As the owner of Life Solutions Services, a practice dedicated to offering a comprehensive range of services—such as individual and couple's psychotherapy, medication management, and Discernment Counseling—I am proud to lead a team of skilled and experienced clinicians. I often tell new clients that it takes immense courage to reach out and begin their journey toward better mental health. By deciding to contact a therapist and schedule your first appointment, you are taking a significant step in regaining control over your life. I commend you for starting this journey and for taking the time to find a clinician you feel you can trust
Our main specialties are: relationships (couples, family), depression, anxiety, trauma, first responders/military, grief/loss, substance abuse and working with the LGBTQ community (particularly Gender Dysphoria). We only use scientifically based approaches like EMDR, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Discernment Counseling.
We are compassionate and straightforward and we believe therapy should be a collaborative relationship between the clinician and the client. We provide in person and online psychotherapy and medication management. Lastly, we can provide supervision to Clinical Social Workers in the state of Florida.
