I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. My dual certification allows me to approach care holistically — understanding both the psychiatric and medical factors that impact overall wellness.
I have experience working with individuals experiencing mood disorders, anxiety, trauma-related conditions, behavioral concerns, and severe mental illness. I believe mental health care should be collaborative, respectful, and individualized. Every client’s story is unique, and I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. My goal is not only symptom relief but helping you build stability, insight, and long-term wellness.
Work with adults, adolescents and children with anxiety and depression. Help in transitional phases of life (work, divorce, sexuality and gender, school etc)
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (FL & VA), using evidence-based practices (DBT, CBT, mindfulness, and somatic awareness) to serve adult clients who are rebuilding connection after loss, burnout, or major transitions.
Outside of therapy, I am a musician and photographer, an outdoor enthusiast, and a yogi. These creative and grounding practices remind me that growth isn't just about insight - it's about connection, expression, and returning to what feels most alive!
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a background in both clinical mental health and education. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Florida A&M University and am currently pursuing a Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership at Saint Thomas University. My training has shaped a holistic approach that considers emotional well-being within family, school, and community contexts.
I provide individual therapy to children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma-related stress, emotional regulation difficulties, academic stress, and life transitions. I have experience working in community mental health and school-based settings, supporting diverse populations.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, person-centered therapy, mindfulness strategies, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and strengths-based interventions. I often incorporate creative techniques when helpful, especially with younger clients.
All services are provided through secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions.
I am a non-judgmental, client centered therapist who is personally familiar with the challenges of single parenting, divorce, codependency, abuse, anxiety, and alcoholism. I have worked in middle/high schools in Pinellas County (28 yrs), and I am continuously working to learn new counseling strategies/ applications to help my clients overcome their challenges and develop new coping skills to face the challenges of life on every level. Life can get better as we age, if we know how to approach it.
Do you struggle with anxiety and perfectionism that affects your ability to rest and be content? Do you feel overwhelmed by playing by the rules and still feeling stuck? Do you wonder if it is supposed to be this hard? Now more than ever, high-achieving teens and adults are feeling burnt out as they navigate relationships and work. Not addressing your anxiety or trauma history can lead to anxiety, burnout, and loneliness. We believe you can find hope and peace again.
I discovered my mission when I realized how powerful and beautiful love is. I got my Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Health Administration at Florida Atlantic University and proceeded to receive my Master's degree at the University of Central Florida in Marriage, Couples, and Family counseling. My mission is helping others to rediscover who they are and teach them to be secure within themselves so that they can be secure in the relationships they have with others.
I'm a Florida LCSW with 4 years helping teens and adults navigate crisis, substance use, and life transitions—whether in hospital, detox, residential, or outpatient settings. I focus on real-world tools, insight, and building lasting confidence.
I specialize in working with couples that want a stronger relationship, kids hurting from divorce, angry teens, frustrated parents and individuals looking to find purpose in life. Also, for those whose work schedules may interfere with their availability, I do offer evenings and weekend sessions.
