I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience working with clients in community mental health and private practice. In both, I have provided my client's with tools to overcome life challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, co-occurring disorders, along with self-esteem and relationship struggles. I have a passion for both education and counseling for purposeful healing. Together, my passions help my clients overcome past and present experiences and assist with their transformation into successful, empowered, and healthy individuals.

Our therapeutic relationship is built on trust and safety. My approach is client-centered and strength-based with a focus on the therapeutic alliance as the basis of change. I utilize an eclectic array of techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Therapy enables a person to achieve their greatest potential while identifying their strengths and areas of growth. Allow me to be a part of your journey as you push through discomfort and emotional pain while recognizing negative, self-defeating patterns to build self-awareness and a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fort Myers

Finding the right therapist in Fort Myers starts with getting clear on the type of support you're looking for. Therapists, counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists each bring different training and credentials. If you're looking for talk therapy to address anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or life transitions, a licensed therapist or counselor (such as an LMHC, LCSW, or LMFT) is a common starting point. If you may need medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can help.

With 8946 licensed providers practicing across Fort Myers and surrounding areas like Cape Coral, Bonita Springs, and Estero, narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider who specializes in a specific concern, someone who offers virtual sessions, or a therapist whose approach and background resonate with you. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you feel more confident about the fit.

Therapy in Fort Myers can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many people pay as low as $0 per visit. If keeping costs down is a priority, starting with your in-network options is one of the most straightforward ways to do it.
