About My Clients
My ideal client(s) are adults, children, teenagers, and the elderly who are in need of mental health assessments and services and behavioral analysis assessments and services.
My Background and Approach
I became interested in therapy after I took my first Psychology class in college. It is fascinating to me trying to understand human thinking, feeling, and behavior, alone and with others. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology(1986) and a Master of Arts degree in Mental Health/Rehabilitation Counseling(1993) from the University of South Florida. I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida since 1997. For 12 years, I provided mental health services for children and teenagers with emotional and behavioral problems in the school system. Since 2004, I have had my own agency that provides mental health services and behavioral analysis services for the state of Florida's developmental disability program. I also provide mental health services for the elderly. For the last couple of years, I have provided telehealth therapy services for various populations. I have used cognitive behavioral therapy throughout my career in working with various populations.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe we're all in this together and that everyone in our world should be treated with kindness, love, respect, and dignity. I have tried to be this way in my life and career. I was a volunteer on the Veterans Committee for the Tampa Elks Lodge for over 8 years from 2016 to 2025. I am a cancer survivor and a volunteer for the American Cancer Society's Road to Recovery Program that provides free transportation for cancer patients to and from treatment.
