Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Brooksville, FL

You are too stressed. You wake up in the morning and wonder if you will have a better day. Things used to be much better, easier to cope. Are you going to make it through the day without the recurring depression and anxiety? Will she (he) get on your nerves again? Will this be another day to feel like a failure or loser?

You must do something to make it better. I have the proven methods to banish anxiety and depression and improve relationships. If this relates to you, you need to talk to me.

I work with women, parents, and families who are feeling overwhelmed—whether it’s parenting stress, relationship challenges, or struggles with substance use. Many of my clients come in feeling stuck or carrying more than they can manage alone. Therapy with me is a space where you can feel safe, seen, and heard as we build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and help you reconnect with your clarity and confidence. Clients describe me as supportive, honest, and easy to talk to.

I help individuals with PTSD or those that have been sexually abused or have experienced trauma feel relief.

Before becoming a counselor, I spent many years as an educator in both elementary and special education.

That experience shaped how I connect with people, meeting them where they are, listening deeply, and believing in their potential. I aim to bring that same commitment and compassion into every therapy session.

As a child, I had my share of challenges, but I’ve worked through them and never let them define me. I believe in growth, in strength, and in choosing to create the life you want to live. As a counselor, I strive to help my clients gain the power of self-understanding and realize their unique brilliance.

I strive to support people in becoming more of who they already are, not to change them, but to help them find their path with confidence and clarity. I provide direction while respecting your autonomy, always staying grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your life.

The therapeutic methods I use are informed by evidence-based practices; a strong respect for neurodiversity; and a deep understanding of anxiety, overwhelm, and what it takes to thrive in a fast-paced world. My professional path combines the best of both worlds – mental health and education – to support clients in a practical, informed, and deeply personal way.

I earned a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Education from St. Bonaventure University and Le Moyne College, followed by a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from St. Bonaventure. Through years of teaching, forensics, and private practice, I’ve learned that lasting change starts with understanding, and that’s precisely what I aim to offer every client I work with.
