You want to stop people-pleasing, set loving boundaries, and feel safe, seen, and supported—without guilt or blame.

Great to meet you! I am a Faith-Based Therapist in Tampa and I help you heal from trauma. My clients typically have trouble with significant changes in their life.

We often imagine our lives being lived differentially but until we make those steps to change we continue down the path of cycling through pain, discomfort, and often instability. We all have in us the ability and capability to make both cognitive and behavioral changes. Sometimes this is complicated due to depression, grief, anxiety, trauma etc. Allow me to help you through your journey to wellness with the different forms of therapy I offer and interventions as needed, even if it is just someone to talk to.

We can all become bogged down by intense emotions that create a hurdle to our ability to function in life, most often at the detriment of success or being able to achieve what we feel are simple tasks in life. I work with clients to help them uncover and make sense of emotional barriers that have plagued them for far too long, often dismissed by others in their lives. Being accepted unconditionally, regardless of background, orientation, or presentation, in a therapeutic setting, you can find more personal potential and free yourself of the "rules" prescribed by the outside world and finally find yourself, the person that matters.

I specialize in EMDR and trauma-focused therapy.
Discovering your partner's infidelity is one of the most devastating experiences you can face. If you're feeling shocked, confused, angry, or heartbroken—know this is a legitimate trauma response.

I understand the shattered trust, intrusive thoughts, and questioning of everything you believed to be true. This isn't something you "just get over", it requires specialized care from someone who truly understands betrayal trauma.
