I’m an EMDR and trauma specialist helping adults with anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and emotional overwhelm feel more grounded, regulated, and in control. Maybe it’s anxiety that won’t ease up, trauma that keeps resurfacing in subtle ways, ADHD that makes life feel harder than it should, or burnout that leaves your nervous system constantly on alert. You may look like you’re holding everything together on the outside—while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, irritable, or exhausted on the inside. I help adults who feel overactivated, stressed, or emotionally overloaded finally get relief. I work with clients navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, chronic stress, and ADHD—the issues that keep your nervous system stuck in high-alert mode. Many of my clients are professionals, parents, athletes, or high achievers who’ve already tried talking through the problem but still feel reactive, drained, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to shift. If you’re tired of carrying everything alone, therapy can help you feel grounded, connected, and clear again. Flexible scheduling available—morning, midday, evening, and new Friday openings (11am–3pm) for clients using insurance. I frequently work with clients using Aetna, BCBS, and United and offer consistent availability for those seeking EMDR, trauma therapy, or anxiety treatment through their commercial benefits. As an EMDR-trained trauma therapist, I combine EMDR with CBT, ACT, and Transformational EMDR to help your brain and body process trauma, reduce anxiety, and release stuck emotional patterns. This work goes beyond symptom management—we address what’s underneath so you can feel more regulated, confident, and in control. Common issues I help with include anxiety, panic, overwhelm, ADHD, burnout, perfectionism, medical trauma, ACEs, chronic stress, performance anxiety, irritability, and shutdown patterns. Therapy with me is structured, supportive, and results-focused—built to create real, noticeable change.

I am a Christian therapist who feels that every adult person's spiritual beliefs are a strong factor for emotional healing. I am convinced that a life of hope, faith, and peace of mind awaits you. I want to help guide you to develop a clean pattern of life, a clean conscience, and self-confidence, which will remove the shadow of fear and guilt that seems to be hanging over you. Let me help you and together we will work on your development of the skills, for the successful and rewarding life that you have always desired. I received my MA in Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida. I have five years' experience. I did counseling at a housing center, with individuals experiencing interpersonal conflicts with members of their family. I also did counseling with the adult through Geriatrics population at a Community Mental Health Center.
