Therapists in Florida

**NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS** I am dedicated to empowering individuals to take actions that will move them closer to their goals and values. These values guided changes many times lead to an improvement in mental health and overall wellness. I have extensive experience implementing clinically tested and evidence based interventions . I have collaborated with clients seeking help for various concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and adjustment disorders. My counseling style is integrated and collaborative. I promote a supportive, nonjudgmental space for my clients that is conducive to values guided changes and self-awareness in my clients lives. My approach combines acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral, psycho dynamic and relational counseling. In many cases, it may feel difficult or overwhelming to identify our goals, and the actions needed to get there. It takes insight, willingness and dedication to move in the direction of a more fulfilling life. If you feel you are ready to make meaningful changes, I am here to support you during your journey. I look forward to working with you!

I enjoy meeting people and am interested in listening to their stories. My work is rooted in helping each person reach their goals.
