As a licensed therapist in Florida with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship dynamics. I offer compassionate, personalized care for those struggling with self-esteem, social anxiety, communication difficulties, and life transitions.
My therapeutic approach is deeply attuned to individual needs, whether you're dealing with workplace stress, relationship conflicts, addiction recovery, or processing past experiences. I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their emotions, develop healthier coping strategies, and cultivate meaningful personal growth.
I have extensive expertise in addressing diverse issues including mood disorders, caregiver stress, young adult challenges, sexual health concerns, and chronic pain management. My goal is to empower you to build resilience, enhance self-understanding, and create positive change in your life.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
