There are times in our lives when things just don't seem to go according to plan. I believe everyone has the capacity to change the way they think and feel and to live the life they've dreamed of no matter what may be going on around us! Creating change requires support and experience on the part of the therapist. Through a process of empathy and understanding, I assist clients in creating positive changes in their lives. I provide a hope-inducing environment, which allows clients to feel comfortable as we create a customized plan to go from "feeling stuck" toward achieving personal goals and making positive, lasting changes!

I am focused on providing a collaborative and person-centered approach for those seeking therapeutic services. There is no "one-size-fits-all" philosophy in counseling and each person deserves an individualized process that can help with developing tools in order to better cope with life stressors or transitions. My goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment throughout each client's journey towards finding clarity and stability in their lives. Everyone deserves to find the confidence in themselves to further their personal or professional goals in life.

My counseling approach is client-centered and goal-oriented. By definition, this allows individuals to experience growth, positive outcomes, and fulfillment by actively participating in his or her own therapy in order to create change. Often, people lose hope when they think that things will never be different. They try and struggle and sometimes fail. But, you have an opportunity to think differently, relate differently, and transition from negativity to positive behaviors which will result in a powerful sense of self and promote strong interpersonal relationships.

Life is not alwa stresses of life can become overwhelming and burdensome at times. We are all faced with difficult times, situations, and circumstances that we need help with. Those difficulties can sometimes leave us feeling depressed, overwhelmed, filled with worry and anxiety, or even suicidal. We all need a safe place to explore those emotions we are feeling, the hurts and pains that have happened, or the grief that seems to be lingering. My goal in your therapy journey is to provide you a safe place to explore those difficulties, working towards a healthier and happier life.

Mental illness and relationship problems are no longer taboo topics of conversation; they are real and widespread issues. A lot of people suffer quietly because they are afraid of being called "crazy" or told, "just stop feeling that way." If it were that easy, no one would have problems! The reality is that we all need help. We all need healthy relationships. We all need hope. My roles as a therapist are to show you empathy, emotional support, and acceptance, and to help you thrive no matter where you are on your mental health journey.

I am originally from Chicago and I have called Florida home for over 20 years. I believe that everyone is capable of greatness if they can only get the direction and chance that they need. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step". To me this means that no matter where you have started in life and whatever challenge that you are facing, you are not stuck and you can achieve things that you may not have been able to imagine.
