Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with Doctor of Marriage and Family Therapy based in South Florida. I believe that the families and communities we grow up in shape nearly everything about who we become — how we love, how we cope, how we move through the world. My specialty is working with individuals navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, and the lasting effects of early experiences.

Get to know me

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

We'll start by getting acquainted — I want to hear your story in your own words. Together we'll identify what's bringing you in, what you've already tried, and what you're hoping life looks like on the other side of this work. No pressure, no agenda beyond understanding you. There is something powerful about being truly seen by your therapist. I offer that kind of recognition to clients who have spent too long feeling invisible.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Clients often tell me they felt at ease before the first session ended — and that matters deeply to me. I believe healing happens in relationship first, and technique second. I work hard to create a space where you don't have to earn the right to be honest, perform strength, or have it all figured out. You can simply show up. Whether you're carrying something heavy or just feeling stuck, I will meet you exactly where you are — with warmth, without judgment, and with genuine investment in where you're going.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best positioned to serve individuals and families who sense that something beneath the surface is driving their current struggles — and who are ready to explore it. I particularly enjoy working with adults navigating major life transitions, those untangling the roots of long-standing relational patterns, parents of young children seeking to break generational cycles, couples working to rebuild connection and communication, and professionals managing the quiet weight of burnout. I also have a deep commitment to caregivers who have spent years pouring into everyone else and are finally ready to pour into themselves. If you are someone who is self-aware enough to know something needs to shift but unsure where to begin, you are exactly who I do this work for.

My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

I don't start by cataloging everything that's broken. Instead, I ask: what's already working, even a little? Solution-focused therapy means we build from your existing strengths and the exceptions to your problems — the moments when things went better than expected — and use those as the blueprint for change.

Narrative

I believe you are not your problem — your problem is your problem. Narrative therapy invites us to separate who you are from the stories that have been written about you, or that you've been telling yourself for so long they feel like fact. Together we examine those stories, question where they came from, and begin writing ones that actually reflect who you are and who you want to become.

Interpersonal

So much of what brings us into therapy lives in the space between us and the people we love — the misunderstandings, the unspoken expectations, the grief of relationships that have changed or been lost. Interpersonal therapy keeps the focus right there, on your current relationships and the communication patterns that are either sustaining you or slowly draining you. When those relationships improve, everything else tends to shift too.

Couples Counseling

Couples don't usually come to therapy because they stopped loving each other. They come because they stopped feeling heard by each other — and the distance that creates can feel insurmountable. I work with couples to slow down the cycle, get underneath the conflict to what's actually being asked for, and rebuild the kind of communication that makes a relationship feel like a safe place again.
