I currently specialize in the treatment of trauma across all age groups. Trauma affects the brain and the body, causing all sorts of problems for the individual, including (but not limited to) the following: Borderline Personality Disorder, loss of control, rage, anxiety, anger, depression, self-injurious behaviors, the inability to focus and concentrate, imagine and plan a future for themselves, trust others and form relationships.
I am a bilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida (MH 10876), a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania (PC003364) and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia (0701010754). I am also a National Certified Counselor (NCC 78353) and Certified as a Clinical Trauma Professional Level II: CCTP I & II: 742109.
The impact of trauma varies by individual. My goal is to help my clients find a path to growth and healing. I focus on interventions that guide clients to feel calm, safe and internally connected, which can help them tolerate the unbearable emotions they have been carrying inside and ultimately access the trauma beneath the surface.
