Adlerian Therapists in Florida

Do you feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? Maybe you've weathered the storm of past abuse, the sting of strained relationships, or the pressure of constant transitions. I see you. I'm a trauma-focused therapist, and in my safe haven, your diversity is embraced. I will help you learn skills necessary to flourish in every aspect of your life. We will work together to transform your weaknesses into strengths, so you can finally live the life you desire. Starting counseling with me does not mean something is wrong with you, it means you are finally ready to heal and be the master of your own life.

I prefer clients who are ready to make positive changes for themselves. I approach each client holistically and adapt my approach to my clients' specific needs. I believe we can all improve the quality of our lives, and I will work with my clients to reach this goal.

An ideal client is someone who is dedicated to putting in the work necessary to facilitate lasting changes in their lives. Clients embark on a therapeutic journey that leads them to a deeper, richer, more secure and more grounded relationship with themselves. Once clients are able to attain feelings of authenticity and peacefulness within themselves, they are in a far better position to enrich and enhance the lives of people around them. I partner with my clients, no matter where they are when they start this journey, and I am at their side every step of the way.

Many people experience feelings of inadequacy, depression, anxiety, or just feeling "stuck".

I am proud to have been that resource for so many already, and I look forward to helping others as we share our journeys together.
