Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Milton, FL

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, weighed down, or stuck carrying things you rarely say out loud, you don’t have to do that alone. I work with people navigating depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, attachment wounds, and PTSD. In therapy, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and help you build a life that feels safer, steadier, and more like your own. Nothing is “too much” here, and you get to set the pace.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling to manage day-to-day stressors? Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, you are not alone. Together, we will create a safe space to help you reclaim your sense of self. We will work together to process your experiences without judgment, focusing on the practical tools and internal confidence you need to move forward on your own terms.

Facing life transitions, career challenges, retirement, relationship issues? Coping with getting older? Health problems?

I was in corporate America and Hollywood for 35 years. I'm a happy dad and grandfather, and a cancer survivor with an autoimmune disorder.

I get it. Life can be a struggle or a joy. I went to grad school at age 55 to learn how to help people like us live the life we want.

I am a mother of 4, a wife, and a 21yr active army veteran. I enjoy helping people in many capacities from mental health, life coaching, real estate consulting, and community service. So, if you are ready to embark on this journey, allow me to accompany you as a sounding board and guide. I’ll bring my compass and I can't wait to meet you.

With over 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families, I specialize in supporting people navigating LGBTQ+ identity, relationships, and the coming out process. Whether you're stepping into your identity for the first time, rebuilding after a difficult transition, or managing the stress and relationship challenges that come with trying to balance everything, you deserve a therapist who truly gets it. I bring warmth, directness, and a genuine investment in helping you feel more like yourself.

You don't have to have it all figured out to start. There is no right or wrong place to begin.

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 25 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I'm also a Certified School Counselor — which means I've spent decades not just in therapy offices, but inside schools, alongside kids and families navigating the real, daily pressures of growing up, parenting, and finding your way.

That breadth of experience shapes everything about how I work. I understand what it looks like when anxiety shows up in a classroom, when ADHD affects a family's daily life, or when an eating disorder hides behind achievement. And I know how to create a space where children, teens, and adults alike feel safe enough to actually open up.
