LCSW, 7 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida with a Master’s from the University of South Florida and seven years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families through trauma healing and relationship building. My background includes working with survivors of torture, human trafficking, abuse, and at-risk youth. I’m trained in evidence-based modalities including TF-CBT, PCIT, DBT, ART, CBT, and EMDR, and I'm passionate about creating a safe, empowering space for growth and healing.
I begin with an introductory session where you’ll have the space to share your story and discuss what you hope to gain from therapy. Together, we’ll explore your goals and begin to shape a path forward. My aim is to create a warm, welcoming environment where you feel safe, supported, and comfortable being open and vulnerable. From there, we’ll continue to work collaboratively in each session to bring your goals to life.
Having worked with children, adults, and families for the past seven years, I've developed goals and objectives for helping process trauma or find the root cause of your challenges and create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I love working with children, adolescents, adults, and families who are faced with the challenges that trauma leaves behind. The individuals and families that I work with are eager to heal, but yet have the tools to make healing a reality. They often feel stuck, angry, deep sadness, overwhelmed, lost, alone, and anxious when trauma occurs.
