Self Esteem Therapists in Polk County, FL
Life can feel overwhelming sometimes. It’s tough when you’re dealing with depression, self-doubt, anger, relationship struggles, grief, or trauma from your past. You might feel lost, stuck, or like you’re carrying more than you know how to manage. You want things to feel different—better—but you’re not sure where to begin.
This can be especially important during life transitions—whether you're stepping away from student life, figuring out what’s next, or just feeling overwhelmed by all the unknowns. You don’t need to have it all figured out. Starting somewhere is enough.

I know the importance of finding someone who lets you take your time, respects your emotional development and upholds your dignity. I want to help you make sense of the life that you have and turn it into the one you want. Growth looks different for all of us. What blocks us from it might not block everybody else, too. We are all doing the best we can and deserve the best not just for, but from ourselves. Do you want a helping hand and open heart to help you reconnect with the center of who you are?

I have a deep commitment to providing a safe, inclusive, and affirming space for all clients. My work is rooted in empathy, compassion, authenticity, and acceptance.

I strive to create an environment where there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach. My goal is to work alongside you, helping you navigate challenges, uncover your strengths, and empower you to live authentically.

Being human is hard. Life with all it's twist and turns can be so confusing, what's right today is wrong tomorrow. Quite possibly you have been thinking about finding a counselor for some time and have been "fighting" societal stigma of mental health services. Telling yourself that you are fine, no one will understand, or feeling shame for needing help. One of my favorite quotes about healing is..."Healing doesn't mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives."

Hello, I'm a licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in Central Florida with over ten years working in Mental Health and four years providing counseling. Carl Rogers once said, "It is the client who knows what hurts, what direction to go, what problems are crucial, what experiences have been deeply buried".

If you're experiencing recent changes, trying to manage depression, anxiety, or find ways to cope with stress, finding someone to talk to, free of judgment, who is also supportive can make all the difference.
