Therapists in Downtown, Clearwater, FL

As a former college counseling therapist, I connect well with kids, teens, and emerging adults adjusting to newfound independence and responsibilities. I work collaboratively with clients to adapt to these changes and find healthy ways to cope with concerns such as loneliness, low motivation, sadness, frustration, irritability, anxiousness, suicidal thoughts, and self-harm. More specifically, I work alongside clients who struggle to ask for help, worry they’re not “good enough,” or feel afraid that others will not like them. I hope to work with clients as they let go of worry, sadness, and self-criticism and experience the present.

I believe that each life event is experienced and processed by the whole person - mind, body, spirit, and emotion. Whether it's physical pain, emotional issues, or recent or past trauma, these events need to be addressed with the whole person in mind. It is my goal to lead each client towards attainment of optimal physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. I emphasize the need to look at the whole person, including analysis of physical, nutritional, emotional, social, spiritual and lifestyle values. I assist my clients in developing personal goals and the tools necessary to achieve balance and well being.

The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world, symbolizes the change in the perspective of self-realization.
