No intimacy? Infidelity? Addiction? Relationships are complicated! We know how overwhelming and painful communication and other challenges that emerge in intimate relationships can be. We also know the potential for change, growth, and connection that is possible in working through these issues with professional support. We use techniques based on the cutting-edge of relationship and neuroscience research to help make sense of communication breakdowns and patterns of conflict. We are passionate about diversity and inclusion and provide care through a multicultural, attachment-based, gender-affirmative, and trauma-informed lens.

Almost everyone can benefit from counseling! Whether you're looking to sort through challenging emotions or experiences, improve your relationships, explore areas for personal growth, or develop skills to cope with stress, it helps to talk with someone whose only goal is to empathetically support you in making the changes you seek. Those who have experienced trauma often have difficulty regulating their emotions, building meaningful relationships, and coping with stress, and they tend to find that substances like alcohol and other drugs make hard things easier. These are not character flaws; this is a reasonable response to trauma.

You feel like you are drowning. Every day you wake up feeling overwhelmed by the number of things you have to do. On the outside, you smile and pretend you are okay but inside you feel on the edge of falling apart. Your mind is constantly running and you can’t turn it off. You have a deep desire to be the best human you can be. That desire leads you to doing all of the things yet unable to do anything to completion - even small tasks. You are doing your best but it's never enough...it doesn't feel good enough and you are so tired.

Grief and loss, childhood emotional neglect, domestic violence, and many other challenges and transitions in life affect how we see ourselves and the world we live in. It can lead to powerlessness, hopelessness, unspeakable pain and suffering, shame, emotional upheavals, and/or loss of sense of security. Yet all we seek is the ability to find peace, acceptance, and a strong connectivity with ourselves that lead to better connections with others. We want to be able to clear our view to ultimately see our deeper and meaningful purpose in life. I believe we have the innate capacity to achieve these.

From daily stress, feelings of emptiness, traumatic experiences, or even relationship problems, we can get bogged down under the weight of these problems and struggle to find our way through.

I have been working with both adolescents and adults for more than a decade and still love my job. Being a licensed therapist is actually my third career choice that followed careers in Oceanography and Motorsports. Although the first two careers were exciting, having the opportunity to help people heal makes this career the most rewarding. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from the University of Florida (1985), a Master of Marine Science from University of South Florida (1996) and Master of Arts in Counseling from Liberty University (2007).
