About Me

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than a decade of clinical experience working with adults navigating periods of significant change, trauma, anxiety disorders, and persistent patterns of emotional or behavioral distress. My treatment approach is integrative and evidence-based, thoughtfully incorporating EMDR, cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and psychodynamic principles to meet individual treatment needs. My goal is to provide a supportive, collaborative space where you feel understood and at ease—somewhere you can explore challenges, gain insight, and begin making the meaningful changes you want to see in your life. As an EMDR-certified clinician, I offer focused trauma reprocessing for individuals impacted by adverse experiences, attachment-based disruptions, and deeply ingrained negative self-beliefs. Many of the individuals I work with carry longstanding feelings of inadequacy, self-doubt, or internal criticism that interfere with their sense of agency, well-being, and performance in multiple areas of life. EMDR therapy facilitates the processing of unresolved experiences that continue to influence present-day emotions, behaviors, and relationships. This approach supports clients in reducing psychological distress, enhancing emotional regulation, and fostering greater self-awareness and resilience. A strong connection between client and therapist is one of the most important factors in successful therapy. To help you get a sense of whether we’re a good fit, I offer a free 15-minute telehealth consultation—an opportunity to talk about your needs and see if my approach feels right for you.

Education & Experience

I hold a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology with specializations in Mental Health and Marriage & Family Therapy from Palm Beach Atlantic University. My clinical work has spanned community-based, residential, outpatient mental health and substance use treatment. In my supervisory roles, I’ve developed therapeutic programming and trained clinicians in evidence-based interventions and trauma-informed care. I’ve had the privilege of supporting many people in building lives that feel more aligned, grounded, and purposeful—knowing that no two paths are the same.
