I am a licensed mental health counselor providing individual therapy in-person and virtually. I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Florida and completed my master’s degree in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida.
After completing my undergraduate degree, I worked at a domestic and sexual violence center for three years, providing crisis and individual support to survivors and their children. During graduate school, I gained experience providing counseling in medical clinics and worked alongside adolescent and pediatric physicians. I am passionate about working with teens (13+), young adults, college students, LGBTQ+, and survivors of intimate partner violence and childhood abuse.

If you are seeking an alternative to traditional psychiatric care — especially after feeling broken, unheard, or powerless — I want you to know that change is possible. Life can feel like turbulent waves, and surface-level symptom reduction is rarely enough. Together, with or without medication, we will explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact, helping you replace external control with inner direction and discover the calm beneath the waves. My goal is to guide and empower you until I am no longer needed.
