Welcome to a compassionate space where healing begins! I'm dedicated to guiding individuals through the transformative journey of trauma recovery. With a profound belief in holistic healing, I combine evidence-based therapeutic modalities with a deep understanding of mind-body connection to support you on your path to healing. Trauma affects every aspect of our being—mind, body, and spirit. I employ a holistic approach that acknowledges the interconnectedness of these elements. By integrating psychotherapy with holistic modalities such as mindfulness, I create a tailored therapeutic experience that addresses the whole person.

Life can throw many different obstacles our way. By viewing my profile, I can see you are ready to regain control of your life and restore a positivity in every day life.

Welcome! Clients often come to the first session curious about the process of therapy, anxious to understand how we will approach their struggles, and wondering if they will ever feel better.

I wish for clients to anticipate sessions with confidence, knowing we will use the time effectively. My aim is for you to graduate from quality therapy feeling motivated, insightful, equipped, and resilient. That said, if life brings new challenges, clients are always welcomed to return for support!

Are you are realizing that the effects of past trauma, violence or abuse have left things a tangled mess? Are you struggling with how difficult experiences have affected your relationships? Or maybe you belong to a gender, sexual, or relationship minority (e.g., LGBTQ+, kink) and are looking for an affirming provider to support you through whatever life has brought you? I look forward to supporting you in gaining the knowledge and skills to navigate whatever stressors life has brought you.

You may be wondering if you really need a therapist, like why can't you just keep doing it yourself? But you know you feel depressed, anxious...sometimes you feel like you can't handle one more thing going wrong. Friends and family are great (or not!), but there's nothing like having someone completely independent that you can confide in without judgment. My clients know they can trust me, they feel safe. I'm genuine, and I believe everyone has goodness and worthiness underneath your depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, or addiction and the related problems.

Are you ready to take your healing to the next level? I specialize in working with creative, intuitive women who are looking for an integrative psychotherapist who can pull from all facets of life to empower them even further on their healing journey. We will identify and celebrate moments of joy along the way. I work best with women who would like to incorporate spirituality, body based healing, and any/all facets of life into psychotherapy. I can zoom out to see the big picture of how things in your life affect each other, as well as zoom in to help you identify small adjustments you could make to feel better.

I have been practicing as a therapist in Tampa Bay for over 20 years. I view each person as unique and the specific therapeutic technique chosen for the person depends upon the type problem presented and the specific needs. In the first session, problems are assessed and identified and goals are established and a specific plan to meet the goals is developed. My task as therapist is to teach the skills and knowledge needed so that my clients have the skills to be their "own therapists" when therapy is completed.

I understand that calling a therapist can be anxiety provoking. There is something inherently strange and nerve-wracking in talking to a stranger about your deepest fears and challenges. But this uneasiness does not exist in my office. I will not blankly stare at you as you delve into your personal history. You will feel heard and understood. During sessions, I engage and interact on an authentic, human level. I provide a safe place for you to reveal your troubles and will help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are seeking.
