About

I am a mental health counselor licensed in Florida with over ten years of experience. I am a gender-affirming therapist with extensive knowledge of working with LGBTQI+ clients. I also have experience helping clients who have been sexually traumatized. My counseling style is inclusive and collaborative. I believe in treating everyone with empathy, respect, and kindness. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and solution-focused counseling. I tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I look forward to working with you and helping you on your journey!
