About
I am licensed in Florida with 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, career difficulties, & depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I began my career as an Art Therapist, afterward completing studies to become a Certified Addiction Counselor and Qualified Supervisor. I gained licensure in Florida, and have worked as a group facilitator, primary therapist, and Clinical Director in multiple treatment centers in South Florida, where the focus was addiction and mental health treatment. My approach is eclectic and person-centered. Some theories that I utilize during sessions include ACT, DBT, CBT, and most importantly, developing a relationship with my clients where there is a safe space to explore issues and changes.
