Private Practice Owner, Telemental Health Provider FL, SC and GA, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional CCTP, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART).

I bring over 20 years prior background in mentorship with the US Army and YMCA, and over a decade of practical knowledge in suicide intervention techniques. As a Licensed Certified Social Worker - Clinical, I have added over five years of training and experience with individual, group, and couples therapy in a social work setting.

My approach is not one-size-fits-all, and I see a limited number of clients (ages 18+), this allows for a focus and pace your path requires. My specialties include cultural humility, LGBTQ+ affirming care, and consensual non-monogamy/sex-positive awareness. I am also a National Coalition for Sexual Freedom Kink Aware Professional.

In my practice as a therapist I use the research on what works to help my clients get the outcomes they want; better relationships, managed anxiety, less depression and more control over life. I pursued a few paths in life before my career in mental health. I studied Modern Literature at the University of California, Santa Cruz. I worked for years as a math, science and SAT tutor. I trained for and competed extensively in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu tournaments. My approach as a therapist is multidisciplinary, drawing on my previous experience coaching and educating adolescents and adults in athletic and academic environments.

Every client has unique needs and that calls for a customized perspective. I do not limit our work into any single modality but blend a variety of techniques to tailor my approach to treatment for each individual. The primary modalities I draw influence from are cognitive behavioral, humanistic and dynamic psychotherapy.

I work with individuals and couples with many different issues, needs, sexualities, and relationship styles. The decision to pursue therapy is an exciting step toward building the life you want. By working together, we can get to a different place than we are able to achieve on our own. Whether this is your first experience or you are continuing a long-term engagement with therapy, I am excited to join you.

I’ve been working in human service since 1990 and psychotherapist in private practice since 2001. I work with individuals.

My primary focus is relationship counseling, but I also enjoy working with and empowering women, the LGBTQ+ community (I consider myself a strong ally), and the poly/kink community. The best human relationships are experienced when we have healed and grown from our past pain and trauma, and I passionately pursue helping people thrive in this way.

As a process-oriented practitioner I tailor sessions to you and what is happening- it may be more linear and involve talking and coaching or we will explore your dreams or work with your body. I’m deeply passionate about working with people and cherish the beautiful diversity of both humans and nature ore briadly. I’m not just interested in"fixing" things but also in engaging with the creativity of the challenges you face.

Through the use of hypnosis, you experience an altered state of consciousness that allows you to directly access your subconscious mind. By speaking to the subconscious in language it can easily hear you change patterns you have outgrown - creating new healthy images out of the old.

You use an intention to work toward your personal goals, and you are the one who is controlling the process. As a result, you remove subconscious blocks and find guidance from within your deep self.

In my practice I use Hypnotherapy by itself or combine it with Reiki, based on your personal choices and needs. The combined approach is especially helpful for physical manifestations of emotional issues or for supporting deep inner healing.
