Top therapists in Florida accepting new patients
I believe therapy should be a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable being honest about what you are experiencing, while also feeling supported and challenged to grow. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, emotional regulation difficulties, stress, and other challenges. I take a strengths-based approach and believe that you already possess many of the tools needed for change sometimes we just have to uncover them, strengthen them, and learn how to use them differently. I strive to make therapy relatable, meaningful, and practical so that what we discuss in session can make a difference in your everyday life.
I have a MA in Professional Psychology. I have worked in inpatient psychiatric, community mental health, and private practice settings in my career. I served on the board of the Florida Mental Health Counselors Association for 10 years and was President in 2015. I specialize in working with individuals, couples and families with adolescents. I am very direct and I like to get to the heart of the issues as quickly as possible. After all ,why should you stay in pain any longer than you absolutely have to? I'm also the author of the book "Structured Relationship Theory."
When life feels overwhelming and you’re tired of trying to “hold it all together” on your own, therapy can offer a place to pause, feel understood, and find a clearer way forward.

Areas of special interest and training include EMDR; post-traumatic stress disorder; trauma-based cognitive behavioral therapy; mood disorders and anxiety; and navigating life transitions.
