I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience in the field I specialize in supporting individuals navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, adjustment and the complex emotional impact of narcissistic and antagonistic relationships. I am also deeply committed to acknowledging and addressing cultural and racial experiences that often shape how we see ourselves, others, and the world around us.

My work is grounded in building trust and creating a safe, warm environment where you are met with compassion—not judgment. I believe healing begins when you feel heard, understood, and supported exactly where you are. Together, we will work at a pace that honors your story, personal experiences and your strengths, focusing on building emotional clarity, resilience, and empowerment along the way.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Estero

Searching for therapists in Estero starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to focus on. A therapist’s profile can help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.

Estero is a smaller community, so local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in nearby areas like Bonita Springs or Fort Myers. Virtual therapy can expand your options while keeping care tied to therapists licensed in Florida. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can show how a therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Estero can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
