Hello! Sometimes making the decision to attend therapy is the most difficult decision. However, that doesn't mean that therapy will always be easy. When therapy is difficult, you often grow through those difficult experiences. Others would describe me as a "down to earth" type person and able to remain calm in stressful situations. I meet my clients where they are in life and help them stabilize their current situation before diving into other issues. No one is perfect, we all need help sometimes.

Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Rehabilitation Counselor based in Florida. I received my Master's degree in Counselor Education with a Concentration in Rehabilitation Counseling from Florida Atlantic University. I have been practicing for just over two years and my primary experience has been working with adults who live with substance use combined with mental health disorders. Prior to working as a therapist, I worked in behavioral health for various in/outpatient treatment centers. I have also recently began working with adolescents who are navigating behavioral issues.

My mission is to support clients to be the best person they can be by resolving their past, being mindful of the present, and hopeful for the future. I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy to help clients challenge their thoughts to reframe them in efforts of modifying the emotions and behaviors connected to those often negative thoughts and develop the needed coping skills to address future stressors.

The great poet Rumi wrote "out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." That field is a space where calm, love and forgiveness exist.

Mental health is similar to physical health which is part of our overall health. Mental health targets our brain health which drives us. I will be your guide to bring out the gifts you already possess. We do our best with what we know as a form of protection to survive.

I have found that describing myself had never been a skill I have mastered throughout my years of experience. It just feels awkward, so I embrace the awkward.

I name it so we can work with it in an authentic nonjudgemental manner. I always ask my clients to give therapy a chance and the therapist a chance as well. I say move on if by session three you are not "feeling it" with the therapist. It is okay if you don't like me as a therapist. This is your journey and I am your guide. The journey needs to be with someone who you connect with.

I know what it’s like to feel trapped by emotional pain. After losing my mom in 2005 I embarked on a journey through grief that made me the person I am today. The grief will stay with me forever, but I now have life lessons that I’ve learned because of it. I am here to help you.
