Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern in Jacksonville, FL

About My Clients

I’m someone who believes in meeting people where they are—with warmth, curiosity, and zero judgment. If you’re going through a tough time or just feel stuck, I’m here to support you in sorting through what’s going on and finding a way forward that feels right for you. Together, we’ll work on developing practical tools that fit your life—so you can feel more empowered, grounded, and aligned with who you are.

My Background and Approach

I became a therapist after working with trauma-exposed and underserved communities—and witnessing how powerful it can be when people feel truly seen and supported. That experience still grounds my work today. Since 2009, I’ve worked in a range of settings—mental health clinics, schools, colleges, and hospitals—supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. I hold a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Long Island University and a Bachelor of Science from Georgetown University. My approach is collaborative, flexible, and centered on your needs. I use a blend of evidence-based practices, including CBT, EMDR, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and person-centered techniques. I truly believe that therapy can be a space where change begins—not because you need to be “fixed,” but because you deserve to feel well and whole. Life doesn’t have to just happen to you. You have the power to shape what comes next.
