I'm a Licensed Therapist in Florida.  I hold both a Bachelor's Degree and a Master's Degree in Social Work from Florida State University.  During my career, I’ve spent years helping individuals and groups of all different backgrounds and at a variety of places in life including veterans and those involved in the criminal justice system.  I'll take time to get to know you as an individual and learn more about the uniqueness of your experience. 
 
I am comfortable working with adults, families, and couples.  I'm experienced with helping those who are overcoming substance abuse, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationships, PTSD, and OCD.  I regularly taking opportunities to increase my knowledge in these and other areas of practice so that I can stay up to date and provide you with the help you need and best services. 
 
During our sessions, we'll partner together to identify and prioritize what is most important to you and we'll formulate a plan to address these topics.  I'm empathetic and will take the time to understand you and your reasons for seeking therapy.  Reaching out for help is a brave step and I am looking forward to meeting you.
