Greetings! I am a licensed mental counselor in Florida with 30+ years of experience working in the mental health field. My goal is to empower and encourage individuals seeking emotional wellness to pursue their inner strength, happiness, and resolve with courage and embody the belief that TRANQUILITY AWAITS. I have 25+ years in addiction, specifically substance abuse. I am a Master's-Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP). In addition, I have extensive experience in crisis intervention, grief, and couples counseling.

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

I aim to empower and encourage individuals seeking emotional wellness to pursue their inner strength, resilience, and peace with courage and embody the belief that TRANQUILITY AWAITS.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

My primary treatment method is person-centered therapy because I believe every person is their greatest advocate. However, I rely on an integrative approach to help clients navigate this path utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and other scientific-based approaches as appropriate.

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

I have over 25+ years of experience in substance abuse treatment, anxiety, and depression psychotherapy.
