Sexual Abuse Therapists in Jacksonville, FL

Sometimes talk therapy is not enough. I want my clients to know three things: that change is possible, what change feels like physically and emotionally, and that the power for change resides in you. I’ve been helping clients for 32 years, to uncover the root cause of their problems and help rewire the brain using techniques such as EFT, Energy Psychology, and PSYCH-K. These complementary and holistic techniques can be used in a specific individual plan to help shift your life. At this time I am only providing virtual sessions.

EMDRIA-Certified EMDR Therapist and Consultant-in-Training. It is exhausting when your appearance to the outside world doesn't match how you feel on the inside.

Choosing to engage in therapy, in a way, means choosing yourself. It is not always easy to believe we can feel better, or even just feel different. Sometimes it’s not easy to accept how we feel is perfectly normal and okay. You’ve learned so much on your journey, I hope to help you see how much you already have and help you on your journey forward, even if that feels really messy or impossible at times. I strive to provide a confidential and accepting space where you can explore how you got here and figure out where you want to go.

Art therapy can access our emotions and experiences in ways that may be deeper or more meaningful than words alone. I understand that sitting in front of a new person and talking about feelings or past traumas can feel inaccessible or intimidating. In my work as a board certified art therapist and licensed mental health counselor, I have found that art therapy can help to ease some of that discomfort by providing an alternate form of self expression. My therapeutic style includes aspects of process-focused artmaking, mindfulness, somatic therapy, as well as social justice and intersectional feminism.

The journey to effective change begins where you are; and realizing this is only one chapter of your life; you have the choice how your future chapters are written. I truly believe real change is achieved when you recognize and accept your current situation, "It Is What It Is" (often a mixture of comfort/discontent). Our journey begins by identifying and utilizing your strengths as building blocks for change. My goal is to help you embrace and work through your struggle, be it mood/emotion, anxiety, relationship issues, grief/loss, or simply identifying and cultivating a deeper happiness in life.
