Find Your Counselor

When we go through difficult seasons, it is easy to feel alone and isolated. When bad things happen to us in the past, they tend to shadow our present; we feel trapped, as if we can never escape from our history. We may feel that we can never improve and that it's all hopeless. However, there is hope, there is healing, and there is wholeness. As your therapist, I fill the role of "empathic witness" by meeting you where you are and walking alongside you in your journey to wholeness. Based on my understanding of the mind-body connection, my professional philosophy involves working with you to explore how your body and brain influence your thoughts and emotions. Together, we can change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, manage overwhelming emotions, and promote calmness in both your body and mind. I value the therapist-client relationship because it is essential for fostering healthy change. I strive to help you feel safe, secure, and empowered in our sessions. I am particularly passionate about working with individuals who have a trauma background and are feeling stuck in their anxiety and depression. Together, we can help you regain control over your life.

I believe in the transformative power of therapy—where compassion, honesty, and shared human experience meet. Each session is an opportunity to honor my clients’ stories and walk alongside them in their growth. My work is strengths-based, helping clients reframe their narratives and recognize their resilience. Drawing mainly from person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, and reality therapy, I offer new perspectives, gentle challenges, and practical homework to support growth both inside and outside the session. I encourage open feedback and strive to create a safe, collaborative space where self-discovery and healing can unfold.

I am a compassionate counselor dedicated to supporting emotional well-being and fostering personal growth.

My approach focuses on creating a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported on their journey toward healing, self-discovery, and lasting positive change. Whether you're seeking guidance through a difficult time or looking to improve your overall well-being, I am here to help.

I believe one of the biggest challenges we face when navigating uncertain, difficult, or trying periods of life is finding the courage to reach out and ask for help. One of the most important aspects of effective therapy is the relationship with your counselor. My goal is to provide you with a safe, supportive, judgment-free space. I will meet you where you are, partner with you, and walk alongside you to achieve your goals. I am here to help you find hope and strength again. I look forward to working with you. I enjoy helping others navigate the challenges life brings, such as relationship issues, separation, parenthood, life transitions, sexuality, stress, anxiety, and depression. I believe all individuals have innate, unique strengths. I aim to partner with you to discover those strengths and help you thrive.

If you’re seeking change—whether it's breaking old patterns, managing overwhelming emotions, or creating a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling—you’re in the right place. I work with individuals motivated to grow and ready to move forward, even if they’re unsure where to start. My practice is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients understand and shift the patterns of thinking and behavior that may be keeping them stuck. In addition to CBT, I use an integrative approach that draws from various evidence-based practices tailored to each person’s unique needs. This allows us to address challenges not just cognitively, but also emotionally and holistically—supporting healing and growth on multiple levels. I meet each client where they are, offering a supportive and nonjudgmental space to explore what’s holding them back and what’s possible. Together, we’ll clarify your goals, develop tools for coping and healing, and uncover the direction and sense of purpose you’ve been searching for. My goal is to help you maximize your potential, gain insight, and move toward the wellness and wholeness you deserve.

I'm a licensed professional counselor who specializes in trauma/PTSD, depression, bipolar disorder, BPD, anxiety, and ADHD. Modalities I use include DBT, CBT, ACT, MI, IFS, EMDR, and narrative therapy. I love helping clients realize how resilient they are. I will meet you where you are and focus on the goals you identify—no judgment, no pushing you in a direction you don't feel comfortable with. You are the expert on yourself, and I am simply a guide to help you on your journey. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities in an eclectic style, adapting my approach based on what works best for you.

People come to therapy for different reasons, but I believe they all want to be seen, heard, and not judged for how they feel or think. I am dedicated to providing my clients the freedom to be themselves and guiding them in discovering who they aspire to be. I equip my clients with the necessary skills and empower them to choose and explore what works best for their personal lives and personalities, and ultimately help them to achieve their distinct goals. I have experience with adults who struggle with PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. I apply a mixture of person-centered, psychoeducation, CBT, strength-based, mindfulness, and psychodynamic therapy. My duty as a therapist is to help increase my clients' self-awareness, create healthier patterns, and gain healthy coping skills that they can utilize daily. I also use humor in sessions because laughing is also therapeutic! As someone familiar with experiences of abuse, homelessness, depression, and anxiety, I believe that anyone's difficult past can help them discover a better version of themselves for a higher purpose. Things happen for a reason, and people have the power to choose how their life experiences shape their lives moving forward. It will be an honor to walk with you.

I am a compassionate and experienced ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) dedicated to providing high-quality mental health care. With over 15 years of nursing experience, I have had the privilege of caring for diverse populations across Florida, gaining valuable expertise in understanding and addressing a wide range of mental health needs. Currently, I focus on delivering virtual psychiatric care to patients in both Florida and Colorado, helping individuals access the support they need from the comfort of their homes. My approach emphasizes creating individualized treatment plans tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals, always prioritizing a client-centered, empathetic approach to care. Whether working with those facing anxiety, depression, or other challenges, my mission is to empower patients to achieve improved mental well-being and a better quality of life.

We all need support—someone to listen to us with an open and nonjudgmental mind, someone to help us reorganize our thoughts when we are confused, undecided, or overwhelmed, and someone to cheer us on when we struggle without pushing us faster than we are ready to go. My goal is to provide you with the comfort necessary for introspection and healing and to search with you for any tools that may enrich your journey of self-discovery and fulfillment. As difficult as it is to take that first step into a counselor's office, I believe that seeking help when in need is the greatest act of love we can gift ourselves, as well as the clearest sign of strength and maturity. So, although the day we first meet will mark the beginning of our journey, it will not be the beginning of yours: you are already well on your way! I look forward to walking alongside you, wherever your path may lead.
