All of us spend moments in those spaces where we haven’t a clue. Experiences of spinning, overwhelming emotions. We’ve all been there. There is comfort in having a safe space to break down the chaos, a moment to breathe. A place of empathy where we are heard and able to experience acceptance. I want to support you on the journey to discovering the authentic and simple steps leading to your courageous self. You are capable, connected, deserving, and valuable. You are more powerful than you know. There’s surviving, there’s living, and there’s living beautifully. Let’s leap into your beautiful life.
Together we will identify working solutions to your present challenges to living the beautiful life you desire. We will collaborate on a personalized plan including options and strategic applications designed to achieve the leap in discovering the true you. You'll leave our session with a deepened understanding of self and available tools focused on an action-oriented approach.
I provide a warm and non-judgmental approach to therapy where my clients are understood. Advocacy, justice, fidelity, non-maleficence, and beneficence are sacred. Success is client-driven, while I provide a safe, supportive role allowing self-expansion. My approach is designed to assist clients in understanding their vast comfort zone.
I am a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor with experience treating substance use, trauma, anxiety, depression, and gender identity and transitional issues in a wide variety of settings including residential, intensive outpatient, and correctional facilities.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have five years experience using CBT to effectively treat anxiety, depression, PTSD, and stressful life situations. Together, we can work to help you become aware of thinking patterns creating issues affecting your quality of life. Exploration of the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behavior, can help you clearly view life's challenges and successfully tackle them in a healthy way.
Gender-affirming therapy
By providing a safe and supportive environment, we can openly explore gender identity, issues related to social transitioning, and address the anxiety and depression that often accompany the gender transition process. Together, we can help you embrace the freedom and self-acceptance of living as the true you.
Hypnotherapy
When combined with other therapies including CBT, the deep relaxation and focused concentration can help identify and use unconscious internal resources to change behaviors and address issues related to anxiety, depression, and trauma. You will have a present support with you the entire journey from a safe beginning to a successful end. You are empowered to create the script, and together we can mentally edit the track to propel you into the amazing adventure your life.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Stop, breathe, and observe the present moment. The cultivation of present-awareness combines the physical body and mind, allowing you to safely learn non-judgmental methods of self-directed meditation focused on emotional acceptance. I will support you along the way to an increased sense of self, reducing the distress created by anxiety, depression, and a wide range of issues affecting your quality of life.
EMDR
EMDR offers an adaptive information processing to treat the basis of current or eliminate disturbing symptoms, distressing emotions, and unwanted behaviors…while fostering positive new perspectives and increased resilience. EMDR therapy can help clients heal past wounds, eliminate current triggers, and prepare for future success.
