Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) who can provide telehealth in Georgia. I received my Masters degree from Webster University and have practiced for over 10 years. As a therapist, I approach counseling believing that each individual is unique and deserving of support. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental, welcoming space where clients can make positive changes and restore wellness.

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

In our first session, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into your specific challenges. This will us create a individualized plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. In my therapeutic approach, I focus on helping clients gain a deeper understanding of themselves while providing unconditional positive regard. Together, we will set goals, explore thoughts, feelings, emotions, and behaviors, and work collaboratively toward achieving your desired outcomes.

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

Having worked in community mental health and private practice, I've developed a skill set for helping you (a) identify the origin cause of your challenges and (b) create a specific plan that leads to measurable progress. If you are seeking a therapist who values the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship and is committed to helping you navigate your unique life barriers, I would be honored to be a part of your journey toward healing and growth.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I specialize in working with adults, teenagers, and families, and I am dedicated to addressing a wide range of issues that can impact mental health, including neurodiversity, depression, PTSD, anxiety, addiction, maladaptive coping, communication, healthy boundaries, and parenting. By utilizing a variety of counseling theories and techniques, such as person-centered therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and play therapy techniques, I am able to provide personalized support to meet the specific needs of my clients.
