About Dr.
I'm a licensed therapist in Florida with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. My work centers on helping clients navigate trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, stress, and family dynamics with compassion and cultural awareness. I specialize in supporting adolescents and young adults navigate the highs and lows of life. I also have deep experience working with adoption and foster care experiences, recognizing the unique complexities these journeys bring. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, evidence-based practice. I believe in creating a therapeutic space that honors your identity, values, and lived experience-one where you feel genuinely seen and respected. I'm committed to working with clients from all backgrounds and identities, and I bring intentionality to understanding how your unique perspective shapes your story. Whether you're navigating parenting challenges, processing past trauma, or working through relationship conflicts, I'm here to support you with authenticity and care. Taking the step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to walk alongside you. Read more Show less
