(she/her)
Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I received my Masters from the Florida State University and have been practicing for over 15 years. I help teens and adults struggling with stress, depression and anxiety to become the best versions of themselves. I have worked with diverse populations and have extensive experience working with adults, couples, groups, children and adolescents.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. I will need to explore some personal background and family history, because this will provide important information needed to understand the current issues that you are facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. You can expect empathetic listening and genuine concern, with the hope that these interactions will help establish a strong foundation of trust.
I have a wealth of experience working with diverse populations, including military, underserved populations, domestic violence victims and offenders, children and adolescents, LGBTQ, etc. My greatest strengths include empathy, active listening and a nonjudgmental approach. I draw on a range of therapeutic techniques tailored to individual needs, promoting personal growth and resilience. I work with clients to increase awareness of healthy boundaries and strengthen their ability to communicate and uphold those boundaries in interpersonal relationships.
I enjoy working with clients who are open to exploring their thoughts and feelings, seeking personal growth or navigating life’s transitions. This includes individuals with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or stress. I can also help those looking to enhance their self-awareness and coping strategies. I have extensive experience working with the military population, and I have helped many clients navigate the challenges, transitions and stressors that life throws at us.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilize CBT to help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings and behavior. When clients understand the negative thought patterns and beliefs that contribute to their problems, they are able to reframe these thoughts, replacing them with more balanced and realistic ones. By making positive behavioral changes and increasing healthy coping skills, my clients feel more empowered and less depressed, anxious or stressed.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Utilizing ACT, I help clients accept their thoughts and feelings without judgement so they can move forward through difficult emotions. We’ll work on changing your relationship with unhelpful and negative thoughts, so that these thoughts consume less of your time and energy. I believe that self-compassion is essential to emotional health and well-being, and we will work together to maximize your potential.

First session was wonderful, I felt lighter by the end of it. She was very caring and warm, listened thoroughly and asked questions that made me think of how I truly feel. Highly recommend.
