I am a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern in Florida with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, specializing in Trauma and Crisis, from Palm Beach Atlantic University. I am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Counseling Psychology with a focus on Traumatology at Liberty University.
After being honorably discharged from the U.S. Army, I transitioned from healthcare to counseling to better support individuals battling addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. My passion for helping veterans and families through a holistic, faith-based approach continues to inspire my pursuit of higher education. In addition, I am studying Baking & Pastry at the Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts. I believe cooking and baking can serve as effective, experiential therapy tools to help individuals process emotions and express feelings, in a creative and mindful way.
With over 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I specialize in trauma, crisis intervention, and working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, substance abuse, sexual abuse, and grief/loss. I have obtained experience to work with all ages and enjoyed making a difference in my clients from a smile of a young child to a senior in the last stages of life. My approach is helping a client to see and be empower to a new life. A life full of new opportunities, goals and hope with empathy, leadership and kindness. My approach is rooted in evidence-based therapy (EBT), and I use a variety of modalities, including AEDP, CBT, DBT, EMDR, and Trauma-Focused Therapy, to empower clients in their healing process. I defined myself as an experiential therapist because life its about experiencing the journey of life without limits and with freedom. Let’s walk together the journey and let me help you find that freedom!
I am committed to creating a safe and supportive space for clients to rediscover their strength and achieve lasting change. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, loved, and accepted, and it’s my mission to walk with clients on their journey toward healing and personal growth.
Thank you for considering me as your guide on the path to healing. I look forward to working with you to achieve lasting, positive change.
