I consider myself a relational therapist and believe it is a privilege to sit with people while dealing with life's challenges. Through a multi-discipline approach, integrating the practice of healthy social-emotional strategies, relational repair and positive psychology, I assist the client in their pursuit of personal growth & resolution. I work with people of all ages, individuals, couples, and families. I have a unique specialization with co-parenting dynamics and children five and under as a trained Infant Mental Health Specialist through the Harris Institute of The FSU Center for Prevention and Early Intervention Policy.
I am a legal expert in the courtroom, specializing in the family court system. Bringing knowledge to help the family with traumatic & life-changing events, I practice child-parent psychotherapy to facilitate healing due to relational disruptions. I have expertise in working with trauma, depression/anxiety, grief, chronic pain, and collaborative family law.
I am a Certified Mental Health Intern Supervisor and trained facilitator in the Circle of Security parenting curriculum. Being an adjunct professor at Daytona State College, I have over twenty years' experience as a teacher for community professionals regarding social dilemmas and child/family issues. I am a doctoral student at Fielding Graduate University.
