There are times when life asks more of you than you feel like you have left to give. You may be managing anxiety that never seems to quiet down, feeling disconnected during depression, carrying constant stress, or struggling in relationships while still trying to show up for everyone who depends on you. Pregnancy, postpartum changes, motherhood, and other major life transitions can add another layer to that emotional weight. I provide virtual individual and family therapy for adults and older adults throughout Florida, with a focus on anxiety, depression, stress management, maternal mental health, and relationship issues. I also support clients navigating family concerns, trauma, identity and women’s issues, men’s mental health, and end-of-life concerns when they are part of the larger picture. With nine years of clinical experience across community mental health, child welfare, domestic violence services, substance use treatment, and maternal mental health programs, my goal is to create a warm, affirming space where you feel supported while building a healthier way forward.

I believe healing begins with understanding not only what you are feeling, but what your experiences, relationships, and responsibilities may have taught you to carry. Anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, maternal mental health concerns, or relationship difficulties may be what first brings you to therapy, while trauma, family dynamics, identity, or major transitions can add important context to those struggles. Rather than treating each concern as a separate problem, we’ll look at how they connect while keeping your priorities at the center of our work. I may use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and change patterns in thoughts and behaviors, Trauma-Focused CBT when difficult experiences continue affecting the present, and Psychodynamic Therapy to better understand deeper patterns that may be influencing how you respond today. I also draw from Narrative Therapy to explore the stories you carry about yourself, Strength-Based approaches to reconnect you with resilience you may be overlooking, and Psychoeducational Family Therapy when family relationships are an important part of the work.

You don’t have to arrive knowing exactly what needs to change. We can begin by understanding what feels hardest right now. During our first few sessions, we’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what has been happening in your life, what strengths and supports you already have, and what you hope will feel different. Together, we’ll create realistic goals and develop a plan that reflects your needs and pace. You can expect me to be warm, affirming, and empowering, while also helping you recognize patterns and develop practical ways to respond differently. Progress might mean feeling less overwhelmed by anxiety, reconnecting with yourself during depression, navigating pregnancy or motherhood with greater emotional support, managing stress more effectively, processing trauma, communicating more openly in relationships, or setting healthier boundaries with the people you care about. My hope is that therapy helps you feel supported in what you’re carrying while becoming more confident in your ability to care for yourself, too.
