HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS! That is the key!! With 25 years of experience, much research, studying, and face to face experience living and working all over the world, I realized relationships with yourself and with others can make or break our contentment in life! But there are skills to learn to make it happen, skills such as self-awareness, ability to pay attention to the world around us and our own bodies (mindfulness), learning to grieve and let go while embracing change, learning the characteristics of a healthy relationship with others and with ourselves, and accessing our strengths while focusing on the beauty in life. I'd love to walk with you through this process to restore hope.

When life feels overwhelming, our minds can convince us that we are alone in our daily challenges and during our most difficult times. We get used to handling it on our own. I believe there is a better way. Working with a psychotherapist who can deeply connect with where you are on your healing journey can be transformative. Transformation might look like addressing symptoms, resolving a problem, or seeking something more.

Are you feeling stuck, telling yourself that you are going to change, but somehow ending up doing exactly what you promised yourself you wouldn’t do? Do you convince yourself that you are going to move forward and then find that anxiety, hopelessness, harsh self-judgments, or a bad temper take control and push you backwards? Do you find yourself in relationship patterns that leave you feeling cut off from those you long to be close too? If this sounds familiar, you don't have to face this alone. There are reasons you feel this way, and you can discover what those reasons are and how you can change to live a more fulfilling life.
You may feel stuck because the way you are trying to solve your problems is by going back to the same strategies that got you stuck in the first place. It can be confusing seeing yourself stuck in thoughts and behaviors you know don’t work. Often this is because in the moment those strategies appear to be the only sensible choice, even when they aren’t.
If you choose to work with me, together we can explore the ins and outs of that confusion so that you can find your way out of it. Because that can often feel threatening and disorienting, I will be patient and give you the space and safety needed to do this work at your own pace. Be that fast or slow or in-between. I look forward to working with you.

I will like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as a licensed mental health therapist. I want to tell you a little about myself and my fieldwork experiences. I worked in this field for several years, along with various training, to assist clients in different areas. In the last several years, I worked in a mental health hospital with adolescents, substance abuse, and crisis intervention in various settings. People with trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia were some of the people I helped at work. I worked with individuals on career choices to increase their career paths to maximize success. I support individuals in their desire to become independent, and I do this by helping them identify their true potential.

Quail Heights, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Life is full of ups and downs, and if you’re here, you might be trying to find some stability. Whether you've been feeling stressed, wanting to expand your sense of wellbeing, or feeling like you've lost yourself in a relationship, I’m here to help you sort through it with compassion and honesty. I’m here to root for you, but I’ll also give it to you straight—because growth happens when we’re both kind and real with ourselves.
I specialize in working with adults in their 20s and 30s who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, or relationship issues. I also enjoy working with couples who are struggling to communicate effectively in their relationship. These are all areas I’ve worked through in my own life, so I bring not just clinical tools, but a deeper understanding of these experiences and the challenges they can present us with.
In our work together, we’ll focus on building self-awareness, challenging unhelpful patterns, and reconnecting with what matters most to you. I tailor our sessions to fit your needs using evidence-based approaches like mindfulness, CBT, and acceptance-based strategies.
Most of all, I want you to feel empowered to lead a life that feels more aligned to your values and who you are.

Please note: Currently, I only have daytime availability, as my evenings are fully booked. If you request a session, I may need to adjust our appointment time due to calendar syncing issues with Grow’s system. Thank you for your understanding!

I seek to work with clients who may be experiencing emotional challenges, life transitions, decreased motivation to face uncertainties. I aim to help, and work toward becoming a better self, build a safe therapeutic relationship where the ability to understand and manage uncomfortable emotions, feelings and behaviors strengthens, and allow for personal growth. I strongly believe, we can all benefit from therapy and having a safe place where we feel unjudged, and able to disclose what prevents us for achieving our goals.
