Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Master level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) based in Florida. I received by Masters from the University of Central Florida. I have been practicing for over 20 years to help adolescents and adults deal effectively with problems and become the best versions of themselves. I look forward to helping you on your journey towards better mental health and functioning.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

We will start our first session with a brief introduction and obtain basic background information. Then we will discuss the specific challenges you want to work on. This will help me tailor a treatment plan for us to work on to improve your situation.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I practice what I preach and don't tell clients to do things I'm not willing to do myself. I have successfully dealt with issues like anxiety, depression, abuse and addiction myself. I use my knowledge and experience to help my clients.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I have extensive experience working with a variety of adolescent and adult clients deal with disorders such as anxiety, depression and addictions.
