Geriatric and Seniors Therapists in Merritt Island, FL

My professional career spans more than 15 years’ experience providing direct bio-psycho-social-diagnostic evaluation and treatment planning client/patient-centered services with clinical practice specialties that include: integrative assessment, addiction(s) & substance abuse screening/treatment/relapse-prevention, dual-diagnosis treatment, psychoeducation, and psychotherapeutic services representing multiculturally diverse adolescents, adults, and the geriatric population(s). I am CAP/CADAC Certified and a National Health Service Psychologist.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I have many years of clinical and private practice experience with children and adults. I counsel individuals, couples, families, and groups to promote optimum mental and emotional health. I enjoy helping individuals, couples, families, and groups develop a personal and/or developmental plan to implement positive influences in their life, while evaluating broad or specific issues such as: addictions, substance abuse, family dynamics, parenting, marital problems, stress management, self-esteem, aging, as well as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Telehealth visits are now available. I have been providing counseling to individuals, couples and families since 1998. I have worked with clients from age 5 to 81 in addressing problems with mood and behavior, as well as relationships, and vocational problems. I practice a person-centered approach to your concerns, identify your goals and create a plan to achieve those goals. We may also use strategies from other therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and brief solution-focused therapy.

Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Or do you just have questions or doubts about where your life is going? Whether life feels like a crisis or a circus I am here to help!

At its root, therapy is about awareness and using new awareness to make healthy changes. As a professional counselor, my desire is to inspire and empower clients to optimally manage their spiritual, mental, and physical health individually and relationally. As a survivor, I support a survivor mentality, acknowledging and honoring negative life experiences and feelings yet consistently seeking solutions rather than existing in problems. I enjoy pursuing innovative therapeutic techniques and proactively employing these techniques to support my clients' ultimate health and wellness. I appreciate the value of counseling but I also work to make counseling affordable and accessible.

I am a licensed therapist in network with Aetna and other insurance providers with significant experience working with people who have or are suffering from narcissistic abuse and who are trying to rebuild their lives as a result. I also have significant experience working with people with ADHD and adults on the autism spectrum. I am a Certified Mental Health & Nutrition Clinical Specialist (CMNCS) and enjoy working with clients who are struggling with anxiety, chronic illness, emotional eating, weight loss issues and want to align their physical and mental health through nutrition, proper sleep and self care as well.

Does life become overwhelming and out of control at times and that feeling of being in control seems to goes out the window? Together we can identify what's not working and get to an appropriate balance in your life. I utilize a mindfulness based approach applying deep breathing relaxation exercises to help you develop a strong relationship with yourself and others that affect your personal and professional life. My practice is based on how to learn about your unique strengths and the natural capabilities you have. Whether you are dealing with overwhelming relationships or cycles of anxiety or depression, I am here to help.

Feeling overwhelmed, having feelings and thoughts that are hard to handle. I can help. In today's world, sometimes it's all overwhelming and we just need someone to listen and help. I'm here for you. Together we will work through the stressors and explore ways to cope and/or resolve the problems or concerns that have you struggling. Through GL counseling telehealth I work hard to create a climate of warmth, trust, and openness to foster healing and insight.
