Great to meet you!

I am a licensed psychotherapist with an extensive clinical background. I have provided services to children, adults, and older adults. I hold a license in mental health counseling in Florida. Furthermore, I received my graduate training at Barry University and Nova Southeastern University, with a focus on psychodynamic psychotherapy. Trauma, human sexuality, affective neuroscience, and evolutionary psychology are areas that interest him.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I consider myself to be a relationally psychoanalytic oriented psychotherapist. My approach combines tenets of drive theory, ego psychology, object relations, and self-psychology to provide support and feedback to the individuals I work with in an effort to help them navigate personal life challenges. I integrate specific methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized and tailored approach to each person I work with.

What you can expect from our first session

I strive for people to accept and better understand themselves and process their difficulties in a way that enables them to move forward, and not remain stuck in their lives. I hope to unlock the power in everyone I work with, to learn new and more effective ways to create positive change in their lives.

I am currently not accepting EAPs.
