I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with over nine years of

experience helping individuals navigate life’s emotional challenges. I have

supported clients through a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression,

stress, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, life transitions, and trauma. I

also have specialized experience working with mothers navigating postpartum

depression, anxiety, and the emotional adjustments that come with pregnancy

and early parenthood. My work includes providing therapy in homes,

community settings, and virtually—meeting clients where they feel most

supported.

I believe you are the expert of your own story, and your God-given

strengths—whether fully realized or still emerging—can guide your healing

journey. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empathy, faith, and

respect. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I commend you

for choosing healing. You do not have to walk this road alone.

Therapist

I believe therapy works best when clients feel safe, heard, and genuinely supported. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative environment where clients can show up as their authentic selves. My approach is compassionate, direct when needed, and focused on helping clients build practical tools for everyday life while also exploring deeper emotional patterns and experiences.

I enjoy working with individuals navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship concerns, self-esteem challenges, stress, identity exploration, and emotional overwhelm. I am passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients and creating an affirming therapeutic space where clients feel respected and understood.

I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and my goal is to meet clients where they are while helping them move toward healing, clarity, and meaningful growth.
