English
| español Do you ever feel as if the distress in your life is unmanageable/unbearable? Do you find yourself lacking the support you need to navigate these difficult times in your life? Do you struggle to identify the steps towards a more fulfilling life? Have you wondered what it would be like if you felt like you had more options to cope with the things that cloud you as you try to accomplish your goals? Do you and/or your partner find your relationship might be in need of intervention and/or an objective perspective?
I have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I draw from different therapeutic approaches depending on your needs/goals. I have worked at UF, as well as different crisis-focused facilities. I truly enjoy working with couples and follow the Gottman style in my work. I have also been trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
Together, we can process your concerns in order to identify your needs/wants and how to achieve them. I provide a warm, caring, environment, and our therapeutic relationship is my main priority. I believe a collaborative approach is the most important factor in order for therapy to be effective. What I strive for is for our session to be your safe space.
