About

I provide a safe, supportive space where adults and couples can share their experiences, feel heard, and work toward meaningful change. My goal is to help clients understand how their experiences have shaped them and use their strengths to heal, grow, and create lasting change. I work in partnership with clients to create intentional goals and a plan that fits their pace. I support adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, grief, and life transitions such as college, marriage, divorce, career changes, retirement, or relocation. Couples counseling focuses on improving communication, working through conflict, and strengthening connection. I believe in each individual’s strengths and capacity to grow, heal, and become all they were created to be. APPROACHES I USE My counseling style is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s needs. I use evidence-based approaches to support insight, emotional regulation, and meaningful change. For couples, I have completed Level 1 and Level 2 Gottman Method training and integrate Gottman approaches in session. I am also trained in Prepare/Enrich assessments for premarital and relationship counseling. For clients who desire it, I offer Christian faith–integrated counseling, thoughtfully incorporating faith into the therapeutic process in a respectful, client-led way. I provide both in-person and virtual counseling for private-pay clients. I believe in each individual’s God-given strengths and capacity to grow, heal, and become all they were created to be. CREDENTIALS I hold a Master's of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Palm Beach Atlantic University and I am a State Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I received a Bachelor of Science in Communicative Disorders from the University of Central Florida.
