Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based on Florida. I received by Masters from Barry University and have been in clinical practice for the past 7 years. I enjoy practicing Mindfulness and focusing on the small positives we experience every day. Building in ways to help be present, especially when life can get crazy is something I like to prioritize to help you find that peace!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I'll get to know you a little bit, then we will dive into the specifics of what brought you to reach out for help and any goals you have for session. I will try not to have you re-live any experiences that are uncomfortable, but sharing what brought you to session is really helpful in starting our journey together!
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with and practiced Mindfulness for the past 10 years, I am here to encourage and support you on your journey to being present in the moment and being accepting and open to what life gives us.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with clients of all ages and backgrounds who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed about their current stage in life. Through Mindfulness and CBT, we can focus on the present and be compassionate towards ourselves and others.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I've practiced Mindfulness for over 10 years and bring this approach into my practice as we are all inter-connected and should be purposeful in our actions.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is a structured, goal-focused type of talk therapy. It works well to help manage conditions, such as, anxiety, depression, and emotional concerns like grief or stress.
