Let's Connect (321) 394-9983
Across the globe, everyone is dealing with stressors of life, whether it be work, school, relationships, and more. Understanding your feelings, handling life changes, building self-esteem and empowerment are all things that I love to work with clients on. These are things that affect everyone from all ages and all walks of life. If you are looking for balance, clarity, or understanding within your life, my goal is to help you achieve this, reaching mental wellness in a way that meets your needs.
I graduated from Webster University and have training in and focused on areas such as Play Therapy, use of creative/expressive arts, and I utilize Adlerian, Solution-Focused, and person centered counseling approaches, as well as techniques from Cognitive Behavior Therapy to help clients move toward a balanced life.
Together, we can begin your journey towards wellness. I enjoy connecting with my clients and helping them figure out what tools they want or need to create their path in life. I offer weeknights and weekends because I know that life is busy and having an outlet is important.
