Therapists in Oakland Park, FL

The most common phrase I hear when I ask new clients to describe themselves is "not good enough." As a result of invalidating life experiences, many of us come to believe that we are unworthy of acceptance. In order to avoid potential rejection, we conceal aspects of our identities that others might view as unacceptable, and we present a fragmented or incomplete version of ourselves to the world. While this can be advantageous in some environments, it also can become a barrier to intimacy. Many of my clients struggle to be vulnerable and find it challenging to embrace their full, authentic selves.

Do you scroll through your social media and wonder why you aren’t living your “best life”? You might say, “why does it feel like everyone else has their sh*t together and here I am, struggling to 'adult' on a good day?" Do you feel like you’ve lost your chance to live the life you always thought you'd have? Maybe you’ve achieved success, but are drowning in keeping up with your own unrelenting standards. You're exhausted from performing and disappointed that you always have to miss out. You know there is more to life than your job, but you can't seem to find that work/life balance. Life has become about keeping up versus living.

I take a somewhat novel approach to therapy, and I work best with individuals experiencing high levels of stress and anxiety due to anxiety disorders, life transitions, trauma and relationship issues. I work to help people in high stress careers overcome anxiety, lead a more productive life, and make room for the important relationships that provide a sense of meaning. I enjoy working with people who are motivated to change, but feel stuck and do not know exactly where to start.

Do other therapists seem judgmental? Don't understand? Won't listen to you? If you need to talk about anything and everything, clients tell me I have a strong capacity for compassion, empathy, and care. At the same time, I’m forthright and candid.

My role is to help you find that, and bring my own holistic vision, experience, training, expertise, and tools to the table, so you can work to be the best possible version of you.
