I love what I do, and I know why I do it. Since 2007 my focus has been coming along side of people and assisting them with challenges they face in life to become the most authentic and genuine person they were meant to be. In my own journey I've come to accept and appreciate the gifts I've been given, even if they're seemingly unrelated. I love my work as a therapist and I will always be passionate about performing music. How the two coexist within me is the journey I'm on. My focus has been in becoming a better therapist each day ... but I also know I'll never stop playing guitar and performing music, it's part of who I am. I have been singing and playing guitar forever. I have worked with a variety of people, with a variety of personal struggles, and a variety of ages. I am very passionate about understanding and helping people with the effects of trauma, depression, anxiety, anger, distressful emotions, and broken relationships. I believe that we all have inherent value, and I strive to truly understand my clients and give all of them the respect and honesty they deserve.

I’m a dual-licensed clinician (LPC and LMHC) with 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. After earning my master’s degree from the University of Central Florida in 2011, I’ve had the privilege of working across a wide range of clinical settings with clients spanning from preschool-aged children to older adults in retirement. My background includes providing diagnostic evaluations, assessments, and therapeutic support for a broad spectrum of mental health concerns—from depression and anxiety to schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. In addition to my clinical work, I serve as a Clinical Scientist, which allows me to stay informed on the latest developments in psychiatric assessment tools and evidence-based treatments. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma (including PTSD), and relationship issues. I believe a strong therapeutic alliance is the foundation for meaningful growth, and I work collaboratively with my clients to foster lasting change. I’ve been offering telehealth services for over five years and am committed to making the virtual therapy experience supportive, accessible, and effective. My counseling style is compassionate, client-centered, and empowering. I use an eclectic therapeutic approach, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Gestalt, Existential, and Psychodynamic techniques. I tailor treatment to meet each client where they are and to help set achievable, personalized goals. It’s been an honor to support hundreds of courageous individuals on their mental health journeys. I believe deeply in the collaborative process we’ll create together—and the meaningful insights and progress it can bring. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
