Hello. I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and have experience working with diverse populations, including Hispanic-Latino communities, Medicare patients, and seniors.

I have worked in the mental health field and have helped many clients. My career path spans over 25 years and includes working in various positions. I was a Lifeguard Lieutenant for Miami Dade Ocean Rescue, a Middle School Guidance Counselor, Mental Health Counselor for the Broward Detention Center and two local hospitals - Ft.

Are you tired of feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or doom-scrolling to cope? If so, maybe it's time we work together.

I help my clients heal childhood trauma wounds and learn how to turn their love inward. My goal is to be your consistent 'safe space' as you explore your thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

As a counselor, I believe that healing begins with understanding — both of ourselves and of the patterns that shape how we live, think, and feel. My approach is person-centered, strength-based, and compassionate. I deeply believe in meeting clients where they are, and I honor the pace at which each person is ready to move. Growth takes time, and every step forward is meaningful. I hold the belief that we each already carry the strength, wisdom, and resilience we need within us — sometimes we just need help uncovering it. By gently shifting away from unhelpful patterns and learning to embrace more empowering ways of thinking and being, we make room for courage, clarity, and transformation. Most importantly, I want clients to know that this deep and necessary inner work doesn't have to be done alone. As a counselor, my goal is to walk alongside you — with honesty, care, and encouragement — as you navigate life’s challenges and rediscover what’s possible for you.

I believe that therapy should feel like a real conversation where you can breathe, think, and be real, not a clinical checklist.

Underneath, they feel overwhelmed, anxious, numb, or disconnected from who they used to be. I help create a space where you can take those masks off without fear. You don't have to know the right words. You don't have to have everything figured out. You just have to show up as you are. Together, we'll work through what you're carrying and build tools that feel realistic and fit your real life. If you're tired of pretending and ready for a space where you can just be real, I'd love to support you.

They will encourage clear communication, authenticity, patience and compassion both for yourself and others. Accountability is a necessary part of any therapeutic relationship.
