I have over 10+ years of clinical experience, working with individuals dealing with mental health concerns relating to anxiety, depression, relationship/family issues, life stressors, grief/loss, sport & performance issues, multicultural & identity concerns, and pregnancy/postpartum challenges. I am passionate about helping clients improve their overall well-being and helping them overcome personal obstacles by developing the knowledge and skills needed to create a healthier and happier life for themselves. I create a safe space with empathy and compassion through a client-centered and solution-focused lens. Rapport and therapeutic relationships are extremely important when serving clients, therefore I am committed to taking the time to make sure I am the right fit for you.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
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.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I currently offer virtual counseling services to adolescents and adults in the state of Florida. I also offer sports & performance services, working with individual athletes, teams and performing artists, focusing on the mental aspects of performance. I help athletes develop and use skills to optimize performance, enjoyment, and personal development in sports.
