I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Florida with over 20 years working in the field of social work and 12 years of experience working as a therapist. I am Certified in Biblical Counseling and predominately focus my work on scripture and faith-based modalities.
I have worked with many populations to include children struggling with attachment, grief, and sensory dysregulation; adolescents struggling with emotional regulation, executive functioning, and peer relationships; adults experiencing domestic violence, trauma, anxiety, or addictions; and active duty military struggling with the realities of deployment and reintegration. I have worked in inpatient settings, outpatient settings, forensic/court systems, and in community development settings. Lastly, I consider it a blessing and privilege to have the opportunity to come alongside pastors and ministry leaders struggling through the complexity of ministry life or in overcoming spiritual burnout.
I am also Certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and specialize in working with neurodivergent populations such as Autism Spectrum Disorders. My desire is to help others in times of hardship, meet them where they are, and help them to become the best version of themselves possible. I do believe that faith and a sense of purpose greater than yourself are key components to life-long healing.
My therapy style is direct but warm. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I don't believe in utilizing stigmatizing labels.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Rebecca is one of the kindest people I interacted. I come to therapy to find out the root of my problems and she will tell you how it is. She is a person who can gracefully point me in the right direction and not just tell you what you want to hear but what you need to hear. She gives great insight on faith therapy and I would say she is one of the best faith based therapist.
