Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Winter Park, FL

I became a mental health provider because I believe everyone deserves to be heard.

My practice is built on a level of clinical depth that sets my care apart: my background includes extensive hands-on experience in high-acuity inpatient psychiatric units, comprehensive outpatient clinics, and active service as a Mental Health Nurse in the U.S. Air Force.

At Mental Clarity Psychiatry, I take an integrative, unhurried approach to whole-person care, focusing on how your physical health, lifestyle, and unique life story impact your mind. My goal is to build a partnership based on true trust rather than just managing symptoms, combining clinical expertise with personalized guidance to help you find a sustainable path back to yourself. Please call 689-349-8700 for more information.

Life can be full of different stressors, which is where I can help. I will provide a warm, non-judgmental, safe, and interactive environment where we take on complex subjects, deep-seated traumas, or for you to say the things you've never told anyone before. I understand these are difficult subjects to speak about, and I will build a therapeutic relationship with you so that you feel strong enough to share. By doing this, we can form realistic and attainable goals to establish growth and promote healing. Remember that healing is not linear. The best gift you can give yourself is to master the chaos & find a way around it.

With more than 30 years of experience as a clinical psychologist, I am passionate about helping adults and older adults navigate life’s emotional, psychological, and cognitive challenges. I provide psychotherapy, cognitive rehabilitation, and neuropsychological evaluations, with particular experience supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, memory concerns, adjustment issues, and the impact of aging or medical conditions. My approach is compassionate, respectful, and individualized, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to improve your quality of life.

Welcome. I applaud you for taking this step to seek guidance to build your skills and coping methods for a more satisfying life experience. I have been a therapist for over 15 years. I enjoy my career and find it exciting to help others find a path to contentment.

I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment. I take a warm, compassionate, and collaborative approach, meeting you where you are and working together to understand what you’re experiencing and what you want to change. I know that reaching out for therapy can feel difficult, and I want my clients to feel heard, respected, and comfortable being honest. My goal is to help you gain insight, develop practical tools, and feel more confident navigating life and relationships.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with a master’s degree in Clinical Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida.

I help clients with anxiety, depression, ADHD, women's issues, stress, relationship and perinatal mental health.
