Healing is personal for me. I believe the most powerful therapy stems from authentic connection—I don’t just hear you; I see you because I’ve walked the path myself. I am a survivor of domestic violence, abandonment, and divorce. I’ve navigated life as a young, single, and married mom, overcoming physical, mental, and psychological abuse along the way. My own journey through trauma and imposter syndrome allows me to meet you with radical empathy and zero judgment. You’ve carried this weight alone long enough. I’m here to help you reclaim your story and find your best, most authentic self. You don't have to do this alone anymore.

I have several focuses including; men’s mental health, borderline personality disorder, eating disorders, and sex therapy. I have a heavy focus on childhood trauma and inner child work. I am a certified sex therapist with the state of Florida.

In preparation for EPPP & licensure, I am not providing assessment or psychotherapy services at this time. During this transition, I am fully pivoting into my role as Director of Growth & Guidance at Monarch Academy for Neurodiverse Youth/Young Adults (MANY), and continuing to provide concierge care for individuals with assigned diagnoses. Through MANY's Step-Up 4 Students-aligned programs, I help children, teens, and young adults access developmentally appropriate, enriching, and affirming experiences that support emotional regulation, executive functioning, social engagement and self-advocacy.

There are times in our lives that range from feeling impossible and never ending to not bad but not "right". Therapy can help you figure out the what, why, and how. What's exactly "wrong", why am I feeling that way and how do I move forward. This is even left up to you on what we work on and how far we dive into anything. I believe in creating a collaborative and nonjudgmental environment. I come from a non-traditional background which allows me to approach the therapeutic process in a holistic and eclectic way of meeting your starting point. I believe if we learn to be compassionate to ourselves, we are more open to healing change

Life is full of messy bits, sometimes these are unforeseen issues that pop up out of our control and sometimes they are a product of our own design. Regardless, in a culture where we must present as put together, in control, etc., it gets a little hard to trudge the water. If we aren’t careful this can lead to emotional, behavioral, interpersonal, and self dysregulation. At Just Keep Swimming Counseling, LLC, and my group practice Keep Evolving Beyond Therapy, I strive to create a healthy, safe space in order to set goals for growth, face challenges, and gain introspection to be a fuller, healthier you.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Through understanding comes healing and growth. Life is too short to surrender to bad relationships, trauma, or emotional pain. I want you to live a life of true happiness and find meaning in work, family, friendships, and all areas of life. I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life challenges you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible and experiencing yourself in new ways. Calling a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you take a moment (and maybe a deep breath) to call and see how I can help.

Living with trauma that's repeated or lasted for years isn't something you just 'get over.' Especially when it's shaped your entire way of being. I work with individuals who are experiencing PTSD, complex trauma, ADHD, anxiety, or mood disorders, many of whom have been told to "try harder" or "calm down" for most of their lives. You might feel like you're always on edge, or like something bad is about to happen, even when things seem okay. Or maybe your brain feels like it's running in 20 different directions at once, and it's exhausting just trying to keep up.

Why might an individual want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
A sex-positive or kinky individual may want to see a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist because the client may feel safer and more supported discussing their experiences and challenges. A therapist who identifies as kink-friendly will have experience with clients having diverse sexual preferences and will likely be nonjudgmental and supportive about issues brought to the table. It is important to note that sex-positive, kink-allied individuals may find equal success with therapists who do not have such specialized knowledge and background. The most important factor in the success of therapy is for the client and practitioner to form a strong, trusting bond.
Do therapists have special training to gain expertise in sex-positive, kink-allied treatment?
Generally, no. There are limited training programs and unofficial accreditations that therapists can pursue, but a therapist’s expertise will ultimately come from their previous experience with similar clients, their engagement with organizations that promote sex positivity or kink-allied lifestyles, and the importance they place on safety and cultural sensitivity.
How can individuals recognize a good sex-positive, kink-allied therapist?
An experienced therapist is able to help clients explore their sexual identity and expression and relieve any discomfort or stigma attached to discussing such matters and the client’s overall challenges. A therapist who is sex-positive and kink-allied is able to create an environment that honors a client’s experience and sexual preferences. To recognize a good therapist, clients can simply ask directly about topics and issues important to them and gauge their comfort level and connection with a clinician based on the responses.
Can clients benefit from having a therapist with a focus on sex positivity and alternative sexual lifestyles?
Some individuals may feel most comfortable knowing that the clinician they’re working with has a commitment to creating an atmosphere of sex positivity and has experience with relationship diversity and alternative relationship structures. Working with a sex-positive, kink-allied therapist may help clients respect their own challenges and improve identity-affirming treatment.
