*****At this time, I am only accepting new clients who want to meet every other week or once a month***** Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping individuals improve their mental health and gain a sense of well-being. Often times, we aren't living in the present. We're either stressed, depressed, anxious, too busy looking back on the past, or lost in thought with hopes for the future. This leaves us losing the ability to enjoy the present, and the present is what ends up creating our future, as well as creating the moments we will one day look back on. Together we will address the challenges you face, uncover your strengths, and cultivate new coping skills to help you be more present and navigate life's difficulties while gaining a greater ability to celebrate and appreciate life's successes. Through therapy, I aim to equip my clients with the necessary tools to regulate emotions, reduce anxiety, see other perspectives, and effectively cope with stress, ultimately enabling them to lead a more balanced life.

There are so many ideas that you’ve probably lived with growing up that don’t work for you anymore. Ways of doing things that make it hard to get things done, live in "survival mode", prioritize other people, or live the same day everyday. You've been expected to just move on from some hard times or hard losses. Or maybe you’ve always been "the “Perfect One”, the “Black Sheep” or the “Silent One” in your family. The struggles & labels that you've lived with may make it hard to truly know who YOU are... But I promise you, you don't have to live life with negative thoughts, numbness, or expectation. You deserve peace and mindfulness. I’m a licensed counselor in Florida.

I love to lend perspective and support to BIPoC, neurodiverse or ENM humans who feel stuck in old patterns or who have been told that counseling is only "para los locos". You should speak to a counselor who recognizes that your blood is rich with ancestry, heritage, triumphs and history. Also one that knows that you are more than just a role (i.e., parent, sibling or partner). We only have ONE life and so you deserve to make it an authentic one. Let's talk about how to live mindfully, no matter what you have survived.
