About Me
I graduated in 2009 from the University of South Florida with a Master of Arts degree in Counselor Education. I also have a BA in Psychology from the University of Florida. I am thrilled to be independently practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the Carrollwood and surrounding Tampa Bay areas.
I have experience helping couples navigate through relationship difficulties and infidelity. Through guiding couples with identifying unhealthy fighting patterns and replacing those with effective communication techniques, I help distant couples build stronger bonds. I also work with adult clients struggling with Anxiety, Depression, trauma, grief/loss, stress, work related issues, low self-esteem, and family conflict. I have over 10 years of experience working as a School Counselor and have a great deal of experience working with elementary and middle school aged students along with their families.
​
My Philosophy. Coping with stress, major life transitions, and loss are common reasons people seek out therapy. I am committed to providing a safe, supportive environment that will serve as a foundation for your inner healing. The active listening, empathy and feedback that are part of the therapy process can help reduce feelings of isolation and lead to meaningful change. I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, family systems theories, and solution-focused. I also determine the focus of treatment by what will be the best fit for each person and their situation.
