Great to meet you!

I am a mental health professional with 13 years of experience, holding a BA in Sociology from CUNY Lehman College and an MSW from the University of Central Florida and I am currently a Doctoral Candidate at Barry University. My background includes individual therapy, crisis intervention, and long-term support. I also have experience in coaching athletics and teaching yoga, emphasizing holistic wellness. I’m passionate about promoting balanced lifestyles and offer a client-centered, empathetic approach to help you achieve your wellness goals.

My approach to therapy

As a practitioner trained in mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I integrate these techniques to support healing and personal growth.

Together, we can work on building resilience, self-awareness, and a sense of empowerment.

What you can expect from me

In our therapy sessions together, you can expect a compassionate, authentic, and non-judgmental space where you are truly seen and heard. My approach is deeply rooted in empathy and understanding, allowing us to work together from a place of mutual respect and trust.
