I work with adolescents (16+), adults, LGBTQ+, families, and couples. I also work with overcoming difficult family and/or personal relationships. My ideal client is someone who is willing to push themselves to be the best they can be by facing the hard issues. Their goals are to "live out loud" as I like to say and be their most authentic selves. The healing journey is not an easy one, but a rewarding one and I promise it will be worth it. I am located in Winter Park just off I-4 so I take clients from Altamonte Springs, Casselberry, Maitland, Sanford and Lake Mary. I can see anyone in Florida virtually as well.

Hi, I'm Harley. I understand what it’s like to struggle with sleep, battle anxiety, and feel caught in shame spirals. I specialize in working with adults who have experienced childhood trauma. If you live with a harsh inner critic and find yourself triggered in everyday interactions, I want you to know you’re not alone. These feelings and actions are trauma responses, and with the right support, they can be transformed. It can feel isolating, lonely, and hopeless, but there is hope. Together, we can compassionately work to unlearn these responses and build a life that feels safer and more fulfilling.

Whether from childhood sexual abuse, debilitating chronic pain or other life experiences, oftentimes we experience deep feelings of not being "enough" that shows up in different ways such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, & much more. Regardless of our identities, a lot of us are taught that vulnerability is a weakness and self-silencing “should be” prioritized. Avoidance of emotional pain can then become very natural whether conscious or not, but is costly to your physical & mental well-being. Want to reclaim your life from Anxiety, Pain, Illness, & Depression? Are you ready to heal your relationship with Food & Your Body?

Change and healing are possible. Whether you're feeling fearful, lonely, unfulfilled, or misunderstood, I will partner with you to work toward connection to your feelings, improved communication, and better understanding of yourself. It is not easy work, but you can do it. In my office, you will experience safety, curiosity, and non-judgement. You will learn to accept yourself, while learning new skills and healing old wounds. The world can feel overwhelming, but I believe you are stronger than your habits. Your past does not define you. You can choose to learn new ways to respond, rather than long-ago learned patterns of reaction.

So many of us long for a feeling of liberation from old patterns, habits, wounding and conditioning. To be free from thoughts/feelings stemming from pain, fear and unworthiness. To awaken from just going through the motions in life and evolving into the most authentic and empowered version of ourselves means we must first begin the journey of deeply understanding ourselves. To face ourselves with a radical honesty and acceptance. To lean into ourselves with a mindful and compassionate curiosity. To hold ourselves in the highest regard.

I enjoy working with Clients of all ages and a variety of struggles. I place a strong emphasis on the therapist-Client relationship because I believes it is the key to creating long-lasting change. I work from a person-centered approach that allows the ability to support Clients while they create their own change at their own pace. I go past the symptoms and instead help Clients discover and work through the cause(s) of those symptoms to affect true, positive, and lasting change. I have experience working with a broad range of Clients, including adolescents, adults and older adults.

Being a first responder to crisis and tragedies, you can only be the "strong one" for so long, before it begins to wear on ourselves and your personal relationships. You may be an attorney, a physician, part of law enforcement, or on the leadership team of your church. Who are YOU supposed to turn to? We work with many people in your same position, struggling with doing good for others, at the sake of your own family & self-care.

When we are no longer able to change a situation-we are forced to change ourselves,” noted psychiatrist and holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl stated. Life can present a myriad of situations where we experience growth, but at times not without pain. When those situations get unmanageable, sometimes an unbiased third party can be an excellent solution. Perhaps your relationship is on the rocks or maybe depression, PTSD, or anxiety have rooted in you. You don’t have to struggle with these symptoms forever, we can work together to better manage and overcome them.

Life is constantly changing. Adapting and integrating new insights, perceptions and ideas make up an important aspect of the human experience. Identifying a personal process to mitigate change can be quite helpful, especially when life's curve balls are thrown unexpectedly. As an adoptee, life long learner, career changer, mother, divorcee, and woman, I have found safety, support, solace, and understanding, in the therapist chair. In this season of my life, I am committed to creating a space and providing counseling services to those that may feel stuck in their human experience and are in search of liberating self discovery.
