You're an adult navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, or a major life transition, and lately you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself. Maybe you're working through complex trauma, postpartum challenges, intimate partner harm, or strain in an important relationship, and you're unsure where to turn. You want clarity, steadiness, and change that actually lasts. I work with individuals and couples ready to do meaningful, paced work in a space that feels safe and affirming. With nearly two decades of experience, I help clients build insight, regulate difficult emotions, and reconnect with themselves & their relationships.
I specialize in trauma and PTSD, complex trauma, perinatal and postpartum mental health, grief, identity, and relationship work with adults and couples. I draw on CBT, DBT, ACT, and trauma-focused, mindfulness-based approaches, and for couples integrate Emotionally Focused and Gottman work. I offer affirming virtual therapy across Florida.
Taking the first step can feel daunting, especially when you've been carrying so much for so long. You don't have to sort through it alone, or have the right words ready. Whether you're healing from trauma, finding your footing after a major change, or wanting deeper connection in your relationship, support is here.

I often draw on CBT, DBT, and ACT, along with trauma-focused and mindfulness-based approaches, woven together to fit you rather than a one-size-fits-all method. In our first session, we'll explore what brought you in and set clear collaborative goals. From there, we will look at how your thoughts and patterns shape your emotions and build practical tools.
