Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Fort Pierce, FL

My goal is to guide clients to improve their interpersonal relationships, overcome life stresses, and feel less depressed and anxious. With 30 years of experience, I view therapy as a partnership where client and therapist work together. If setting goals and having an accountability partner in reaching those goals resonates, I welcome the opportunity to work with you.

I am a licensed professional counselor with over 10 years experience working as a therapist, life coach and pastoral counselor. I have worked with clients having a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress management, relationship issues, parenting and family problems, career challenges, trauma, abuse and disabilities that include psychiatric and physical health issues. My therapy style is warm and interactive.

I’ve spent years sitting with people at their lowest—through addiction, crisis, and the kind of pain that can make life feel unmanageable. That work taught me something I bring into every session now: nobody is “too much,” and no story is too messy. These days, I’m more focused on slower, steadier work. Whether you’re worn down by depression, gripping through stress, or finally ready to be honest about drinking or using, I’ll meet you where you are with steadiness, honesty, and compassion. You don’t need the right words yet; we’ll figure it out together.

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.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Houston. I specialize in helping adults and older adults navigate workplace stress, family challenges, and emotional wellbeing. My areas of focus include career burnout, work-life balance, anxiety, depression, intimate partner violence, divorce, caregiving stress, and cross-cultural adjustment.

I believe every person carries an inner strength that can be uncovered and nurtured. In therapy, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can share your story, build resilience, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

I am a clinically licensed therapist who works with teens and adults. I support clients who are dealing with anxiety, ADHD, depression, emotional regulation, relationship stress, life transitions, and self esteem concerns. I aim to create a space that feels warm, genuine, and safe. I believe therapy does not have to feel intimidating to be effective, and I often use appropriate humor to help clients feel more comfortable while doing meaningful work.

A proud University of Central Florida graduate with a Master of Social Work, I have had a professional focus in various fields, including, child welfare, community mental health, the school system and intensive outpatient therapy. Much of this work has been centered on empowering youth, adults and families from diverse backgrounds and abilities. I currently work with children and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and life transitions.

I provide a comfortable and supportive environment in which we explore stressors, thought patterns and feelings that may be contributing to your challenges. Through a strong therapeutic relationship based on respect and empowerment, we will work together to resolve the challenges you are facing and to develop goals deemed most useful in moving you forward to a positive outcome.
