I have a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Jacksonville University. I’ve been at Wekiva Springs Center since 2022, and have experience with patients all over the spectrum from mood disorders, to substance abuse disorders, anxiety, PTSD, and psychotic disorders.
You deserve a life that isn’t defined by guilt, anxiety, or the pressure to be everything for everyone.
Many of my clients are exhausted from being the responsible one. They're the problem-solver, the caretaker, the one who keeps it together. Everyone seems to need something from them, and somehow they're expected to handle it all without dropping a ball.
Meanwhile, they're battling anxiety, self-doubt, guilt, overthinking, relationship stress, or the feeling that they've lost touch with themselves somewhere along the way.
As a bilingual English and Spanish therapist, I work with people who are ready to stop running on autopilot and start understanding what's actually keeping them stuck. Therapy with me isn't about pretending everything is fine or endlessly talking in circles. It's about understanding yourself more deeply, learning new ways of responding to life's challenges, and creating meaningful change.

I specialize in depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, substance use, and men's mental health. As a clinical mental health therapist, I understand the particular weight that comes with seeking help and the cognitive distortions that may keep one from getting help --Catastrophizing: Seeing only the worst possible outcomes of a situation. My clients often come to me having tried everything else, or feeling like therapy 'isn't for them.' I aim to change that experience from the first session.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Deland, FL
Searching for therapists in Deland starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and populations served. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and approach care.
In a smaller city like Deland, local in-person options may be more limited, so virtual therapy can expand the number of therapists available to you across Florida. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare approach, background, and fit in one place.
Therapy in Deland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists, check whether your insurance is accepted, see estimated costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
