As a licensed therapist in Florida, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on empowering clients to develop resilience, self-understanding, and meaningful strategies for personal growth. I have extensive experience addressing challenges such as anxiety, family dynamics, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions.

My therapeutic practice honors diverse experiences and identities, creating a compassionate space where clients can explore their unique journeys. I draw from evidence-based approaches to help individuals develop stronger communication skills, process challenging emotions, and cultivate self-compassion.

I'm particularly passionate about supporting clients through significant life changes, workplace challenges, social anxiety, and personal transformation. Whether you're struggling with stress, seeking deeper self-understanding, or working through complex emotional experiences, I'm committed to walking alongside you with genuine empathy and professional expertise.

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.
