Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Ormond Beach, FL

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. My approach combines evidence-based practices with genuine human connection to help clients navigate challenges, build resilience, and create meaningful change. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply seeking greater clarity, I provide a supportive environment where healing and growth can occur.

Clients should know that I’m down-to-earth, non-judgmental, and a genuine person. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be real—no masks, no pressure, no shame. I bring warmth and care into the room, along with a sense of humor when it’s helpful, because healing doesn’t always have to feel heavy to be meaningful.

I’m also solution-focused and collaborative. That means we’ll spend time understanding what’s going on, but we won’t get stuck there. We’ll work together to identify practical tools, coping strategies, and small, realistic steps that can help you feel better in your day-to-day life. Above all, I care deeply about meeting you where you are and supporting you in a way that feels respectful, empowering, and aligned with your goals.

Navigating a difficult relationship, struggling with a life transition, or just unsure how to proceed in making your life what you want it to be? I provide a supportive and totally non-judgmental environment for you to explore your options and figure out concrete ways to move forward.

I am a father, husband, brother, and son. I have experienced great highs and deep lows in this life. I am grateful to help others navigate their lives. I use my clinical experience, education, and personal experience (in that order) as a guide.

You might look like you have it together—but inside, your mind doesn’t slow down. You overthink conversations, second-guess decisions, and feel constant pressure to stay “on” at school, work, or in relationships. When things finally get quiet, your brain doesn’t—it gets louder. I work with adolescents and young adults who are tired of feeling stuck in that cycle. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but internally overwhelmed, anxious, or mentally exhausted. They don’t just want to “talk about feelings”—they want real tools that actually help.

Great to meet you!

I'm a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience in the mental health psychiatric field ranging from child and adult outpatient care to substance abuse treatment. I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Ohio University and Master of Science in Psychiatry from St, Thomas University in Miami, FL.

Therapy for all. High-Functioning Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, and Relationship Stress.

Are you struggling behind the smile you show to the world? Are handling your responsibilities, showing up for others, and getting things done, but internally dealing with overthinking, stress, frustration, or feeling stuck?

Do you feel pressured to figure things out alone, not talk about emotions, and keep pushing forward?

I work with those who are tired of overthinking everything, avoiding difficult conversations, anxious, depressed, or feeling like they’re not moving forward in life.

Many of my clients deal with anxiety, ADHD, relationship stress, or burnout, but it shows up as procrastination, anger, shutting down, irritability, isolation, or feeling mentally drained.

If that sounds familiar, you’re not the only one, and you don’t have to keep handling it the same way.

I primarily treat patients experiencing anxiety and depression, as well as conditions such as OCD, ADHD, and mood disorders. My approach is holistic, addressing the physiological, cognitive, and emotional aspects of mental health to support overall well-being.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing Practice from the University of Central Florida, I am committed to providing comprehensive, patient-centered care. I believe in treating the whole person—mind, body, and soul—and meeting each individual where they are in their journey.

Seeking support is a sign of strength—something we all need at times. Simply putting words to what you’ve been carrying can feel like a weight lifted. With an objective, supportive partner, you can gain clarity about where you are and where you want to go. When you’re ready, you’re welcome to reach out or schedule an appointment.

As a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I am dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care to individuals across the lifespan focusing majorly in adults. I bring a holistic and integrative approach to treatment—addressing both emotional and physical well-being
