I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Life Coach, and Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist in Florida with over 25 years of experience in the mental health and wellness field.
I help people learn how to manage the hard parts of life — the stress, uncertainty, and emotional pain that can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed. With an ever present underpinning of nervous system regulation and cognitive techniques, my work covers a wide range of areas, including:
Depression, anxiety, and stress relief
Trauma, abuse, and emotional healing
Relationship and parenting challenges
Career, leadership and performance concerns
ADHD, focus, and motivation difficulties
Self-esteem, confidence, life direction and growth
Sleep, stress management, and mind-body balance
My style is warm, genuine, and rooted in authenticity. Life is demanding and fast-paced, so I believe in keeping things practical, straightforward, and real. The foundations of healing and growth — both personally and professionally — require self-awareness, self-trust, boundaries, responsibility, and accountability.
I draw from a variety of therapeutic and coaching approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Hypnotherapy, Eye Movement Therapy, Somatic and Mindfulness-based methods, and Psychoanalytic insight. I tailor my approach to each individual, always using a strength-based and collaborative process focused on your goals and needs.
Whether you’re seeking emotional healing, personal clarity, or professional growth, I offer a supportive and empowering partnership designed to help you create meaningful, lasting change.
You’re not alone in wanting to feel better — and you don’t have to do it alone. Together, we can create space for understanding, healing, and meaningful change. It takes courage to invest in yourself, and I would be honored to walk beside you on that journey.
