I am now licensed in FL & TX! If you are struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, trauma, feelings of hopelessness &/or lack of faith, anger domestic violence/sexual abuse, mental & verbal abuse, if you are a victim of human or sex trafficking, substance abuse, suicidal thoughts &/or self-injurious behaviors, and you need guidance in 'transitioning your thoughts, behaviors, and way of living' because the way you have been living is draining you of substance (literally, financially, mentally & spiritually) - I can help! It's NOT over! Let me Empower you to your Next Evolution!
I offer inspirations and empowerment to evolve into a healthier version of yourself - body, mind, soul and spirit. This is done by introducing you to Healthier Perspectives, Healthier Solutions (Solution-Focused Therapy), Challenging Irrational Thinking Habits (Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy) and assisting you in building on your individual strengths.
