Are you experiencing trauma symptoms and triggers throughout the day? Do you feel overwhelmed and jumpy at times? Are you experiencing emotions that you have difficulty controlling? Do you feel disorganized and stressed on most days? Are you a sensitive and empathic person who has difficulty setting boundaries in relationships and managing the stressors in the world? Or are you a therapist, nurse, doctor or other helper who is overwhelmed and stressed at work? I focused my dissertation on understanding compassion fatigue in private practice.

Life is to short to settle for bad relationships, suffer from low self esteem, anxiety, addictions or depression. But often, finding the "right" therapist" to help you resolve these issues, can leave you feeling like you are looking for a needle in a haystack. I have been told that I have a gift of helping others. It is my sincere desire to help you get the results you desire. By helping you clarify your goals, and then by keeping each session focused on steps toward that goal, you can achieve the change you are looking for. My style and approach to therapy is never a "one size fits all" but will be customized to fit your needs.

I help individuals and couples cope and move forward though anxiety, depression, addictions, career changes, life stages, and relationship concerns. I offer support as you clarify what is really important to you and how you want to progress toward the life you want. My primary interventions for treatment come from Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), a cognitive behavioral method. Rather than trying to push away your troubling thoughts, an effort that does not usually work, I help you change your relationship with those thoughts, to lessen their power and control over your daily life.

You look at your adolescent and wonder what happened to your sweet, happy kid? Your parent intuition tells you something is not right. There are so many changes, too fast. Adolescence is a stage of life that brings with it a lot of change, physically, socially, and emotionally. Whether your child is entering adolescence, in the middle of adolescence or at the end of adolescence, each stage brings its challenges. Not addressing issues presented with your teen can lead to risky behaviors. Most parents brace themselves and suffer through it, as does their teen but it doesn't have to be this way!

Life is full of transitions and sometimes we need help navigating our journey. Sometimes we need a safe nonjudgmental space to explore and work through our concerns, feelings or life issues. Sometimes we just need a quick affirmation that we are on the right path and other times we need help finding the way. My goal is to provide a space where every individual and couple feels heard, accepted and encouraged. I want to provide a personalized approach that helps empower you to have insight, make changes, overcome your life's obstacles and find balance in your life -mind, body and spirit.

There is a quote by J.R.R. Tolkien, "not all those who wander are lost". I think this is a solid descriptor of my life's journey. To the outside observer, I've looked similar to a vagabond as I've "wasted my potential" walking barefoot through Orlando serving the homeless, living in Brazil while working with at-risk children abandoned to the streets, and even more recently as I've dove into therapy with men and women struggling with sexual addiction and the fallout of effects upon their loved ones. I've wrestled with my own struggles and mental health diagnosis of OCD and now have the privilege of serving others.
