Together, we will identify goals you want to meet and I will assist in anyway possible for you to reach them! I am a core-emotional based therapist that wants to target the uncomfortable emotions and situations and teach you how to walk through the emotions rather than avoid or become reactive.

I have been practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in South Florida since 2010. Clients who have had negative experiences with therapy in the past have described me as “the therapist for people who think they hate therapy.” I have a laid-back style and I work collaboratively with my clients to ensure they are getting what they need out of therapy. My therapeutic approach focuses on the mind-body connection. I teach clients to evaluate how mood can be affected by food, sleep habits and physical movement, as well as genetics, thought processes, and trauma.
