About
Feeling angry, frustrated or overly sad? Having difficulties in your relationship with family or friends? Changes in employment making staying focused and on task difficult? Have you found yourself being more withdrawn, hypervigilant, anxious or found yourself relying on alcohol, food or screen time to cope with stress? Sometimes we need a little extra support to gain clarity and explore other perspectives. Lets work together to explore healthier coping skills and make these situations feel less overwhelming for you. I believe a respectful, supportive, collaborative, free from judgement relationship is important for therapeutic healing. I am warm, caring and supportive. My specialties include depression, anxiety, substance abuse, parenting, relationship concerns and sex therapy. I work from a mindfulness approach and I am CBT and solution focused oriented. I enjoy working with clients of diverse ethnic backgrounds, cultures, gender, and sexual orientations. I believe in the power of choice and each persons ability to achieve their desired goals. I have a dual Masters in Mental Health and Substance Abuse Counseling from Nova Southeastern University and I’m currently working on my Ph.D in Clinical Sexology.
