When it comes to finding a therapist, Orlando FL may seem like the place to be due to its higher population. But it’s not always easy to find the therapist that is right for you, even in more populated areas. For one thing, there are a number of therapeutic treatments available that are evidence-based and effective, but not all work equally well for different challenges. The therapy that you need may not be available in your area. In addition, it can be essential to have complete trust in your therapist and to feel comfortable sharing with them for therapy to be successful.
Online therapy through a platform like BetterHelp allows you to find the perfect therapist match. BetterHelp offers over 30,000 mental health care professionals who have experience in a variety of specialties such as treating anxiety or obsessive compulsive disorder, facilitating personal growth, working with teens, managing attention deficit disorder, and much more.
If you’re looking for someone to walk alongside you and help you to face life’s challenges, or to help you achieve personal growth, by filling out an online questionnaire at BetterHelp you will be matched with a therapist who meets your individual needs. And because the therapeutic relationship is so important, if for any reason you feel you need to change therapists, you can do so at no additional cost.
Self-doubt can sometimes get in the way of taking that first step toward improving mental health and wellbeing. If you’ve been thinking about trying therapy for stress management, or to focus on any other aspect of your wellness journey, then BetterHelp can offer you a way to find the right therapist to partner with you in facilitating positive change.

When life gives us the unexpected sometimes, we need support systems that may seem untraditional to some. As, a therapist, I welcome all the doubts that you may have to engage in the therapeutic process. Therapy is a partnership, meaning, I will be there to motivate and challenge you to arrive at the desired outcome. Most of my career has had a focus of working with individuals that suffer from dual diagnosis, trauma, and poor coping skills. Each treatment plan is developed personally for each individual meeting their own personal needs. My primary treatment orientation includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness. My interaction from beginning to end will also include trauma-informed care. My education path is via Lynn University of Boca Raton and Barry University of Miami Shores, Florida. I, thank you, in advance for letting me help you achieve one of your many goals in life, freedom from the bondage that is holding you from your peace!
