I have a BS degree in Health Science from San Jose State University and an MSW degree from the University of Southern California. Yes, I’m originally from California. I’m a licensed clinical social worker in both California and Florida. I was first licensed in 2003. For the first ten years of my practice, I worked with children, adolescents, and families.
I have over eight years of experience supporting individuals whose mental health is affected by health and medical issues. Finally, I’m trained in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP).
My practice is a safe, compassionate space where you can finally say the things you've never said out loud. I've spent 20+ years walking alongside adults through their hardest seasons. As your sole therapist, I'll know your story deeply and show up consistently - with warmth, honesty, and genuine care.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist who provides a sophisticated intellectual partnership for adults who feel internally chaotic despite external high-performance. My approach is designed for the intellectually curious—the high-achiever navigating "fraud" syndrome, complex trauma, or intense emotional volatility. I offer a high-fidelity space where we move beyond standard therapeutic scripts to name the underlying patterns you have been living in but could not quite see.

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right LGBTQIA-affirming therapist in Miami starts with identifying what you want to address in therapy. For some, that may be directly related to identity — like navigating coming out, processing minority stress, or working through family dynamics. For others, identity may not be the focus at all, but seeing a provider who understands LGBTQIA experiences can make it easier to talk openly about anxiety, depression, relationships, or other concerns.
When evaluating providers, look for a licensed therapist or psychiatrist who has specific training or experience in LGBTQIA-affirming care. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach, background, and whether they feel like a good match. A free phone consultation is another way to assess fit before committing to a session.
Therapy in Miami can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Whether you prefer virtual appointments or in-person sessions in neighborhoods like Wynwood, Coconut Grove, or downtown Miami, you can find LGBTQIA-affirming providers who accept your plan.
