About

I am licensed in Florida with 13 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I believe we are the sum of what we encounter in life and how we react to these encounters. Encounters began during the time where we relied on others to love and protect us. When we didn’t have control over what happened to us. Sometimes leaving us with a uneasy perception of the world. If the perception is bad, the world is bad. If the perception is unsafe, the world is unsafe. If the perception is untrustworthy, the world is untrusting. Now the world in front of us has become full of unsatisfying feelings and a journey trying to escape emotional pain.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, I combine the world of mental health and family/relational conflicts to help guide clients to a space where healing can began. For over 13 years, my work includes working with children from infancy to teenagers; young adults to geriatric; and with families, from single parents to blended.
If you are tired of running from memories; need help with regaining the control you thought you lost or you’re ready to deal with the personality that life experiences have created in you, we can join forces and I can help guide you to a place of healing and understanding. Let’s work on developing a new meaning of your life so you can become a better you.
