Hi! I'm a licensed mental health counselor in both Florida and North Carolina. I'm the therapist that actually talks during sessions, who interacts, and works WITH you to find a path forward. I work with action-oriented, goal-directed folks who have an idea that something isn't working in their lives...but they just aren't sure what to do about it! Own your own business or live the entrepreneurial lifestyle? I work with YOU to keep business and personal life working in a way that makes sense. If you are ready to level up your thinking and productivity, you've come to the right place. Let's get started!

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

In our first session together we'll laugh at least once. That's my hope anyway. We'll spend the time getting to know each other in a relaxed, casual way that is more about curiosity on my part rather than cold, clinical examination. We'll talk about what you want to get out of therapy, how you see yourself being different as a result of therapy, and what your life looks life as a result. That's goal-setting we can hang our hat on!

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

My greatest strength as a provider is that I am not going to keep you in therapy forever, and I am going to be a straight shooter with you. I'm a no BS, no-nonsense professional who will call you out when you need it, tell you about yourself when you need to hear it. I won't candy-coat my comments. And. I do it in a way that is useful and beneficial. Most therapists want to give good therapy. I want RESULTS. Whether it's therapy for a reason or a season, I'm highly invested in helping you achieve your highest good. Bring your A-game and let's get started.

My treatment methods

Biofeedback

Biofeedback is connecting the brain and body for better mental health -- it's everything from apps on your phone to yoga and meditation. We'll explore some different modalities in order to find one that you like and can help you outside of our sessions.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is simply thinking about your thinking, let's not get too complicated!! We'll explore how your thoughts manifest from your feelings, and get them more under control. We'll reframe the negative thoughts and take you out of the rabbit holes of negativity. CBT for the win!

Psychoeducation

Psychoeducation is just a fancy word for "what does the research say." When it comes to understanding mental health conditions, a lot of times we look at the research to determine causes and effects. I point to the research often in my sessions, because the research matters when we look at treatment outcomes.

Reality Therapy

Reality therapy is all about choice and responsibility for your actions. When dealing with life challenges, reality therapy helps us move into action rather than worry, obsess, or ruminate over what "could be."

Integrative

Most every therapist is integrative to some degree, which just means that we use a variety of approaches when it comes to working with clients. I also do motivational interviewing, radical acceptance, mindfulness and parts theory in my practice, if it seems like these approaches would be helpful for you. We're all different so I like to take you up and down the buffet line to see what you respond to, best.
