Feminist Therapists in Clearwater, FL

As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, my focus is assisting in healing from trauma, recovery from dangerous relationship, and addiction using forward facing, gentle healing and cognitive behavioral techniques. The foundation for my work is a feminist approach which means that we work together to move to a new and more functional place, utilizing strengths and resources that are both internal and external. I believe that we are all seeking Security, Empowerment, Love and Freedom-S.E.L.F. Through each one of these goals we can open ourselves to our own power.

Are you looking for a therapist with humility who is honest, compassionate, and knowledgeable? Are you looking for someone versed in LGBT+ matters, with a feminist leaning, and open to all lived experiences? Then we may be a perfect fit.

The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world, symbolizes the change in the perspective of self-realization. The kind of change that has its source in mental and emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life. We weave this meaning into the fabric of our mission and in the work we provide to every client enrolled at SHARE. Are you stuck or lost? Are you struggling with anxiety and fear? Are those intrusive thoughts derailing your days? Feeling disconnected from yourself or your partner(s) can leave you feeling unloved, undesirable, and alone.

Ultimately, my clients seek therapy because they have a genuine desire for personal growth and transformation. They understand that therapy can serve as a catalyst for positive change.

"I don’t need therapy." Sound familiar? What if I told you that therapy is for everybody, at any stage in life? Because, let’s face it - life can be hard, complicated, confusing, and messy. And you’re only human! You make mistakes and don’t have it all together. You may feel anxious, stuck, or overwhelmed. Your relationships may be strained, and perhaps you're feeling disconnected from your loved ones…or even yourself. Sometimes trying the best you can doesn’t feel like enough.

When you get to a point when you are overwhelmed, out of ideas and at a loss of hope, please know there is support available. As your therapist my goal is to help you achieve your goals, gain insight, encourage change, and create new connections. For my fellow clinical social workers who are ready to start their journey to licensure I am happy to be of assistance. As a Qualified Supervisor I'm here support your steps towards licensure. Take a step then dive right into the journey to your best self. Check out my website, call, email and please leave me a message and I will get back to you.

Are you experiencing feelings of anxiety, depression or overwhelmed by life? Is past trauma impacting you or maybe you've experienced a loss or family conflict? It can be difficult to manage these feelings, but you don't have to face them alone. Talking to someone may be the first step in your journey to help you heal. We can work together to help uncover your own strengths and find your natural coping skills. You will be able to meet life's challenges, and feel healthy and at peace.
