Education & Experience

I earned my Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling at Stetson University in 2007, earning licensure in 2012. I have provided services to benefit clients by implementing evidence-based approaches specific to client needs and presenting challenges. I provide specialized therapy for clients with a significant history of trauma, depression, and anxiety. I have been trained as an EMDR therapist, I am existentially based and client-centered. I offer 19 years of experience in the helping profession and working with individuals from various walks of life. I am grounded in an existential clinical approach, I am very well rounded in addictions treatment, and spent years assisting clients to heal their traumas through Inner Child work, implementing 12 Steps Recovery concepts, CBT, and EMDR, among many other clinical approaches. In 2017 I was named the Clinician of the Year by the Florida Alcohol and Drug Abuse Association (FADDA) I have served my community through volunteering my professional services to the Wounded Warrior Project and the Gratitude America Program for veterans. If you are looking for a clinician that will challenge you to be your best self, be present and walk through the journey of healing with you and offer you a place of acceptance and emotional comfort, I am the one for you.
