- LMHC
As a licensed therapist in Florida, I specialize in supporting individuals and couples navigating complex relationship dynamics. My professional approach centers on helping clients improve communication, work through interpersonal challenges, and develop healthier emotional connections. I have experience addressing relationship issues, family conflicts, intimacy concerns, and life changes and adjustments.
My therapeutic practice focuses on understanding the unique dynamics of each relationship, whether you're dealing with communication breakdowns, separation, attachment challenges, or exploring personal sexuality. I create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences and develop meaningful strategies for growth and healing.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I aim to empower clients to build stronger, more authentic connections—both with themselves and with others. I believe that every individual has the capacity for positive change and meaningful transformation in their relationships.

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.
