About My Clients
I work with kids, teens, adults, couples, and families in Fernandina Beach, Nassau County, and across Florida online. Many clients seek support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, OCD, trauma, and relationship stress. Parents often reach out when their child struggles with behavior or social skills. Adults come to build coping tools, improve communication, and feel more grounded. Together, we create practical strategies to help you heal, grow, and connect.
My Background and Approach
My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by years of experience as a teacher, school social worker, and clinician. These roles taught me that real change happens when people feel truly seen, heard, and supported. I’ve worked with children, teens, adults, couples, and families facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, OCD, trauma, and relationship stress. My approach is collaborative, down-to-earth, and rooted in evidence-based practices. I often use CBT, DBT, play therapy, and strength-based strategies, tailoring each session to your unique needs. I believe therapy should feel safe, supportive, and approachable—whether we’re tackling tough issues, building coping skills, or even finding moments to laugh. I provide in-person sessions in Fernandina Beach and serve clients across Nassau County and the entire state of Florida through secure virtual therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe therapy should feel safe, approachable, and empowering. Everyone deserves a space where they can be authentic, explore challenges without judgment, and build on their strengths. I view each client as the expert of their own story—I’m here to walk alongside you, not in front of you. My role is to support, guide, and provide tools that fit your life, culture, and values. I believe in honoring diversity, advocating for inclusion, and creating a welcoming space for all identities, including LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent communities. Healing doesn’t always happen in a straight line, but with compassion, patience, and the right support, meaningful growth is possible. Whether in Fernandina Beach, Nassau County, or virtually across Florida, I want clients to feel respected, valued, and capable of change.
