I am a Registered Clinical Social Work Intern in the State of Florida. I hold a Bachelor‘s Degree in Psychology from the University of Florida, as well as a Master’s Degree in Social Work and a Master’s Degree in Criminology from Florida State University.
During my career, I have spent time working with children, families, and adults with varying backgrounds. Some of these have included women and families experiencing domestic violence, families involved with the child protective system, and children experiencing serious hospitalizations. I am comfortable working with adults, teenagers, preteens, and families. I am experienced in working with families or individuals who are overcoming anxiety, depression, grief or loss, women’s issues, teen’s issues, intimate partner violence, PTSD, and relationship issues. I tailor my approach to each individual to provide the help you need in a caring and nonjudgmental environment. I am warm and compassionate, and I take time to understand your life experiences as well as your reasons for seeking therapy. During our work, we will come together to identify the topics and goals that are most important to you. We will then create a plan that addresses these topics in a way that is achievable for you. It takes courage to reach out for help and I look forward to meeting you and learning about you! |

Psychotherapist |
I am here to help parents, tweens and teens navigate challenges they are experiencing in an open and trusting atmosphere. I offer a safe, supportive environment where freedom to express big feelings, struggles and hopes are welcome. I tailor therapy sessions to match the personality and needs of everyone using evidenced based treatment methods. I have worked with people of all ages while specializing in the mental health needs of children and families for the past 20 years. In my work I have found that people express themselves differently at various stages of their life; and understanding and that is my specialty. My work includes a wide range of families raising children and adolescents suffering from attachment difficulties due to developmental issues, self-harm, disrupted relationships and trauma.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Clinician and hold a bachelor's degree in social work from USF and a masters in mental health counseling from Webster University. Previous work includes mental health targeted case management with children in the foster care system, counseling children and families in both private and nonprofit sectors and facilitating groups and workshops for differently abled young adults. Certifications include Maternal Mental Health Professional assisting mothers with postpartum needs involving mental health challenges and transitions and Circle of Security facilitator, a network that provides evidence-based program implemented throughout the world with children and parents experiencing difficulties that focuses on relationships. In addition to private work, I contract with a nonprofit as the creative arts facilitator. Since 2015 I have provided drama-based recreation therapy and group counseling for family retreats. The weekends include families with a child with autism, cancer, blood disorders, Down’s Syndrome, Epilepsy, LGBTQ+ teens, death of a child or loved one, returning veterans with PTSD and more. I truly look forward to working with you and helping you meet your needs wherever you are. |
