Hello, and welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based care. My practice focuses on supporting young and middle-aged adults experiencing depression, trauma, anxiety, ADHD symptoms, and life transitions, as well as working mothers and new moms balancing the demands of family, career, and personal well-being.
I know that starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you're already carrying a lot. I'm a licensed therapist dedicated to helping you better understand yourself and navigate life with greater confidence and clarity.
With over five years of experience in private practice and nonprofit mental health, I help teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. My background also includes research experience at FIU's Center for Children and Families and the THRIVE Clinic at the University of Miami Hospital.
I believe meaningful change starts with feeling heard and understood. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or simply feeling stuck, I strive to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where we can work together toward your goals.

I’m glad you’re here. Life can feel heavy sometimes, and you don’t have to figure everything out on your own.
I work with adults of all genders who are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, grief, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Maybe you’re constantly overthinking, having a hard time setting boundaries, carrying things from your past, or simply feeling stuck and ready for something to change.
Therapy with me is a space where you can show up as you are without judgment or pressure to have all the answers. Together, we’ll work on understanding what’s holding you back, building confidence, developing healthier ways to cope, and helping you feel more like yourself again.
You deserve to feel heard, supported, and hopeful about what comes next.
I know reaching out for help isn’t always easy. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, feeling overwhelmed, or simply not feeling like yourself, my goal is to provide a space where you feel comfortable being honest about what you’re going through.
I believe people do best when they feel genuinely heard and understood. I take the time to listen, answer questions, and work with you to find solutions that fit your life. My focus is helping you feel better, function better, and get back to being the version of yourself you want to be.
