Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Sanford, FL

Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, addiction, or a major life change - you deserve support without judgment. My practice is a safe, compassionate space where you can finally say the things you've never said out loud. I've spent 20+ years walking alongside adults through their hardest seasons. As your sole therapist, I'll know your story deeply and show up consistently - with warmth, honesty, and genuine care.

I am strength base therapist who focuses on personal growth.

I’m not your typical therapist—and I don’t try to be. I’m warm, honest, and believe a little humor belongs in therapy when it fits. I specialize in helping adults navigate trauma, anxiety, ADHD, relationship challenges, and identity, especially when old patterns leave you feeling stuck or disconnected from yourself. My goal is to create a space that feels less clinical and more like a grounded, genuine conversation where you can reconnect with yourself, heal, and make room for more joy and ease.

Hi there! I am dual licensed in Florida as a Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT). I received my Masters from Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida and have been practicing for 13 years. I tend to work with older adolescents and adults in living more authentic lives and being the best version of themselves. I am compassionate, but also honest and direct. I guarantee I will challenge you, but you will feel and know that it comes from a place of genuine care and a desire for you to live your best, most fulfilled, and healthiest life.

Having been on the other side of therapy, I understand the vulnerability and courage it takes to engage honestly and authentically in therapy to find the best version of yourself and create a better future. I strive to make therapy a safe place for you to express, experiment, feel and learn so you can find and love your true self. That is a large part of the reason I will be genuine, I will be compassionate, but I will also give tough love and complete honesty to help you reach your goals.

I enjoy working with individuals who are curious, open, and motivated for change; individuals who are willing to look deep within and challenge themselves. My clients are eager to elevate and align with their true potential and purpose, but may have blind spots with repeating patterns that no longer serve them. They often seek out fulfilling lives and relationships with others, but may lack insight in the challenges restricting them from reaching their full potential.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe healing is about more than simply treating symptoms. It’s about understanding and caring for the whole person. I take a holistic, compassionate approach, exploring how your mind, body, experiences, relationships, and daily habits may influence the way you feel.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and stressors, drawing from my decade of experience supporting individuals and families in medical, mental health, and child welfare settings.
