Couples Counseling Therapists in Tampa, FL

I began my social work career supporting and advocating for women impacted by human trafficking at a non-profit agency. I now work with teens as a school social worker. I have experience working with survivors of domestic and sexual violence, individuals with family members struggling with addiction, self-esteem and body-image issues, life transitions, depression, anxiety, loss, eating disorders, and am passionate about working with the LGBTQIA+ population. There’s debate about what it is that makes therapy effective. I believe that it’s a mixture of a nurturing, non-judgmental relationship with your therapist, solid and tailored.

There are many reasons someone may choose to enter therapy. Some may want to improve their mood or reduce their tendency to worry. Others may need help adjusting to loss or enduring significant changes in life such as retirement, divorce, changing careers, becoming a new parent, or relocation. Still, others are hoping to improve their overall psychological well-being. Some people may desire a safe place where they can build an understanding of their emotional experiences or receive support in a private setting. Whatever your reason for seeking treatment, it is important to find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable.

We believe in the importance of both Science and Spirituality in our work. We are advocates for both Herbal and Prescription treatment and believe in the use of both Eastern and Western medical systems to treat disease and maintain health. We practice a model of therapy, coaching, and counseling which is collaborative, open and holistic in nature. Our therapeutic relationship should feel warm, safe and be connecting. This model is different than many counseling models which have a less collaborative flavor. In these models typically the therapist is the "expert" in the room and should not be challenged.

I am fully committed to my client’s success by helping them navigate through personal problems leading to overall growth and fulfillment. I use various therapeutic approaches that aid my clients with exploring both conscious and unconscious levels of thinking which contribute the healthier behaviors and positive outcomes.

Often people seek therapy because they have an idea of what is wrong and what they want to change in their life. Other people don’t know, yet they know that something could be better or is missing. If you haven’t been successful in what you seek, it doesn’t mean that you are weak or that it is not possible, or that there is anything wrong with you. Sometimes we know what the barriers are. Sometimes we don’t. Sometimes it is just a matter of looking in the right place.
