I like to listen to people and my goals are to develop strong rapport with the client, make the client feel safe and help guide the client to healthy decision making and functionality.
I am a mental health counselor licensed in Florida as well as Colorado over 13 years of experience working in profit and non-profit, residential and out patient settings. I have served clients struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, ADHD, eating disorders, alcohol and drug use disorders, self-esteem, addictions, trauma, phobias, communication skills, assertiveness, and goal setting.
My counseling style focuses on the importance of creating a safe environment to express yourself in a healthy way. To create this setting, it's my priority to create a healthy client-therapist relationship free of any judgement. Several clients have also told me they enjoy my sense of humor, so if you value humor, we may be a great fit.
:-)
I really believe most of my clients already have the answers, and I'm here to help navigate them through whatever storm is hindering them from finding those answers.
This is a huge step you're about to take, and I commend you for having the courage to ask for help. It's not easy seeking professional help, and whether you choose my services or not, I wish you success.

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.
