Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Pembroke Pines, FL

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of experience partnering with adolescents, adults of all ages and families. I am bilingual so I offer therapy in english and spanish.

I bring a compassionate, real-world understanding to therapy. My experience includes supporting individuals living with severe and persistent mental health challenges, veterans, people affected by addiction, and those navigating many other mental health concerns. I create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen and understood. Using CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and person-centered care, I tailor treatment to your needs and goals while helping you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward meaningful change.

You may be dealing with anxiety, depression, changes in mood, difficulty focusing, poor sleep, or simply feeling unlike yourself lately. Maybe you’ve tried treatment before and still have questions, or you’re considering psychiatric care for the first time and aren’t sure where to begin. At Harborline Psychiatry, we work with adults who want to better understand what they’re experiencing and take an active role in their care. We start by slowing things down, looking at the whole picture, and building a treatment plan that makes sense for you.

I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for patients throughout Florida. My approach is thoughtful and collaborative: we’ll consider your symptoms, history, concerns, and goals before deciding what treatment should look like. When medication is appropriate, I’ll explain the options and reasoning so we can make those decisions together.

Reaching out for psychiatric care can feel like a big step, especially if you’ve felt unheard or uncertain about treatment in the past. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, collaborative approach to your mental health, I’d be glad to help you find a steadier way forward.

If you find yourself constantly overwhelmed by "what-ifs", emotionally drained by workplace demands, or feeling disconnected from your relationships, your body and mind are telling you it's time for a pause. Anxiety, grief, and burnout often make life feel like a daily survival test rather than a life you actually get to live.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Certified Employee Assistance Professional (CEAP), I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, substance abuse, and workplace/career difficulties.

My practice is entirely online, offering you a highly accessible, convenient, and confidential space to focus on your well-being. I'm deeply passionate about what I do - getting to truly listen to your story, hear where you're coming from, and serve as a dedicated, supportive figure in your corner.

When I'm not working with clients, I'm usually following my favorite sports teams, diving into my passion for music, and spending time with my wife and our pets. I look forward to partnering with you on your wellness journey!

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I am passionate about creating a space where you can feel safe, supported, and truly understood. My work is rooted in compassion and connection, honoring your unique experiences while helping you move toward healing, balance, and greater peace within yourself. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, celebrate your strengths, and cultivate the meaningful change you’re seeking in your life.

I am currently accepting new clients. If you’ve been carrying a lot for a long time, you don’t have to sort through it alone. I work with adults of all ages to address past experiences, current concerns, and future goals in a welcoming, collaborative, and supportive space. If you’re looking for care that feels thoughtful, steady, and genuinely personal, we’ll create a path forward together.

Therapy with me is very human and genuine. I don’t just focus on what’s painful or stuck but help to highlight the ways in which my clients overcome life's punches. While I take this work seriously, I believe laughter can be healing and disarming in therapy.

I earned my Master’s degree in Counselor Education from Florida International University and have worked in a variety of settings, including the foster care system, residential treatment, and community mental health. My background includes supporting individuals navigating trauma, persistent mental health conditions, substance use, eating disorders, and major life transitions. I’ve also worked with veterans, individuals who are unhoused, and LGBTQIA2S+ clients.

In my practice, I work with clients experiencing anxiety, panic, depression, trauma, identity exploration, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I also support clients with PTSD, some OCD presentations, and concerns related to gender, sexuality, and queer identity. My work is trauma-informed, affirming, and rooted in helping clients feel both emotionally safe and genuinely understood.
