Over 30 years of clinical knowledge and expertise.

As a seasoned clinician who excels in identifying problems, conflicts and roadblocks experienced by many of my clients, I can often times help you to see what you cannot. Most clients know what they want, however, have difficulty navigating from point A to point B.

I have found my most complete, spiritual joy is the privilege that I have in accompanying many of my clients as they invite me into their lives and walk with them on their path to wellness.

Individual, couples, and family counseling

My most successful clients are those who are motivated to work. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families where stress, codependency, anxiety, depression, body image, or relationship/communication issues have caused personal discord. I specialize in addiction, women’s issues and trauma. I am an advanced practitioner of ART (accelerated resolution therapy) which is particularly useful in treating depression, anxiety, panic attacks , PTSD, and many other mental and emotional conditions.
I am a Qualified Supervisor for the State of Florida and I can provide clinical supervision to MSW, MFT & MHC registered interns.

Research has shown consistently that no matter what counseling method is used, the connection between you and your therapist is the essential factor in feeling better about yourself, and your life. In my therapy sessions, we’ll work to solve current problems and improve positive thinking and behavior. I will help you “re-frame” your reactions and provide you with valuable tools to cope with life’s obstacles. I’m confident you’ll find my approach beneficial and inspirational. I am versed in a number of treatment modalities tailoring the most effective for you. Get in touch to book an appointment.

Women’s Groups

Re-Storying Your Life
Very often in our lives, we can feel as if the life we live is a story that has been written for us, one that is predetermined, one where we have limited input or control to script, different plot. Come join other aspiring women as a journey into the empowering stance of authoring their own life!
Group start date and time TBD

What’s Eating You?
Reducing the power of emotion to trigger urges is essential to maintaining healthy, nutritional habits. In this group, members will explore the difference between various stomach signals and emotional triggers to overeat, understand mindful, versus mindless eating, become adept at identifying emotional cues and learn to express uncomfortable feelings and self soothe without the use of food.

Group start date and time TBD

I offer a number of women’s empowerment groups that are in-person. This creates a safe space for sharing ideas, hopes, and ideas for navigating challenges. These groups generally focus on a particular theme or topic to acquire the new skills and practices to live and experience the life you deserve.
