My extensive clinical experience with both professionals and families spans over two decades in South Florida, Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. I use a humanistic client-centered approach to assist clients actively seeking change within their lives. My clinical training and understanding of human behavior and development demonstrates the quality of work with both adults and adolescents in my practice. By creating a comfortable and safe environment, I assist clients working through personal and professional issues. I normalize counseling to not only treat, but educate my clients to find emotional balance and mental clarity.
I specialize in relational, behavioral, and emotional issues. My clinical background incorporates the social and emotional needs of all my clients. I not only focus on intervention and solutions, but the process is prevention to assist clients mental clarity and emotional healing. I treat men's mental health, professionals, executives and families & teens.
I pride myself in my direct and genuine approach, that is not only compassionate, but sensitive to my clients needs. There are no cookie cutter approaches to life and healing, making changes is necessary when what you’r doing is no longer working. Because of that, I am an active therapist and collaborate with my clients using a therapeutic-coaching modality.
