Hi, I’m a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with over 20 years in healthcare.
I work with adults to navigate anxiety, depression, and life transitions using a supportive and practical approach.
My style is collaborative—I meet you where you are and help you build tools that actually work in your daily life.
You can expect a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to move forward.
I am a Florida state licensed Mental Health Counselor, a New Jersey state licensed Professional Counselor, a Licensed Drug and Alcohol Counselor, an Approved Clinical Supervisor and an Equine Interaction Professional. I have a great deal of experience in the treatment of addiction, dual diagnosis, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, behavioral issues, autism, relationship issues, and family conflict in adults and adolescents.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I utilize the person in environment mindset. You are so much more than your current circumstances. Life experiences, family, friends, and environment impact you as a whole person. Feeling anxious, trouble sleeping, relationship strains, and difficulty stepping into a new transition in your life can be overwhelming. I like to use the solutions-focused framework to help you utilize the tools that you already have in new ways.
I also hold an endorsement as a Certified Clinical Transplant Social Worker. This means that I have undergone additional training and experience working with the unique needs of medically complex transplant patients and their families. I aim to help clients through life transitions, anxiety, and women's health.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Fort Myers
Finding postpartum therapists in Fort Myers starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with perinatal mental health, maternal counseling, or support for new parents. A perinatal mental health certification, often listed as PMH-C, can also signal specialized training in care during pregnancy and after birth.
In a smaller city like Fort Myers, the number of local postpartum therapists may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your options while also fitting practical needs like infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns before you book.
Therapy in Fort Myers can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, estimate your out-of-pocket cost before booking, and offer direct scheduling. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book when you’re ready.
