Virtual & in-person • 23 mi away • Mount Dora, FL


Is it difficult to find meaning to your life's struggles? Would you like to feel peace, love and harmony in your life? I believe that everyone can reach their potential to overcome personal obstacles that inhibit them from expressing themselves. I help people reach a sense of peace, purpose, direction and well-being. I foster the belief that everyone has something to offer and in their most difficult times can lead us to those special gifts that are within every one of us.

For your convenience I offer Tele-Therapy from anywhere across the state of Florida and in-person sessions at 1502 N. Donnelly St. St. 110 Mt. Dora, FL. I work with adults using CBT, EMDR, and Person Centered approaches. I help clients with trauma abuse, anxiety/depression, coping skills, and grief/loss.
