About My Clients

NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I work with adult women who feel overwhelmed by trauma, intense emotions, or cycles of anxiety that don’t let up. Many of my clients describe perfectionism, reactivity, or self-sabotaging patterns that strain their relationships and leave them feeling stuck. Together, we create a structured and supportive process to untangle these challenges, build healthier coping strategies, and move toward a life that feels grounded, balanced, and sustainable.

My Background and Approach

As a licensed psychotherapist, I specialize in helping women manage anxiety, chronic stress, trauma, and patterns of perfectionism or reactivity that interfere with work, relationships, and self-confidence. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), tailored to each client’s needs and goals. I believe therapy should be collaborative and practical—grounded in compassion but focused on real, lasting change. Sessions often involve building skills, reframing unhelpful thoughts, and practicing new ways of responding to daily challenges. I provide telehealth sessions throughout Florida, including New Tampa, South Tampa, Boca Raton, and Naples, making care accessible no matter where you live. Whether you’re healing from trauma, breaking cycles of avoidance, or managing high expectations, my goal is to help you feel calmer, more capable, and confident in creating a life that works.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe resilience develops through small, consistent steps—both in and outside of therapy. While insight matters, I emphasize practical actions that make daily life more manageable and meaningful. I continually expand my expertise in evidence-based therapies and research-driven strategies, bringing both curiosity and structure to my work. My goal is to help clients create lives that feel not only functional, but genuinely sustainable and fulfilling. If you’re ready to begin therapy, I offer a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit. I accept Medicare, Cigna, Carelon Behavioral Health, and I’m an approved out-of-network provider with TRICARE.
