting to know each other and giving you space to share what brought you to therapy and what you’d like to work on. We’ll talk about your goals, answer any questions you have, and start figuring out together what will be most helpful for you. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say—we’ll take it from there together.
Strengths
I’m very engaged and conversational in sessions. I ask questions, offer feedback, and take the time to really get to know you. I’m warm and approachable, and I want therapy to feel like a genuine conversation rather than something overly formal or clinical. I also believe there’s room for humor and laughter, even when we’re talking about difficult things. We’ll work together to better understand what you’re going through and find ways to help you move forward.
Ideal clients
I work with adults navigating a wide range of life challenges, including infertility, IVF, chronic illness, and chronic pain. Many of the people I work with are also experiencing anxiety, OCD, mood or personality disorders, eating concerns, relationship or family challenges, anger, career transitions, or difficulty figuring out what comes next. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply unsure of your next step, therapy can be a place to talk openly about what you’re going through, better understand yourself, and find practical ways to move forward.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is an evidence-based, goal-oriented approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Together, we’ll develop practical coping strategies to improve emotional well-being and help you respond to life’s challenges with greater confidence.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
I strive to provide culturally responsive care that respects your unique background, values, identity, and lived experiences. Therapy is tailored to your individual needs in a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment.
Experiential Therapy
Experiential therapy helps you explore emotions through guided experiences that promote self-awareness, emotional healing, and personal growth. This approach can help uncover patterns that may be difficult to access through conversation alone.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness-based therapy teaches skills to help you stay present, manage stress, regulate emotions, and respond to challenges with greater awareness and self-compassion.
Exposure Response Prevention (ERP)
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is the gold-standard treatment for OCD. Together, we’ll gradually face fears while reducing compulsions, helping you build confidence and break the cycle of anxiety in a safe and supportive way.
