About Me
Is this right for me?
Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed? Struggling to manage stress? Difficulties with relationships? Wanting to free yourself of the fear trauma has imposed on you? I can help you take that first step. I have vast experience working with neurodivergent individuals who often share challenges related to navigating a neurotypical world. Drawing from my own experiences, I am dedicated to helping neurodivergent clients work toward their goals of improving social skills, emotional regulation, and building confidence.
My Educational History & Approach
I hold both Bachelor's and Master's degrees in social work from the University of Central Florida. I have extensive experience counseling children, teens, and adults, including many individuals on the Autism Spectrum. Helping clients achieve their therapy goals is very meaningful to me, and I find it deeply rewarding. I have worked with clients facing a variety of challenges, such as parental separation, suicidal thoughts, grief and loss, self-harm, and trauma. Additionally, I have experience supporting individuals who are neurodivergent, have personality disorders, or experience anxiety and panic disorders.
I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to assist in healing the wounded inner child. My goal is to create a gentle and supportive environment where you can connect with and nurture your inner self at your own pace.
I believe that seeking therapy is a courageous and valuable step toward caring for yourself. My aim is to provide a safe space where you can feel comfortable being your authentic self. Ultimately, I hope to help you lighten the burdens, shame, and fears that trauma may have caused, offering you the opportunity for healing and growth.
In my Spare Time...
I love spending time with my two dogs and going to Tampa Bay Buccaneers Football games with my husband. I am also a massive Universal Studios fan and love attending their Halloween Horror Nights event.
