You may have come to this site because you're hurting, dealing with issues of life that you just can't seem to figure out, or simply searching for a safe place to share your thoughts and the things that are on your heart and mind. Or maybe you're facing disappointment, anger, or resentment, and at times you feel like you want to throw in the towel. There is good news... I am here to walk with you and help you move from merely surviving to thriving! I became a therapist because I believe that everyone deserves to have somebody that they can be transparent with and receive insight oriented feedback about what is troubling them in their lives. Helping people connect the dots and discover the purpose in those life events and experiences is what I believe is the key to a better life. By coming here it means that you have taken the 1st step to getting better and I would be happy to help. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate from Barry University and Bachelor's and Master's degree from The University of Texas @ Arlington with over 15 years of varied experience working with children, adults, couples, and families in a variety of settings providing both long term and brief interventions. Areas of expertise include: Anxiety & Depression, Relationship challenges, Family conflict, Phases of life changes, and next steps. I welcome clients with these particular struggles. I use a variety of therapeutic tools and tailor treatment to the individual, couple, or family. I believe that change happens when people are given the insight they need to draw on their own strengths and realize their potential to live fulfilling, happy lives and get back to the "normal" that we all desire. In my free time I love traveling, spending time with my family, and giving back through various service projects in my community. Helping people is my passion and helping you would give me joy!
