Hello! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and retired Navy Chief Petty Officer. I have a master's degree in counseling and psychology and over 14 years of experience as a therapist. I am currently located in Pensacola, Florida. My passion is providing individual counseling services to adults and teens. I specialize in helping people through many of life's emotional challenges, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and existential issues.
Many people face various emotional challenges, wanting solutions for the here and now. Anxiety, depression, trauma, and existential issues can be the biggest culprits. Those problems often stem from the past and may be rooted in generational family dysfunction. As a result, buried feelings, isolation, fear of abandonment, people-pleasing, and getting involved in unhealthy relationships become problematic. I specialize in various therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR).
If you feel stuck and seek relief, I will happily work with you and help you reach your full potential.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
