Hello!

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor/Supervisor with over twenty-one years of experience supporting individuals and families. I earned my master’s degree in mental health counseling at Nova Southeastern University (2003). I believe that prioritizing your mental and emotional well-being is one of the most important investments you can make in yourself.

Let's work together and help you find your direction. My counseling style is highly consultative and coaching-like. It is typically non-directive, as I believe each client pilot's their own ship, but when the situation warrants, there is plenty of idea sharing and strategizing as well.

I have been practicing for 21 years and work with clients of all ages and various backgrounds. I believe that with a strong therapeutic alliance, we can mutually come together and help you find a path forward that suits you.
