I approach therapy from a relational perspective. I believe that we are shaped by our families, and continue to be shaped by our life experiences and the environment around us. Making connections, learning and healing from our past experiences is a pathway forward to creating a more fulfilling future. I work to help my clients do just that in order to develop better relationships with themselves and with others. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and also trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). I am certified in Relational Life Therapy and trained in the Gottman Method, an evidence-based approach to couples therapy.
My goal is for individuals and couples to emerge from crisis stronger, wiser, and with hope as we work together through the counseling process. Life’s challenges can provide opportunities for personal growth and increased understanding. Here you will be met where you are on life’s journey.
It is an honor and a gift to walk alongside clients through their most difficult journey, holding space for them and helping guide them toward the best version of themselves, living their best life. I am a collaborative therapist and strive to meet clients where they are each time they walk through the door, working at their pace in a safe and welcoming space where individuals and couples can work through some of their toughest challenges and concerns.
I received my Master of Arts degree from the University of South Florida. I completed my internship at Suncoast Center for Mental Health and The Tampa Jewish Family Center. I have experience working in a private setting and in Community Mental Health. Prior to my work as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I worked in Human Resources, as a School Administrator for a private Montessori School, as well as being a mom raising 2 amazing teenage boys.
The variety of my life and work experiences enrich my work as a clinician and allow me to connect with a wide variety of people. My areas of passion include working with trauma, life transitions, parenting and relationship issues.
