Great to meet you!

I am excited to help you on your healing journey - the first step is sometimes the hardest. I am a South FL native with a big Italian family. In my free time, I enjoy being in the sun or by the pool, reading books with my cats, Marmalade and Maggie, and spending time with my friends.

My approach to therapy

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a DBT Intensively Trained Therapist through Behavioral Tech, the forefront of the international DBT training organization. I am a trauma-informed therapist and specialize in working with teens and adults. I also specialize in working with mood disorders, self-harm, trauma, and anxiety. I focus on individualized care by working with you to promote holistic healing and build resiliency.

What you can expect from me

I create a non-judgmental and safe environment that fosters authenticity as we work together. I believe that healing and resiliency come from within, and I work to empower people to find happiness and hope. I value authentic and genuine connections because I believe our most basic need is to connect with others. Through both expression and connection, we can create a better understanding of the self.
