Hello, Heather here. LMFT in Florida & California. My mission in therapy is to create a space where you will feel safe enough to just be yourself. I understand how difficult it is to seek counseling, to open up and share your experiences and struggles with another person. Therapy is my passion and I have over 28 years providing positive, successful & attainable results with various clients.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, no matter what you do, the memories, tension, or sense of unease just won’t let up. Maybe you’re on edge, easily startled, or finding it hard to relax. Perhaps you feel numb or detached from the people you care about—or the past keeps intruding on your present through flashbacks, nightmares, or sudden waves of emotion. If you’re exhausted by the weight of trauma, distressing memories, or emotional disconnection, you are not alone. I work with adolescents, adults, and families to navigate the effects of trauma, post-traumatic stress, and emotional pain with compassion and clarity.
