As a licensed therapist in Florida, I bring over two decades of experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges related to depression, relationship dynamics, trauma recovery, and personal growth.
I specialize in creating affirming spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals and those working through deeply personal struggles with self-acceptance, communication, and emotional healing. My approach is compassionate and client-centered, focusing on building self-love, processing difficult emotions like guilt and shame, and developing healthier interpersonal skills.
I understand that healing is a deeply personal journey. My goal is to walk alongside you with empathy, respect, and professional expertise, helping you discover your inner strength and create meaningful, positive change in your life. Whether you're addressing long-standing emotional patterns or navigating current life challenges, I'm committed to providing supportive, non-judgmental guidance.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
