Great to meet you!

As a licensed LCSW in Florida with over 20 years of professional work experience, I have experience in helping clients with coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I have worked with families, couples, and individuals. My focus within the last 7 years has been helping clients learn to adapt to challenging life experiences in healthy ways to promote and maintain their well-being.

My approach to therapy

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.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to experience a warm and safe environment to share your thoughts and feelings with no judgement. We will work together to identify goals you want to achieve and strategies you feel comfortable using to achieve them. I will strive to hear and understand you, while supporting, empowering, and encouraging you to explore the life you want to live.
