When you care for your mental health, you honor your worth.
It’s not just healing — it’s loving yourself enough to grow.
PMHNP-BC, LMHC-QS, EMDR
I am a licensed therapist, psychiatric nurse practitioner, certified EMDR therapist and an EMDRIA approved consultant! I have worked with victims of sexual, physical, elderly and emotional abuse. Helping individuals process experiences of trauma is my passion.
Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger past traumatic events. We can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing.
"My passion lies in helping people process painful emotions such as fear, anxiety, and hopelessness."

We are pleased to offer telehealth services for clients located in the state of Florida. To ensure a productive and effective virtual session, we ask that you adhere to the following guidelines:
Please ensure you are in a private area with minimal distractions
Your camera needs to be on, and you should be visible. This enhances communication and helps create a more engaging therapeutic environment, allowing for better connection and understanding between you and your clinician.
For your safety and the effectiveness of the session, you must not be driving during your appointment.
Please mute notifications and electronic devices around you to maintain focus during your session.
If your surroundings are too distracting or do not allow for privacy, your session will need to be canceled.
By following these guidelines, we can create a supportive and meaningful telehealth experience that prioritizes your health and well-being. We look forward to connecting with you!
Keeping your mind alive and healthy
At our practice, we prioritize a conservative approach to medication management. While we recognize that certain mental health conditions necessitate medication due to underlying brain chemistry, our focus extends beyond pharmacological solutions. For conditions that do not require lifelong medication, we aim to empower individuals through psychoeducation and lifestyle adjustments.
Our goal is to alleviate medical distress by equipping you with the knowledge and tools needed to foster long-lasting change. We integrate evidence-based therapeutic practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), ensuring that our clients receive comprehensive care tailored to their unique needs. Together, we can work towards achieving your desired outcomes in a supportive and effective manner.
At our practice, we understand that many clients seek relief from insomnia and often request medication. However, we prioritize a holistic approach to treatment and avoid prescribing narcotics whenever possible. For acute insomnia, we effectively address underlying issues such as mania, depression, and anxiety to help alleviate sleep disturbances.
For those struggling with chronic insomnia, we collaborate with trusted providers within the community to ensure comprehensive care. Our focus extends beyond medication; we emphasize the importance of sleep hygiene techniques and lifestyle modifications tailored to improve sleep quality. Additionally, we provide guidance on nutrition and food choices that can enhance serotonin modulation, promoting better sleep naturally. Together, we can work towards restful nights and rejuvenated days
