Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Florida, Texas, and California specializing in complex clinical mental health. I work with adults navigating OCD, ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, and trauma. My approach is direct, solution-oriented, and open-minded. I tailor sessions to help you understand your neurodivergent brain, break cycles of overwhelm, and build concrete tools for sustainable change. Whether you are seeking structured executive functioning strategies or processing deep-seated trauma, we will work collaboratively in a supportive, judgment-free space.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy is a partnership where you are heard, validated, and equipped with a concrete toolkit. My approach is direct and solution-oriented, focusing on breaking toxic patterns and regulating the nervous system. For those navigating OCD, ADHD, or PTSD, I blend evidence-based strategies with a deep understanding of neurodivergence, moving beyond traditional talk therapy into active healing.

We will work together via a secure, user-friendly virtual platform designed to fit seamlessly into your life. My goal is to ensure you feel supported, empowered, and equipped with practical strategies every step of the way as you reclaim your power.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a dedicated 50-minute Deep Dive where we move past the surface and begin mapping out your path to clarity.

We won’t just talk about what is wrong. We will explore how OCD, ADHD, or trauma is specifically impacting your daily life. My goal is for you to leave this first hour feeling heard, validated, and equipped with at least one tangible tool or insight you can use immediately.

By the end of our time, we will have a clear Roadmap for our work together. No judgment and no confusing jargon, just a professional, trauma-informed plan to help you reclaim your power.
