My Approach to Helping

I create a safe space for individuals and couples to share, grow and heal. I will guide you through the complexities of individual conflict and pain, and help you resolve relational struggles. My passion is to help individuals and couples cope and heal as they face unexpected and very painful challenges.

Together we can build a relationship based on openness, understanding, and trust, and free of all judgment. I will walk with you to help you discover the tools you need to acknowledge and share your pain, and help you find the peace that allows you to move forward in a healthy way.

More Info About My Practice

I am a Licensed Psychologist in the state of Florida with over 12 years of experience. I received my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Georgia, along with Masters degrees in Counseling Psychology and Organizational Psychology from Columbia University. Additionally, I am a professional member of Postpartum Support International (PSI) and American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM).

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

Trained as a generalist psychologist, I have worked with a myriad of issues over the last decade which includes; anxiety, depression, stress management, grief and loss, relationship issues, trauma, abuse, life transitions, personal growth & enrichment, self-esteem, self-confidence and school and work related concerns. Therefore I am able to meet your needs and provide a space for your growth and healing.

In addition other areas of specialization includes grief & loss concerns (miscarriage, stillbirth or other neonatal loss), challenges with fertility, and pregnancy and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders. I have received extensive bereavement training on perinatal loss through Resolve Through Sharing (RTS). In addition, I have received Professional Maternal Mental Health Certificate Training through Postpartum Support International (PSI) and 2020 Mom Project.
