You may be here because you’re feeling down, stuck, or lost. Maybe you're trapped in a web of worry, struggling with irritability or anger, or feeling depressed or numb. Whether you’ve faced a life-changing event or you're struggling with daily stresses that pile up, I want you to know that you’re not alone. You’re in the right place, and therapy can help. I welcome adults, teens, children, and families for therapy in my office in South Miami. For adults, I also offer online therapy (you may have heard the term "teletherapy") using video conference, so if you live elsewhere in Florida or have a busy schedule, help is still in reach.
I provide therapy for a variety of personal needs, with special emphasis in treating anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic stress. My focus is on you: helping you feel safe and supported to be yourself, to heal yourself, and to feel better. We will start where you are and focus where you want to focus, all at your pace.
If you’re still not sure if therapy feels right for you, I encourage you to visit my website to learn more about me, send me e-mail, or give me a call so I can answer any lingering questions. In addition to therapy, I offer Psychological and Forensic Assessment services. If you’re looking for these types of testing, give me a call to discuss your needs!
