I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides supportive, down to earth therapy for individuals and couples across Florida through telehealth. I help clients work through anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, and life transitions using a thoughtful, evidence based approach that’s tailored to your needs. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported as you gain clarity, confidence, and tools to move forward.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Your first session is a supportive and collaborative space to talk about what brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain. We will review important information such as confidentiality and consent, discuss your current concerns, and begin identifying goals for therapy. There is no pressure to share everything right away. You set the pace. This session is about understanding your needs and making sure therapy feels like a good fit. Many clients leave feeling relieved, clearer, and more confident about next steps.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
What stands out most about my approach is the balance between compassion, clarity, and practical change. Therapy with me is not just a place to talk. It is a space to understand patterns, build skills, and move forward with intention. I use an integrative, evidence based approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness based strategies, strengths focused work, and relational approaches. Sessions are tailored to you, your goals, your pace, and what will be most helpful in your real life. Clients often appreciate that I am warm, direct, and collaborative. I will support you, but I will not leave you stuck. I am insight driven and action oriented, helping you connect the why behind your experiences with practical tools for change. I focus on helping you build emotional awareness, confidence, and healthier boundaries. I am attentive to both present challenges and underlying patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Rather than simply managing symptoms, my goal is to help clients gain clarity, self trust, and lasting coping skills they can use long after therapy ends. Many clients report feeling more grounded, confident in their decisions, and better equipped to navigate stress, relationships, and life transitions. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I believe meaningful progress happens when clients feel safe, understood, and empowered. I aim to create a space where growth feels possible and change feels sustainable.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
We work best with individuals and couples who are ready to better understand themselves, navigate life transitions, and create meaningful, lasting change. Many of our clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained even though on the outside they may appear to be “doing fine.” You may be a good fit for our practice if you are: • Feeling anxious, stressed, or emotionally exhausted, especially from work, relationships, or life demands • Experiencing depression, low motivation, or a loss of direction • Navigating major life changes such as career shifts, school decisions, relationship changes, grief, or identity transitions • Struggling with decision making, people pleasing, or self doubt • Wanting to improve communication, emotional connection, or trust in your relationship • Seeking a safe space to process past experiences or unresolved emotions that continue to impact your present • Looking for therapy that is supportive, practical, and insight-driven, not just surface level conversations Our clients are often thoughtful, high-functioning individuals who are motivated for growth but need clarity, tools, and support to move forward with confidence. Whether your goal is emotional healing, improved relationships, stronger boundaries, or greater self awareness, we meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to be.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
In my work with clients, I use Solution-Focused Therapy to emphasize accountability and personal growth. Together, we focus on taking responsibility for our actions and emotions while identifying practical solutions to the challenges we face. This approach encourages clients to build on their strengths, develop new perspectives, and find effective ways to overcome similar issues in the future. It’s about moving forward with purpose and confidence, one solution at a time.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
In my work with clients, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thought patterns that impact emotions and behaviors. Together, we build awareness of how our thoughts influence how we feel and act, while taking accountability for making positive changes. This approach focuses on developing healthier coping strategies, managing difficult emotions, and learning practical tools to overcome challenges now and in the future.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
In my work with clients, I use a culturally sensitive approach that values each person’s unique background, beliefs, and lived experiences. I strive to create a safe, respectful space where culture, identity, and personal history are understood and honored. Together, we explore how these factors shape emotions, relationships, and perspectives, while working toward healing, self-awareness, and growth. This approach promotes accountability, understanding, and empowerment across all cultural experiences.
