Welcome! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I received my Masters from the University of West Florida and have been practicing for 8 years. Since I graduated, I have been working with youth and adults facing a variety of emotional difficulties and distressing experiences. These painful symptoms and experiences can impact their ability to function and enjoy life, making it essential to seek support and guidance.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I have the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds who seek to make positive changes in their lives. I understand how important it is to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps toward change.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My approach to therapy is centered around creating a warm and friendly environment where you feel comfortable to open up and share your thoughts and feelings. I value collaboration and believe that you should always be a partner in your therapeutic journey.
