Hello! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with relationship concerns, family conflicts, and parenting issues. I work with couples to repair trust, improve communication and respect, and strengthen their emotional intimacy with each other. I'm a member of the LGBTQ+ community and have experience with the discrimination and barrier issues within this population. I also have 26 years of experience with the military life, and understand the struggles with deployments, change in family dynamics, and transitions in roles.I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. You are the expert of your story and you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. My therapeutic style is more solution-based, and I enjoy making goals and setting expectations. I also use behavioral therapy, and self-management techniques.I'll tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique & specific needs. I'll ask questions to gain insight to presenting problems & understand who you are as an individual/family. Subsequent sessions involve goal setting & intervention. I'd love to help w/coping skills, self-care techniques, and alternative ways to better aid you in a healthier life.Message to clientsI love helping people! I specialize in maladaptive behaviors, military life, LGBTQ community, family conflicts, parenting issues, relationship concerns, and couples counseling. I use behavioral therapy, solution-based therapy, and REBT in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. I offer therapy sessions in-person, on the world's softest sofa, or online via video. I'm available most weekdays and in the evenings.
