Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, trauma, or difficult life transitions begin affecting your relationships, confidence, and ability to enjoy everyday life. You may feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, or uncertain about how to move forward. You don't have to carry those struggles alone, and meaningful change is possible. I partner with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, cultural and ethnic issues, women's issues, and trauma so they can build confidence, strengthen relationships, and create a greater sense of balance and emotional wellbeing. Working with adolescents and adults in both English and Spanish, I strive to create a welcoming, culturally responsive environment where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to grow.
I am a dedicated Nurse Practitioner with a strong background in mental health and primary care, committed to providing compassionate, patient-centered care. I earned my advanced practice degree from Wilkes University and have experience working with diverse populations across various clinical settings.
My approach is collaborative and holistic—I believe in treating the whole person, not just symptoms. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and life transitions. I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.
I utilize evidence-based treatments, including medication management when appropriate, and incorporate supportive and solution-focused approaches tailored to each individual’s needs. My goal is to help clients achieve stability, improve daily functioning, and enhance their overall quality of life.
I understand that seeking help can be a big step, and I am here to support you throughout your journey with respect, empathy, and professionalism.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Sanford
Finding therapists in Sanford starts with knowing what kind of support and fit you want. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress. As you compare Sanford therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match your needs. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and approach care.
Sanford is a smaller city, so nearby in-person options may vary by neighborhood and schedule. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Florida. As you narrow your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare approach, availability, and fit in one place.
Therapy in Sanford can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
