Are you exhausted in a way that rest doesn't fix? Do you feel like you've spent your whole life holding it together — showing up for everyone around you while quietly running on empty? Oak Haven Therapy is a telehealth practice for women across Florida who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and finally stop just surviving. Many of the women I work with learned early to be capable, self-sufficient, and strong. They built full lives. And they've been carrying a quiet ache for a long time — a sense that something important has gone unattended, that a part of them never quite got what she needed.
Using a relational, trauma-informed approach, I help women explore the patterns they've been carrying, understand where they came from, and start — gently, at their own pace — to set them down. This work often touches on burnout, divorce and relationship loss, people pleasing, boundaries, identity, and the long reach of early experiences into adult life.
I also offer play therapy for children who need their own safe space, and parent coaching through The Parenting Haven for caregivers who want to show up differently for their kids. Telehealth only, available throughout Florida. Oak Haven is here when you're ready. A free consultation is a gentle place to begin.

My work is grounded in attachment theory, trauma-informed care, and a strengths-based approach — meaning we build from who you already are, not who you think you should be. For children, I use play therapy as the primary modality, meeting them in the language they actually speak. Every approach is tailored to the person in front of me.
