I understand that "starting counseling" or finding a new therapist can seem overwhelming. That “exhausted-before-I-even-begin” feeling is why I believe so deeply in the efficacy of "telehealth" counseling. . With telehealth, you can tuck into whatever space allows you to feel most at ease. With your coffee or your dog nearby, you don't have to leave your world to talk about your world. My clients often tell me they come into therapy feeling nervous or overwhelmed and eventually find themselves feeling comfortable, understood, and even looking forward to our sessions. That matters to me.

I'll meet you where you are and we we can agree on your treatment goals based on what prompted you to seek therapy. We'll then focus on one issue (or more, related issues) at a time to promote your growth to the best version of yourself, over time.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Professional in the state of Florida with over six years of professional experience providing compassionate and client-centered mental health services. I have a passion for helping young adults and adults navigate life’s challenges and develop the skills needed to live healthier, more fulfilling lives. My areas of experience include helping clients cope with life stressors, anxiety, depression, anger management, relationship challenges, and other emotional difficulties that may impact their overall well-being. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to explore their concerns and work toward meaningful change. I believe that every individual has the ability to grow, heal, and move forward, even during difficult seasons of life. My approach focuses on meeting clients where they are, identifying their strengths, developing practical coping strategies, and supporting them as they work toward their personal and therapeutic goals. Throughout my years of professional practice, I have received numerous positive testimonials and feedback from clients who have successfully achieved their goals, overcome challenges, developed greater self-awareness, and experienced more fulfilling lives. These outcomes continue to strengthen my passion and commitment to the work I do. It is my privilege to walk alongside individuals during their journey toward emotional wellness, personal growth, and a more meaningful and fulfilled life.
