Sometimes life becomes unmanageable on our own and we have to reach out for help. I am here to help normalize therapy and the discomfort that comes along with it.

I specialize in working with individuals suffering from chronic anxiety, depression, complex trauma, emotional dysregulation, identity issues, addiction, LGBTQ+ issues, and everyday life stressors that can be difficult to manage. I provide a holistic approach in my practice utilizing methods from multiple modalities that include helping regulate emotions, manage anxiety and panic, and learning to heal from past trauma.

I have experience working with mental health diagnosis and treatment In both outpatient and inpatient settings, substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, grief and loss and trauma disorder such as PTSD. A good therapist will not shame or blame you; will not try to become your parent or your buddy. They will cheer you on your journey and at times, help you see yourself in a new and different way. They will not do the work for you. They will help you keep accountable to yourself and the goals you create together in the work. They will encourage clear communication, authenticity, patience and compassion both for yourself and others. Accountability is a necessary part of any therapeutic relationship. I require at least 24 hours' notice prior to cancelling your scheduled appointment. Same day cancellations or no shows are subject to a Grow therapy fee of $50. Similarly, if I have to cancel within 24 hours' notice your next session will be free. The therapy process is engaged, dynamic and can be immensely satisfying.

Pompano Beach, FL - Accepting clients in FL

Painful experiences often lead us to build defenses to protect ourselves from overwhelming emotions. These defenses can take many forms perfectionism, escapism, anger toward loved ones, or becoming involved in unhealthy relationships. While they may offer temporary relief, they ultimately disconnect us from ourselves and others, often resulting in feelings of loneliness, shame, anxiety, and depression. I’m passionate about helping people strengthen their self-worth and process traumatic experiences that create harmful patterns and a sense of insecurity. I believe that although wounding often happens in relationships, healing also occurs through connection. With courage and a willingness to face uncomfortable truths, meaningful and lasting change is possible. Healing can happen—and there is always hope.

Relying on friends or family members is also helpful. However, you may not want to overwhelm them with problems. The most intelligent solution is seeking professional help.
