I am licensed in Florida with 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, career difficulties, & depression. Whether you have a diagnosable condition or you just feel like you could be living better, happier, and/or more accordance with your values, I'm here to help. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. My education and professional background in both mental health counseling and behavior analysis gives me a unique and effective approach to counseling. My approach is to collaborate with clients and work as a team as we experiment with new strategies to address painful thoughts, feelings, and memories. As a therapist, I also work with clients to determine the life they want to lead and the person they want to be, and I assist in creating behavioral goals with clients to achieve these goals.
I love research and evidence based treatments especially about happiness and getting the most out of life. I hope we can work together to get you to a place where you are living more intentionally.
