Education and Learning Disabilities Therapists in Broward County, FL

•• Accepting New Clients •• Are You Tired of the Weight of Self-Doubt and Negative Thoughts? I know how it feels. That heaviness in your chest isn't just a metaphor—it's as real as it gets, a constant companion of self-doubt that shadows every step. You find yourself asking, "Why can't I shake off these feelings? When will this cycle of not feeling good enough finally break?" It's exhausting, feeling stuck in a standstill, watching life pass by, convinced everyone else holds the secret to happiness—except you.

My primary work is with children, adolescents, and their families, but I also work with adults individually. Primary areas of specialty include social skills training (I develop curriculum for social groups), and mood regulation within the youth population. I am a staunch advocate of focusing on communication; both verbal and nonverbal, as I help my clients improve their “emotional vocabulary”.

The science and art of clinical psychology provides a unique, personal space for individuals to rely upon when it seems old methods of coping no longer suffice for current day stressors. Based on current, scientific research, a nonjudgmental and compassionate approach, and a natural intuitiveness and empathy, psychotherapy can help others to learn how to access their own, inner wise mind that is capable of tremendous strength and transformation when education, support, and genuine care are provided.

The need to get unstuck along with the desire to create and maintain change are often what bring people into my office.

I have extensive skills with adolescents/adults/families yet conceptualize my role as guiding others to vibrantly re-illuminate their lives. My passion for psychotherapy stems from my appreciation for communication as a healing agent, intensified by my MSc. in Speech Pathology from McGill University. When challenged by traumatic medical events, I was struck by patients’ capacity to recover cognitive-linguistic functioning as well as purpose/identity. At Nova Southeastern University, I cultivated expertise in individual, family, and group counseling with sensitivity to language differences/disorders and/or multiple disabilities.
