Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Florida. I obtained my Masters Degree from Roberts Wesleyan College in Rochester, NY in 1998. I enjoy assisting others in redesigning their lives. My focus is on individual and couples counseling. Helping to bring positive changes to my client's lives is something I am motivated by, thankful for and excited to witness.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in helping adults heal from trauma, chronic stress, and long-standing survival patterns. Many of the people I work with grew up navigating environments where safety, emotional support, or stability were inconsistent, and those experiences can continue to affect relationships, self-worth, and the nervous system well into adulthood. My approach is compassionate, grounded, and practical. I integrate trauma-informed methods such as EMDR, somatic awareness, and nervous system regulation to help clients move beyond survival mode and reconnect with a stronger sense of self. Therapy with me is a collaborative process. Together we work at a pace that feels safe while building the insight, resilience, and self-trust needed for lasting change. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to understand yourself more deeply, therapy can be a powerful place to begin.

I believe everyone has the ability to find their strength and wellness. Sometimes it takes a little extra support to get you there and that is where I come in. With almost two decades of experience in the field, we will work together as a team to reach your goals. There is no timeframe to reach these goals and we will get there at your speed. I treat therapy like you are driving a car, you choose the direction and speed while I act as GPS and help guide the path.

I entered the field of social work 10+ years ago to advocate for and assist others in finding their voice. I quickly learned I was able to use my skills to help clients overcome obstacles and navigate broken systems. Over the course of my career, the need to address mental health disparities became apparent, as did the lack of available providers to do so. I became a licensed therapist to help clients live a life free of shame, one that is authentic without needing anyone else’s approval.

After overcoming some of my own personal struggles by utilizing therapy, I began my career in mental health with a deep passion for helping people find healing and purpose through some of life’s most difficult moments.

Are you a woman who is feeling down and have little interest or pleasure in doing things you normally do?

Welcome! I'm Cindy. Taking the step to explore therapy is an act of courage and self-care. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just curious about personal growth, therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and find strategies that actually work for you. Becoming a therapist came naturally. Growing up, I was the friend people turned to for a listening ear and nonjudgmental perspective. I loved helping others sort through their thoughts and feelings, always believing they are the experts of their own lives. That approach guides my work with every client. As a first-generation American born to Caribbean parents, I understand the unique pressures and strengths of the African diaspora. I’m passionate about destigmatizing mental health care, serving historically underserved communities, and helping people tap into their resilience to feel more confident and empowered. In our sessions, we’ll explore challenges like anxiety, depression, life transitions, or self-care struggles and build practical strategies that fit your life. I focus on helping clients set boundaries, communicate assertively, and reclaim a sense of control and purpose. Therapy is a space to reflect, grow, and create the life you want. If you’re ready to take that step, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Starting therapy can be overwhelming, whether for the first time ever or the first time in a while. Many of us have been shamed and dismissed for what we had to do to survive, even in therapy. My goal is to help you understand what your past taught you, and how you may be carrying these lessons in a way that no longer benefits you. This is not meant to "dwell in the darkness" but to reconnect with yourself and learn how you can begin to show up for yourself in ways that did not feel possible in the past.

Together we will establish goals and design a path towards a healthier way of being. I draw from a multitude of therapeutic techniques that include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solutions Focused Therapy. Clients who work with me have a desire to change. Whether facing everyday challenges that are holding them back from living a fulfilling life or struggling with family dynamics that have caused distress or trying to navigate through grief, my clients can learn to use their insight to find new ways of functioning that better serve what they want from this life. My clients can see a future for themselves that brings peace, happiness and healing. The first step towards seeking help is often the most difficult.
