- LCSW
A little about me - I earned my Social Work degrees from The Florida State University - Go Noles! My career started in the area of child welfare dependency services, foster & adoptive family training/support, VA/military services, and eventually mental health therapy and counseling with at risk children, adults, and couples. I specialize in challenges related to minority issues, trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, life transitions & change, family conflict, relationship/couples issues, anger management, and more. With over 10 years of experience I am truly committed to my clients.
Using evidence based modalities, you can be assured of my approach of being discrete, non-judgmental, and compassionate. My goal is not to 'fix' you, but instead provide you with tools to reach maximum healing! Open mindedness is paramount to meeting your individual and/or complex needs. Connect with me to sort out your emotional 'yuck'. Talk with you soon!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
