Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Winter Park, FL covered by Cigna

I am a pilgrim in progress, a man of faith, a student of people, a mental health counselor, and an avid lover of stories. I am grateful to have a Bachelor of Science in Religion from Liberty University, and both a Master's of Divinity and a Master of Arts in Counseling from Reformed Theological Seminary. Professionally, I have worked with individuals and families from a variety of backgrounds including: grief, trauma, gender and sexuality, addiction, faith and spirituality, anxiety, depression, and behavioral disorders (ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, etc.). I have served clients across a variety of ages, children to adults both in clinical settings and also in community (professional Christian ministry) settings.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming especially when you’re already feeling stuck, exhausted, anxious, or unsure of what you need. I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood, not judged or “fixed.” My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s really going on, feel supported through the hard parts, and develop tools that help you feel more grounded and confident in your life.

I work with adults navigating eating disorders, complex trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, relationship and communication difficulties, attachment wounds, and major life transitions. I’ve worked across residential, PHP, IOP, and outpatient settings, giving me experience supporting people through both acute challenges and longer-term healing.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and compassionate, while still being honest and practical. We’ll work together to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck not just manage symptoms, but understand why they’re happening and what you want to do differently.

You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. If you’re ready to better understand yourself, break old patterns, and build a life that feels more like your own, I’d be honored to help.

If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and more, we are here to support you. Seeking help and opening up to someone new can be intimidating, but it's a brave step towards healing. I understand the importance of a supportive and personalized approach, which enables me to offer effective treatment plans tailored to your unique circumstances. I treat a variety of mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep disorders, postpartum depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, OCD, among others. My extensive experience in a variety of mental health settings has equipped me to address both common and complex mental health needs with compassion and expertise.

I have learned through personal life experiences that finding the right counselor is crucial to the healing process. I provide individual and family counseling to adults, adolescents, and children.

I graduated in 2010 with a Masters of Science in Counseling and am currently dual licensed as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified School Counselor in the state of Florida.

Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, confusing, and difficult to navigate alone, but they can also be an opportunity for meaningful change. I offer an integrative approach to address the root causes of what you’re experiencing. Treatment may include medications when helpful, while attention to sleep, nutrition, movement, and social connectedness helps strengthen long-term resilience and well-being. Using a therapeutic approach, we offer space to explore patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools for change. I am here to help you feel better, live meaningfully, and thrive.

Hi there! I am dedicated to meeting each client exactly where they are, inviting them to "come matter here." I view the therapeutic relationship as a powerful partnership, where safety, support, and respect come together to inspire meaningful change. I believe in the power of laughter and often weave humor into my sessions to create a comfortable and inviting atmosphere.

I believe that everyone has an innate capacity to guide their own lives. Sometimes, we forget this superpower! I'm here to help you remember your own light and empower you to shine. I was an educator for over twenty years, and I have worked with diverse populations in many capacities. I will help you see your strengths and possibilities.

I love to utilize EMDR, psychoeducation along with other methods to help resolve the distress.

With a degree in Philosophy and Religion from Roberts Wesleyan College, NY and CACREP accredited Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University.
