Parenting Therapists in South Miami, FL

You are the most important part of your treatment, and it begins with a foundation of trust. Depression, anxiety, relationship stress, challenges with academic or professional growth... there are endless reasons to seek therapy. In sessions, I prioritize the development of a connection that feels comfortable and safe for you. Each person is unique, together we will find a way to customize the various evidence-based treatment tools so that they work in a way that affirms who you are.

Often clients ask me how therapy helps you to feel better, or make lasting changes in how you handle life’s curve balls. Relief from emotional pain and progress on changes you want to make is because of the unique, safe, nonjudgmental relationship that develops with a skilled therapist. It’s about the fit. You need to feel the therapist “gets” you and understands your world. And the therapist needs to have the knowledge and skills to work on what ails you. While I may not be the perfect therapist for every situation, I strive to understand every client.

The scientific evidence is overwhelmingly clear - real change is simple and we are far more powerful than we know! I consistently get to witness amazing humans go from feeling - confused, hopeless, and not good enough to clear, confident, and trusting. When we experience this transformation we find ourselves on a new path of developing a much healthier relationship with ourselves and those we love! My approach is sustainable and science-backed, and empowers those I work with to begin asking new questions, exploring new answers, and developing new ways of living!

I work in a way that emphasizes a deep understanding of oneself. Therapy is a place that gives you the freedom to think and feel. Your thoughts and feelings will be explored in a safe and empathetic manner. You will gain a greater understanding of your inner self and the filters through which you perceive people around you and the world. You will also comprehend why you think and act the way you do. Maladaptive patterns will be identified; change can then occur. I've been in practice with adults, couples, adolescents, and children as a registered mental health intern.
