Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. I earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Florida Gulf Coast University. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Sociology, as well as a Master of Public Health (MPH) with a concentration in Public Health Education from the University of South Florida.

My approach to therapy

I work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, stress, family conflict, relationship concerns, and other life experiences. I work from a collaborative, strength-based approach and utilize various therapeutic approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and person-centered therapy.

What you can expect from me

I strive to foster a safe space where clients can tell their story, gain insight into how their lived experience impacts them, and learn how to build on their existing strengths to live their best possible lives.
