Hi! I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with a doctorate degree in clinical psychology. I began working in the field over 20 years ago treating children, teens and adults struggling with emotional and behavioral disorders. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns such as depression, anxiety, life transitions, low self esteem, career challenges, addiction, and trauma.
I utilize a psychodynamic approach with CBT, DBT, Interpersonal Psychology, and Motivational Interviewing . I will be sure to tailor our sessions with the best approaches to meet your individualized needs.
I have a passion for mental health and helping others feel better. My style is emphatic and nonjudgmental as I treat everyone with respect, compassion and validation. It is very courageous of you to make the first step in wanting to feel better. When you are ready, I am here to listen, support and help you feel empowered!
I look forward to working with you and hearing more about your story!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
