Here to Support You Every Step of the Way
Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Whether navigating emotional distress, relationship challenges, trauma, family conflict, substance use concerns, or major life transitions, it can be difficult to know where to begin. Therapy provides an opportunity to better understand yourself, strengthen relationships, and develop healthier ways of coping with life's challenges. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and tailored to each client's unique needs and experiences. I integrate evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based interventions to support healing and growth. Together, we work to strengthen emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, improve communication, and develop practical tools for lasting change.I strive to create a safe, supportive, and welcoming environment where clients feel seen, understood, and empowered. My goal is to help individuals, couples, and families build greater emotional balance, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of connection to themselves and others.
Experience
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist with experience providing trauma-informed, evidence-based care to children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Master of Social Work from Florida State University.Throughout my career, I have worked with children in school-based and clinical settings, helping them navigate emotional regulation challenges, behavioral concerns, anxiety, trauma responses, and social difficulties. I utilize developmentally appropriate interventions and collaborate closely with families to support growth and long-term success.My experience also includes residential treatment, outpatient programs, and private practice settings, where I have supported clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use concerns, relationship difficulties, emotional regulation challenges, and family conflict. I am passionate about helping clients gain insight, develop resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.

More Than My Work
Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy spending time by the ocean, going for a swim, listening to music, reading, and watching the sunrise or sunset. These moments help me stay grounded, present, and connected to what matters most. I also love pop culture, especially movies and television and can usually connect any actor you mention to something they have been in. I'm often the person who can give you a full filmography and a fun fact about almost anyone on screen.
