With over 15 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Master’s Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) in Florida, I have dedicated my life and career to helping individuals find long-term recovery and sobriety. I specialize in working with those facing mental health struggles, addiction, trauma, and life transitions, using evidence-based practices to promote healing and growth. Having firsthand experience understanding the journey of addiction and recovery, I bring both professional expertise and deep empathy to our therapeutic relationship.
With extensive experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ve seen firsthand how this evidence-based approach can transform lives. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, stress, or life transitions, CBT provides practical tools to help you take control of your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Using a strength-based approach, I help individuals discover inner resilience, overcome challenges, and create meaningful change. Rather than focusing solely on problems or limitations, this approach highlights your unique strengths, abilities, and past successes. It encourages self-empowerment and fosters a mindset of growth and possibility.
You may be feeling trapped by addiction and ready for change, Struggling with the emotional and physical toll of substance/alcohol use, Looking for guidance in rebuilding your life and relationships, seeking a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to heal, and wanting to develop healthier coping strategies and regain control. I specialize in working with individuals who are seeking recovery from addiction that has become unmanageable and too much to bear alone. If you feel overwhelmed, stuck in a cycle of substance use, or unsure of how to move forward, I am here to help.
My approach is not just professional—it’s personal. I know the struggles of addiction and the power of recovery, and I am deeply committed to guiding others toward hope, healing, and a life they truly want to live.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
