About Me

I believe in using evidence-based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) to help target any maladaptive behaviors, thoughts, emotions, and traumas that are impacting your life. I believe in taking a collaborative approach to help you reach your goals. I allow individuals space to candidly discuss concerns while maintaining the highest level of confidentiality and anonymity. My approach is direct, clear, and practical with no judgments or shame. Health Psychology Over the years I have specialized in treating individuals with generalized anxiety, depression, chronic medical conditions, and trauma. I also spent several years working in a bariatric clinic, and I continue to enjoy helping individuals prepare for bariatric surgery or adjust to life post bariatric surgery. Pregnancy and Postpartum In my time at the hospital I have worked with new and expectant mothers in the hospital and in an outpatient based setting, and have advanced training in pregnancy, postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, and postpartum trauma and loss. Executive Therapy and Career Burnout Over the years I have also worked with many executives, physicians, attorneys and other professionals to manage work-life balance and matters related to mental health. Virtual and In-Person Therapy I am currently offering telehealth sessions to anyone located in the state of Florida, and I also provide in-person sessions in South Tampa.

I accept Aetna insurance, and if you do not have Aetna I can provide superbills that you can submit to your insurance for out of network reimbursement.
