About

Hello. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 6 years of professional work experience. I received my Master in Social Work degree from the University of Southern California. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-harm & anger management. I am an EMDR trained therapist and utilize it in most of my practice, along with mindfulness, I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for those who cannot tolerate EMDR. I believe in client centered strategies, meaning we build off of what you are already doing and have done in the past that works well. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. You are the author of your story and are inviting me in and sharing your story with me and I honor that. I like to use a collaborative approach and believe in feedback and honest communication along the way. You are not alone. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
