Personal Statement
My focus is on healthy living. At Ascend Counseling and Wellness, I promote health and positivity through a number of modalities, from individual, couples’, or family therapy to workshops intended to teach clients about nutrition, raw foods, and other means of living in health. Additionally, I offer group therapy sessions to help people cope with divorce (children) and parenting issues (including sessions just for stepparents), and couples’ preparing for parenting.
The individual, couples’ or family therapy I provide focuses on individual strengths and needs. I am a certified practitioner in clinical hypnotherapy with rapid trauma resolution. I also work with individuals dealing with past traumas from sexual, domestic, and other abuses. Using a variety of techniques, I can also assist people toward personal growth and wellness from depression, anxiety, ADHD, learning disorders, LGBT issues, divorce, PTSD, grief and loss, and beyond.
Even if you are looking for guidance regarding issues, such as stress management, career counseling, or parenting support, I am eager to help you move past your impasse and into a life of health.
As a counselor in private practice and founder of Ascend Counseling & Wellness, I am committed to providing confidential, compassionate care. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Supreme Court of Florida Certified Family Mediator, Certified Practitioner in Clinical Hypnosis with Rapid Trauma Resolution, Prepare/Enrich Couples Counselor, and Certified Elementary Educator.
