11 years offering treatment
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience the last 3 of which have been with Better Help. I graduated with my Master’s of Science Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Stetson University on 2013. Since receiving my degree, I have worked with clients in their teens up to late adulthood. I have helped individual clients addressed a wide range of challenges, including but not limited to, depression, anxiety, anger management, career challenges, ADHD, Trauma, Domestic Violence, Addiction, Communication, Boundaries, Infidelity, grief, and loss. In addition to individual therapy, I have experience helping couples improve and work on relationship issues, communication and recover from infidelity. While I do not engage in couples counseling through Better Help, this experience can help me help individuals gain a greater understanding and perspective of what there partner may be experiencing or going through which can help create strategies to navigate relationship challenges. I have also helped families improve communication, address parenting problems and parent child relationships. I take an eclectic approach to therapy drawing from various theoretical perspectives. This allows me to meet my clients where they are and work in collaboration with them to identify appropriate goals and objectives to work towards to allow them to overcome the challenges that may be holding them back from having their best life.

Welcome! I am a mental health counselor, licensed in Florida and have been providing psychotherapy services for 7 years. I have worked with people who are experiencing many different issues, which have all led them to seek assistance with changing their mindset, their responses, and their overall mental health. This includes issues such as depression, anxiety, anger, low self esteem, and impulsivity. Additional issues in which I have specific training and certification are unresolved grief and loss, substance abuse and addiction, and trauma. My therapy approach is based on getting to know each client as an individual; I don't believe in "cookie cutter" approaches to therapy and as we work together, I will build a treatment plan suited to your individual needs. I use a combination of therapy styles including narrative, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), psycho-dynamic, and dialectical-behavioral ( DBT). My therapy style is compassionate and empathetic, and I believe in treating others with respect and understanding. When life gets out of balance, we all respond differently, and often need help. It takes courage to reach out and take the first step to change. That is where the therapeutic relationship starts and I am ready to listen and support you. I look forward to working with you!
