About me

Hi! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in the sunshine state of Florida. I received my Masters from the University of Capella and have been practicing for 6 years. I help individuals navigate through life’s transitions so they can become the best version of themselves. My approach combines compassion, structure, and practical tools to create meaningful progress. I value creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel supported, understood, and empowered to grow. Whether you're experiencing challenges with communication, self-esteem, anxiety, or relationships, I am here to guide you toward lasting change and personal growth.

Get to know me

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

In our first session together, we’ll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you’re facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I strive to create a warm, genuine, and collaborative space where clients feel both supported and empowered. My approach integrates Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and strategic interventions to help clients better understand the stories they tell about themselves while developing practical tools for change. Rather than simply listening, I actively engage with clients by asking thoughtful questions, identifying patterns, and helping them discover strengths they may not recognize in themselves. I tailor treatment to each individual's unique needs and believe therapy should provide both meaningful insight and actionable strategies. My goal is for clients to leave each session feeling heard, understood, and equipped with something tangible they can apply to their lives between sessions.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My ideal client is someone who is ready to better understand themselves and create meaningful change, even if they aren't sure where to begin. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, family conflict, life transitions, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. They value a collaborative, supportive environment where they can feel heard without judgment while also being challenged to grow. Whether they're seeking healthier relationships, improved communication, greater emotional resilience, or a stronger sense of self, they're open to exploring new perspectives and building practical skills that create lasting change. I enjoy working with individuals who are motivated to move beyond simply managing problems and toward living more intentional, connected, and fulfilling lives.

My treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Unlike traditional forms of therapy that take time to analyze problems, pathology, and past life events, SFBT concentrates on finding solutions in the present and exploring one’s hope for the future in order to find a quick and pragmatic resolution of one’s problems. This method takes the approach that you know what you need to do to improve your own life and, with the appropriate coaching and questioning, are capable of finding the best solutions.

Narrative

Narrative therapy is a form of counseling that views people as separate from their problems and destructive behaviors. This allows clients to get some distance from the difficulty they face; this helps them to see how it might actually be helping or protecting them, more than it is hurting them. With this perspective, individuals feel more empowered to make changes in their thought patterns and behavior and “rewrite” their life story for a future that reflects who they really are, what they are capable of, and what their purpose is, separate from their problems.
