Are you looking for someone who listens? Tired of the same approach to therapy? Maybe you need a change in your life. Making change is hard. I'm not your average therapist and I understand how you feel. My goal is to break barriers and make mental health approachable. No stuffy couch, dark room or judgmental vibes. Offering a laid back approach to therapy that makes you want to come back for the next session instead of avoiding it. I have been a therapist for over 10 years and specialize in addictions, relationship issues, depression and anxiety issues and childhood trauma. I use many approaches and adjust my therapeutic interventions based on each clients needs.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor in the State of Florida. I earned my Masters Degree in Counseling from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 2000. I have 20 years of professional counseling with a wide range of clinical training. I have been able to assist individuals, couples and/or families deal with life stressors with a focus on the presenting diagnostic issues: depression, anxiety, mood, domestic violence, child welfare, dependency, delinquency, parent/child conflict and trauma issues to name a few. I've worked as a Foster Care Worker, Child Protective Services Counselor and Protective Investigator in the State of Florida. I have years of experience working with the Court System, Educational System and other community providers. My counseling style is Eclectic Therapy with a primary focus on Client Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy models. I view myself as eclectic because my intervention style is based on the assessment process and what I see from an individualized standpoint is helping the individual/couple/family achieve their specific needs and achieve success. I am excited that you and/or your family have made a decision to identify life issues/stressors and seek help for the concerns that continue to be unresolved. This is truly tough love when we are able to hang in there and provide therapeutic support for each other. I look forward to the journal to success and being BETTER! :)

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing Psychotherapy & Coaching Services. I have worked as a Mental Health Professional for the past 20 years. I have experience supporting others while working in Child Welfare, Psychiatric Research, Crisis Intervention/Counseling, Active Duty Military, In/Outpatient Therapy, & Hospice. I am delighted to work with those seeking TeleHealth Services & feel so thankful this outlet exists. I specialize in Client-Centered & Solution-Focused Therapies while striving to help achieve a sense of Empowerment for my clients. My practice is based on the premise that all human systems are interconnected. An example would be a person's chronic pain exacerbating their level of anxiousness. Often the anxiety we experience also agitates our pain level. It proves challenging to discern which came first when both are heightened. The more we learn & know about ourselves, the easier it is to know "what to do". My goal is to aid in that process & then work towards what works best to put into routine in effort to have a fulfilling, & high, overall quality of life. I am very much looking forward to working with you & am hopeful we can work together to achieve your goals!

My practice is based on the understanding that the degree of enjoyment and happiness in each of our lives are closely tied to the quality of our relationship with our self and our relationships with others. If you are experiencing a lack of inner peace, of enjoyment and happiness in your life and relationship (s), or if this has been a pattern in your past relationships that you desire to resolve, I encourage you to contact me. I am a seasoned therapist with over 25 years of experience, that has ranged from helping persons living in the inner-city of Chicago as they learned to recover from an addiction and abuse/ trauma- related experiences, to helping families displaced from Hurricane Katrina, as well as working with men and their families, teaching and coaching the development of improved self-image, interpersonal, and fathering skills to heal and re- build their relationships affected by sexual, emotional, physical abuse, and neglect in their family histories. Of course, over the years I have had many persons with less severe issues and focus on here-and-now concerns that are affecting their quality of life. Whether you choose short-term or longer-term counseling I have expertise in multiple therapy modalities but always view each person with a multi-cultural lens so I may understand each person in the contexts of which they experience their own unique life. I offer you a warm, non- judgmental, honest atmosphere that invites you to explore your relationship strengths and build new skills that can enhance your current, as well as future relationships where you can experience the joy, warmth, and happiness you seek and deserve.
