About My Clients

I work with high-functioning, motivated teens (12+) and adults across Florida who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, and chronic stress. Many appear successful outwardly but feel stuck in survival mode internally. I support clients seeking structured, evidence-based therapy to achieve lasting emotional regulation and relief.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and EMDR Certified therapist providing virtual therapy across Florida for teens (12+) and adults. I specialize in working with high-functioning individuals experiencing anxiety, trauma, chronic stress, and nervous system dysregulation. I integrate EMDR, CBT, and IFS-informed approaches to address the root patterns that keep clients stuck in survival mode. EMDR is an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain and nervous system reprocess distressing experiences so they feel less overwhelming. Clients often notice improved emotional regulation, reduced reactivity, and greater clarity. My style is compassionate, structured, and goal-oriented, helping motivated clients achieve meaningful, lasting change.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My work is deeply rooted in compassion, service, and a genuine desire to support the well-being of my community. As an active member of my local community, I regularly lead small groups and Bible studies and volunteer with adolescents in school settings. My faith informs my values of empathy, integrity, and meeting each person with respect and care. While I provide evidence-based, clinically grounded therapy, I am honored to thoughtfully integrate faith into the therapeutic process when clients desire it. My goal is always to create a safe, supportive space where individuals feel seen, understood, and encouraged in their healing journey.
