About me

I’m a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor, National Certified Counselor, Board Certified-TeleMental Health Provider, and harm reduction advocate. I have several years of clinical experience serving those who hold marginalized identities, such as the BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and TGNB communities. I use a blend of evidence-based, strength-based, race-based, and trauma-informed approaches and interventions to provide an affirming and anti-oppressive space that supports your growth and healing. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, & depression. 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. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

She’s awesome! Listens well, no judgement, offers perspective and asks questions that make you think deeply about things you’re going through and why. Would totally recommend!
