As a Florida Supreme Court Certified Mediator and Parenting Coordinator, I am trained to assist families who wish to work out the terms of their divorce or parenting schedules without the heartache and cost of litigation.
I often think in terms of systems and use a family therapy model for treatment. What that means is that we may identify how your family of origin impacts your feelings and behaviors. I also utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy and as well as RTM and EMDR for trauma, anxiety and PTSD. I have a passion working with veterans, law enforcement officers.

Hypnotherapy works directly with the subconscious which is the source of limiting beliefs that keep us from accomplishing our goals or locked into negative habitual behavioral/relational patterns. By accessing the subconscious, we are able to discover the root of the problem and then work to rewire the brain with the same methodology for lasting results!
