Great to meet you!

Hi there! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and a Florida native. I received a Master of Social Work from the University of Central Florida. I've learned to roll with the punches and enjoy helping others not only survive, but thrive in adversity. I enjoy working with clients who are in a transitional phase in life. This could be a young person moving into adulthood, someone who finds themselves at the end of a relationship, career transition, or empty nester. Change is overwhelming and scary, but with the support of therapy, it can also be exciting to reinvent your life and become open to new possibilities and adventure.

My approach to therapy

I have experience working with individuals in crisis, the criminal justice system, addiction, and trauma. My specialties include CBT, Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing and EMDR. These are all just fancy names for ways I will help you learn to help yourself. We can work together to determine the best modality to reach your goals. You are unique, and we will craft a treatment plan that draws from your strengths, keeping you in the driver's seat.

What you can expect from me

I am an open-minded provider that has had experience with many challenging clients. I have a down to earth approach that provides a safe space for you to share your biggest fears & darkest moments judgement free. Let's work together on identifying your strengths and how you can put them to use.
