The unresolved issues of an individual's life are clear and present dangers that inhibit their progress in all aspects of life. As a clinical social worker, therapist & life coach I would like to partner with you and guide you in facilitating your journey through change; assisting you in learning healthy adaptive ways to improve your response to encounters with life stressors and challenging life transitions, inclusive of mental health issues. I counsel with focus on positive outcome by engaging clients to become goal oriented and committed in pursuing their desired life goals, navigating life challenges and promote their well-being.

Are you struggling to cope with everyday stressors? Are you feeling anxious, depressed or "stuck" in life? Do you feel disconnected from others? Do you want to improve the way you handle problems? Do you want to increase your self-awareness? Whatever it is you may be experiencing, I can help you move beyond your struggles and guide you on a new path. We will work together to challenge the thoughts, beliefs, and patterns that prevent you from moving forward.

Welcome! As a counselor and founder of Rise Counseling Treasure Coast, I provide a safe and judgment-free space to guide you as you navigate through life’s difficulties.

I received my Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Palm Beach Atlantic University and a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Barry University. I am licensed in the state of Florida as a Mental Health Counselor and certified by the Florida Certification Board as a Certified Addictions Professional. I am also trained EMDR trauma therapist by EMDRIA. Offer Immigration Evaluations and Substance Use Evaluations.

Dear Hurting Person, Perhaps life for you has become so painful or complicated that you do not know what to do for relief. Is your experience of suffering overwhelming? Do your problems appear to have no real solutions? Are the very things that you used to do to cope with life no longer working? Are you feeling despair? Pain expresses itself through many feelings: loneliness, anxiety, grief, inadequacy, guilt, shame, emptiness, fear, obsession, sadness, depression, and even anger or rage. Confusion reigns when you are lost in anguish. Stress often restricts your clarity of thought and inhibits action.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who provides psychotherapy to individuals and families. I view therapy as a collaborative journey where developing a safe and trusting relationship is key. Together we explore feelings, thoughts and experiences which lie beneath the surface and have created barriers to happiness and connection in your life. I seek to create a safe space to encourage conversations which help my clients gain self-awareness, reduce negative symptoms, improve coping skills, express their feelings, promote empowerment , change unhealthy patterns, heal early childhood wounds, learn to connect genuinely with others, and improve quality of life.

I have over thirty five years experience as a clinician and through these many years I have developed a therapeutic approach of collaboration, trust and genuine caring. Just as in any relationship a positive connection between therapist and client is the most important ingredient of the counseling alliance. This, along with the knowledge of proven therapeutic techniques and strong clinical skills provides a recipe for successful outcomes. Life is often hectic given busy schedules with work, family and social events. To help ease this, I am offering a Saturday appointments to add some flexibility in scheduling.
