I specialize in helping clients work through relational problems. One of the challenges I help clients work through is when one is in a relationship with another presenting with Narcissistic traits. When a client comes to me thinking something is wrong with them after being in such a toxic and emotionally abusive relationship, I help them find themselves again and realize they are not to blame. Helping clients understand they do not deserve to be treated like that is a way I feel most helpful.

Talking things out is good. Holding things in, is not. If you go to doctors for your body, then why wouldn't you go to a doctor for your mind? There is nothing wrong with working on your thoughts and emotions, in fact, if everyone worked on their inner world, we would have a completely different outer world. If you're ready to start working on your self, your relationships, or if you feel like you're not achieving your potential, then give me a call.

I graduated from University of Central Florida with her masters degree in social work in 2018. In April 2021, I received her license and is now a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings and I bring a history of hospital and school social work.

As a Florida Supreme Court Certified Mediator and Parenting Coordinator, I am trained to assist families who wish to work out the terms of their divorce or parenting schedules without the heartache and cost of litigation. I also provide forensic evaluations that help the court determine what is in the best interest of the children with regard to custody determinations. Parental Alienation is often a factor in these cases and professional determine can often be a determining factor in the outcome of these cases. I also specialize in anxiety, trauma and PTSD, & find great reward seeing my clients find peace emotionally & physically.

“I’m fine” is the one of most common lies we hear. It's ok not to be ok. We are often shamed for being broken instead of asked how we fell apart. For sixteen years I suffered from an eating disorder that ultimately inspired my studies to help others who felt anxious, depressed, and insecure. Trauma is a fact of life but it does not have to be a life sentence. Humans are very resilient. Artwork is just like our ever-evolving journey; we are always learning, growing, and surprised by life. My focus is primarily client-centered; however, I use an eclectic approach to meet the needs of my clients.
