Great to meet you!

Finding a LGBTQ+ competent therapist who has experience within the community can make a huge difference. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who works with LGBTQ+ individuals and family members navigating identity, relationships, gender transition, codependency, PTSD, depression and anxiety.

My approach to therapy

I have over 7 years of experience in clinical social work helping teens, adult and families struggling with addiction, conflict, identity, transitions as well as in crisis. I am licensed in FL and have had education in trauma-informed care.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a warm first session with the focus on allowing them the space to express their thoughts and feelings. Clients will be prompted to share their presenting problems and establish rapport with the therapist.
