You may feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained, unsure why things feel harder than they used to. Maybe your thoughts won’t slow down at night, your mood shifts more than you’d like, or daily responsibilities feel heavier than before. You might feel frustrated trying to manage it all on your own, wondering if things will ever feel easier.
At Journi Alignment Mental Health, I help adults and older adults struggling with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders move toward emotional balance through personalized psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing support, offered via telehealth or in an outpatient clinic setting.
When you meet with me, you’ll find a calm, welcoming space where your concerns are heard without judgment. I take time to listen and understand your story, symptoms, and goals. Together, we create a personalized plan that may include thoughtful psychiatric evaluation, medication management when appropriate, and practical strategies to help you feel more stable and confident in your daily life. My approach is collaborative, you are always part of the decision-making process.
Over time, many clients begin to feel more balanced, more rested, and more in control of their emotions and routines. Imagine sleeping better, feeling less anxious, and having the energy to reconnect with the people and activities that matter most. My goal is to help you regain clarity, confidence, and peace as you move forward in your mental health journey.
With more than 30 years of experience as a clinical psychologist, I am passionate about helping adults and older adults navigate life’s emotional, psychological, and cognitive challenges. I provide psychotherapy, cognitive rehabilitation, and neuropsychological evaluations, with particular experience supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, memory concerns, adjustment issues, and the impact of aging or medical conditions. My approach is compassionate, respectful, and individualized, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to improve your quality of life.
I’m a psychiatrist who specializes in providing integrative care to foster inner discovery and facilitate tangible change for all of my patients. To me, this means utilizing evidence-based psychotherapeutic methods with medication management as appropriate for achieving personal goals and inner wellness.
I believe every person has the capacity to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Liberty University and bring experience working with individuals, couples, adolescents, and families from diverse backgrounds. As a bilingual counselor, I provide therapy in both English and Spanish.
I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, trauma, grief, life transitions, betrayal and infidelity, self-esteem challenges, and stress. I also enjoy supporting couples who want to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and deepen emotional connection.
My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. For clients who desire it, I can thoughtfully integrate Christian faith into the counseling process while welcoming individuals from all beliefs and backgrounds.
Welcome! I have over 25 years experience in helping individuals and couples improve relationships, anxiety, parenting struggles, narcissistic abuse, pain of infertility, and women’s issues. I graduated from the University of Central Florida and started out in community mental health before I began counseling at a large church followed by my current private practice. I work primarily with adults but also see older teen girls. Are you stuck in unhealthy relational patterns? Are you a stressed out parent or maybe you just need a safe place to process life. Reach out and we can chat about how I can help.
I know that starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you're already carrying a lot. I'm a licensed therapist dedicated to helping you better understand yourself and navigate life with greater confidence and clarity.
With over five years of experience in private practice and nonprofit mental health, I help teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. My background also includes research experience at FIU's Center for Children and Families and the THRIVE Clinic at the University of Miami Hospital.
I believe meaningful change starts with feeling heard and understood. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply feeling stuck, I strive to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where we can work together toward your goals.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida with more than 13 years of experience providing behavioral health services and community-based care serving diverse and underserved populations.
Before entering the behavioral health field, I proudly served as an active-duty United States Marine, including overseas deployments. The leadership, discipline, resilience, and commitment to service that I developed during my military career continue to guide my professional approach and dedication to helping others.
My experience includes providing direct clinical services, managing complex cases and focusing on creating culturally responsive, evidence-based services that improve outcomes for children, families, and communities.
I've seen a lot - from elders, to anxiety issues; to divorce, to bipolar patients.
lt's a challenge - and that's why I'm here - to help make humanity healthy again, one human at a time.
Now, go to therapy.
Seeking mental health care can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, mood disorders, and other emotional or behavioral challenges.
As a bilingual English-Spanish provider, I am passionate about improving access to high-quality mental health care for diverse communities and creating a safe space where clients feel comfortable expressing themselves in the language they know best. My goal is to build trust, empower healing, and support you every step of your journey toward better mental health.
Hello and welcome. I believe that healing happens through a connection of mind, body and spirit. My goal is to provide a supportive space where clients feel understood and empowered to create meaningful change. Drawing from a trauma-informed and strengths-based approach, I help clients identify patterns that may be keeping them stuck while building practical tools for growth and resilience. I believe in the strength of the human spirit and having the ability to reframe core belief's. Whether you are navigating a difficult season or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I would be honored to support you on your journey.
My experience includes mental health treatment, substance use treatment, eating disorder treatment, intensive family therapy, and grief work. I view each person within the context of their relationships, environment, and life experiences, and tailor treatment to meet their unique needs.
