Great to meet you!

I am a Christian licensed in Florida and Indiana with 21 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, motivation, self esteem, confidence, & bipolar disorder. I also have experience working with depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

My approach to therapy

Passionate about helping people heal from past trauma and process current traumas using a structured approach. I start off getting to know patients through a brief timeline which helps me get to know you better. Over the next several sessions we work together to build a self care plan. Self Care is a valuable tool and is one of the single tools that has helped my patients achieve their therapy goals. Self care plans are known to promote relaxation, reducing stress, improving mood, and enhancing overall well-being through activities like sleep, exercise, healthy eating, mindfulness, and setting boundaries. After the self care plan is built we will work on building a toolbox of coping skills that will allow you to deal with emotions that may be difficult to manage both at home and in the community.

What you can expect from me

My hope is that each patient will walk away from treatment knowing there is healing and peace available through Jesus and that they have a purpose in this life.

Practical tools:

Self Care Plan

Coping Skills

Better understanding of what triggers the emotions that are difficult to manage.
