Welcome to the first step in your journey in self-awareness and personal growth! I am looking forward to connecting with you! I believe that everyone can use an objective and non-judgmental person to listen to them and assist them in working through issues and patterns that often keep us from feeling happy and satisfied with our lives. I provide a positive and supportive environment and utilize strategies from different modalities. My outlook as a counselor is strength-based, and I believe in building on our strengths, while recognizing our weaknesses, in order to reach our full potential.

Deciding to go to therapy isn't an easy decision, but it certainly is a courageous move. Our world often beats us down and tells us that we should be able to deal with struggles on our own. Fortunately, we are made to walk through life's struggles together. I consider it an honor to walk with you and to help you work through challenges that are keeping you from experiencing life the way you deserve. In therapy, I use a positive, strengths based approach to help you reach your goals.

Do you feel crazy around food? Are you critical of your body? Has movement lost its joy? If so, you're in the right place. I help clients unpack and heal their relationships with food and body. It’s possible (and easier than you think) to eat what you want, when you want it, and accept your body for what it is. We'll work together to find your freedom.

I believe crisis is part of living.How each of us survives and potentially grows from our times of life crisis, emotional trauma or injury , will shape who we are and how we approach our life path.Prior to beginning private practice, I spent 35 years as clinical supervisor and director of the Alachua County Crisis Center, I counseled individuals, couples and families as they struggled on their life journeys... Dealing with relationship issues, loss of loved ones, facing traumatic pasts and uncertain futures have often led to feelings of despair, anxiety , hopelessness ,depression and a sense of isolation and disconnection.

Perhaps you’ve felt like something’s been holding you back from living your best life. Or maybe you keep finding yourself in the same place despite your best efforts to make changes or sustain changes you’ve previously made. We all carry the baggage of our past, all of our hurts, pain, self-doubt, and fear, and survived it the best way we knew how. And although we’ve survived 100% of those worst days, surviving is no longer cutting it.
