Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists in Ponte Vedra, FL

Currently accepting new clients! EMDR Certified. Today we live in a challenging world and the experience of feeling stressed and overwhelmed is a familiar state. It’s important to find a therapist that you can connect with and feel safe. I have over 19 years of experience and training in mental health, working with individuals, families, and couples to help process and manage trauma, anxiety, depression and adjustment. I have experience/specialized training working with PTSD, Veterans, TBI, Domestic Violence, sexual abuse, Substance Use Disorder, Anxiety and Depression.

I've had the honor serving Michigan and Florida for 12 plus years working with children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly. I've provided individual therapy, group therapy, skills training, and case management to our community youth and adults, including those with Special Needs. I have started up 2 successful mental health programs in the city of Detroit. I now work in a small private practice to continue my passion of providing therapy and behavior modification to the community. Currently I am only providing individual therapy via Teletherapy/Video Counseling. It is truly an honor to be here for you.

Are you a so-called empath, overachiever, perfectionist or riddled with anxiety? Has life all just become a little too much and you need some space to process it? Boy, isn’t that the truth. Do you or someone you love have a brain health challenge? Parkinson’s disease, traumatic brain injury/concussion, mild cognitive impairment, multiple sclerosis, ADHD, problems with concentration or memory? Good news. I’m a board-certified neuropsychologist and we can handle that together. I know what these challenges mean - scientifically, and how they affect your day-to-day and relationships.

Every person goes through a period in their life where they desire to make changes, face difficulties, find the courage to challenge themselves, or simply find that their old ways are no longer serving them in their life. I take the time to understand each client in order to tailor their treatment to their uniques circumstances. In my practice I thoroughly believe that a connection between therapist and client is the foundation for healing and change. It is an honor to provide the services that I do. My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental safe place for healing.

I am an interactive, solution focused clinical psychologist with a treatment approach providing support and practical feedback to help you address your current life challenges or long-standing issues. With compassion and understanding, I will help you solve your problems. I have a Master's degree in Child Clinical Psychology with a cognitive-behavioral orientation and a Doctor of Psychology degree with a psychodynamic orientation. I draw from my extensive education, training, & practical experience to design an individualized, collaborative treatment plan. Call or e-mail me today!

I am a trained ART Therapist. Accelerated Resolution Therapy is a form of psychotherapy with roots in existing evidence-based therapies. Which has shown to achieve benefits much more rapidly usually within few sessions? Clients with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, (PTSD) substance abuse, sexual abuse and many other physical conditions. My ideal client is one who is striving to make a change. In order for this to occur, there must be cooperation and mutual respect between all parties. I will also work with those who are unable to express their feelings & thoughts and who have built these up due to the stigma regarding mental health.

I am excited to announce that we are now able to schedule additional patients for therapy appointments! Give our office a ring to get scheduled with one of our fantastic therapists!

I believe that everyone deserves an environment where they feel comfortable enough to discuss their beliefs and feelings without judgment. I apply several theoretical orientations such as, but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Family Systems Theory in my practice to best meet my clients' individual needs. I work on building a strong therapeutic relationship using empathy and non-judgmental, goal-oriented approaches which assist client's treatment outcome.

If you value a holistic approach addressing body, mind and spirit, I offer a safe and caring environment that is down to earth and practical. Our sessions will call you to personal responsibility and commitment to make changes that enrich your life. Discover tools and strategies that will empower you. Learn to change your thinking, manage your emotions, act from your values and live a life that reflects your best self. Whatever the past, healing is possible, the present precious and the future is yours to create.

Compassion and comfort during our most difficult times offer us healing and peace when our world is turned upside down. Here is a gentle reminder that having someone to express yourself and to voice your frustrations can transform a crisis into a calming and beautiful day. Your presence and peace of mind is the most important gift you can offer yourself weekly, biweekly, or monthly. Therapy sessions are affordable for you when using insurance, EAP coverage, or need self pay options. You can book appointments at your convenience to get started or send an email to schedule an appointment. I accept clients of all ages and ethnicities.

Whatever you are dealing with does not define who you are! Sometimes life throws us in unforeseen directions and your mental state doesn't have to pin you down. I provide an open, safe space to work together as a team. My primary experience surrounds depression, anxiety, and trauma. Together we will figure out your goals and ways to help get you back to where you want to be.
