I received my Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Palm Beach Atlantic University and a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Barry University. I am licensed in the state of Florida as a Mental Health Counselor and certified by the Florida Certification Board as a Certified Addictions Professional. I am also trained EMDR trauma therapist by EMDRIA. Offer Immigration Evaluations and Substance Use Evaluations.
My ideal client is one who is ready to be changed and transformed and open to the hard work of getting there. You are not alone.
I approach trauma and relationship coaching with a compassionate, client-centered mindset, honoring each person’s unique story and pace. My practice blends evidence-based modalities with real-world humanity: I meet you where you are, validate your lived experience, and collaborate to rebuild safety, trust, and connection.
I am the founder of Healing Waters Counseling, a private practice that specializes in grief and trauma, anxiety, depression, addictions and family therapy. Through a strengths-based lens, we explore how past experiences shape present unwanted patterns. You will find a warm and peaceful environment of pleasant therapists and helpful administrative staff.
