Have you ever felt overwhelmed? Like the weight of the world was on your shoulders and you couldn't balance it. Have you ever felt numb? Like nothing in the world could make you feel alive. Have you ever felt disconnected? Like no one understands who you are. Have you ever felt that the only way to cope was to turn to drugs or alcohol? Like there was no way out of the darkness. If you answered yes to any of those questions, you are like the other 43 million Americans who struggle with mental health concerns; with over half also struggling with substance abuse. You are not alone, there is help available; there is a better way.

I will always meet my clients where they are at, and help them move towards a better tomorrow. My therapeutic approach is compassionate, honest, and direct. I have over a decade of experience in mental health, substance abuse, and couples/family therapy. And, I am currently registered as a Licensed Mental Health counselor in the state of FL and NC.
I know how hard it can be to take that first step to change your life, but I also know how fulfilling it is to shed the fear and self doubt that continues to hold so many down. If you are ready to take your first step; reach out to me by email in order to set up a free 15 minute phone consultation. Dare Greatly!
