Are you a parent noticing that your child has difficulty making friends, sitting still, or staying focused? They might also struggle with understanding personal space, handling conflicts, or regulating their emotions when upset. Is your teen grappling with low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, or challenges in forming their identity and managing relationships? Or maybe you are a young adult dealing with the stress of college and the complexities of independence. Now, imagine being able to face life's challenges with confidence each day. With the right support and strategies, healing and growth can become a reality. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in the state of FL. With 10 years of experience as a mental health therapist in hospitals, schools, and the community, I am dedicated to supporting children, teens, and young adults through their unique challenges. My practice provides a compassionate and safe space to address your concerns regarding poor coping or social skills, stress, life transitions, and anxiety or depression. Together, we can work through these hurdles and build the tools needed for a more fulfilling life.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In your first therapy session, my goal is to create a comfortable space where you or your child feel safe and understood. We'll begin with brief introductions and then discuss what brings you or your child to therapy. I am here to listen without any judgment, and you or your child can share your thoughts and feelings freely. I'll gain insight into your current circumstances and identify what has been effective or problematic in improving your well-being. As we talk, we’ll naturally start to build rapport and trust, creating a strong foundation for a supportive and helpful therapeutic relationship. By working together, we will create a personalized plan that adapts to you or your child’s progress, ensuring that sessions remain meaningful and effective.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Many people describe my style as being non-judgmental, friendly, patient, empathetic, and a good listener, with a calming presence that helps clients feel at ease during our sessions.
