You might look like you’re holding it all together—but inside, it feels exhausting. Maybe you overthink everything, second-guess yourself, or need reassurance just to feel okay. You say “yes” when you want to say “no,” struggle with procrastination, and feel stuck comparing yourself to others—especially on social media. Deep down, there’s a sense of not feeling “enough.” You may also be carrying chronic anxiety, navigating the emotional toll of chronic illness, grieving a loss, or going through a life transition that’s left you feeling ungrounded. These patterns often come from early experiences—childhood wounds, relational trauma, or attachment injuries. When love or validation felt uncertain growing up, it can show up in adulthood as people-pleasing, low self-worth, and difficulty in relationships. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I help adults understand and gently shift these patterns. Using a blend of inner child healing, somatic work, and practical tools, we’ll work to build self-worth, process grief, navigate anxiety and life transitions, set boundaries without guilt, and help you feel more grounded and confident in yourself. Therapy with me is supportive, collaborative, and focused on lasting change. You don’t have to do this alone.

Hi! I'm a licensed counselor in Florida (LMHC), Texas (LPC-Supervisor), and Utah (LCMHC). With over a decade of experience, my journey in mental health began with a passion for helping individuals overcome life's challenges and achieve their fullest potential. Throughout my career, I have dedicated myself to continuous learning and professional development. I have specialized training in trauma-informed therapies, which allows me to provide compassionate and effective support to clients who have experienced trauma. Understanding the profound impact trauma can have on an individual's life, I am committed to creating a safe and nurturing environment where clients can explore their experiences and find healing. In addition to my work with individuals, I have a deep commitment to helping couples strengthen their relationships. I am trained in the Gottman Method, a research-based approach to couples therapy that focuses on building strong, healthy relationships. Using this method, I assist couples in navigating and healing from betrayals, enhancing their communication, and fostering a deeper connection. Witnessing couples transform their relationships and rediscover trust and intimacy is incredibly rewarding. Outside of my professional life, I am passionate about self-care and mindfulness. I often incorporate these practices into my therapy sessions, empowering clients to develop their own self-care routines. I believe that a holistic approach to mental health, which includes attention to physical, emotional, and mental well-being, is essential for achieving lasting positive change.
