I am passionate about helping people find hope and healing. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I have experience working with clients from varied backgrounds and cultures. I have additional experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma and much of that time has been working with survivors of sexual abuse/assault and childhood trauma. My goal is to help individuals process their experiences and reach adaptive and healthy resolutions so they can face the future with confidence. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and have observed it to be the most successful with clients who have experienced trauma. I am also a Qualified Supervisor for Mental Health Counselors in the state of Florida.

I am passionate about helping children, teenagers and adults process and heal from difficult life experiences. Regarding children, I am a Registered Play Therapist and help children process and express themselves through developmentally appropriate therapeutic play. For several years I have been working with young children who have experienced trauma, especially sexual abuse. I know how devastating the experience of sexual abuse or assault can be to children and their families, and I can help you navigate the process of healing, as well as working with the victim's advocate, child protection team and court. I also enjoy helping teens and adults using EMDR therapy, which helps reprocess difficult or traumatic experiences in order to heal and move forward with a healthy life. EMDR can be beneficial whether you have experienced one traumatic event or are working to overcome many difficult experiences in your life.

I strive to provide a warm, inviting setting where clients are provided with an individualized therapeutic experience to promote a positive well-being. My practice is trauma focused, with an emphasis on healing. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and use a client-centered approach. I have over 10 years of experience working with adolescents and adults. Please contact me today to continue on the path towards healing. I conceptualize most cases from an Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model; I explore with clients how their experiences have shaped them and help guide them towards an adaptive resolution. I believe that the client's brain has the ability to heal itself. Experiences can hurt us but they need not define us. This is a favorite quotation of mine:

You have been trying to calm the worries, deal with the feelings, or manage difficult relationship challenges on your own. Maybe an outside, unbiased perspective on your situation could allow you to find new ways to resolve your concerns. I work with clients to change the way they see themselves, and the way they interact in all areas of their world. It is time for you to feel better, and I believe I can help. I am a genuine, non-judgmental, and trustworthy therapist. Clients say I am real, relatable and eager to work with you achieve YOUR goals in therapy. I am trained in evidence-based therapies which help you get on the path to thinking and feeling better. I am a certified EMDR therapist and am also trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I also work with EAP programs to provide employee training and am available for critical incident response interventions when an unexpected negative event occurs. It takes courage to start therapy! It is important that you find someone who allows you to feel heard, safe, and understood. Even if you are nervous about taking this next step, this might be the best time to make a change.
