People are doing the best they can and people want to improve

I specialize in treating anxiety disorders (GAD, OCD, specific phobias, and social anxiety), depression, emotional dysregulation, and mood disorders. My approach is rooted in evidence-based treatments such as CBT, ERP, and DBT, backed by extensive hands-on training. During my time at Rogers Behavioral Health in Tampa, FL, I worked as a Behavioral Specialist in Intensive Outpatient (IOP) and Partial Hospitalization (PHP) programs, where I provided CBT and ERP therapy to clients managing intrusive thoughts and anxiety-related symptoms. Additionally, I received advanced DBT training under Nancy Gordon, LCSW, at the Tampa Bay Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TBC for CBT), where I co-led DBT skills groups and family support sessions. With this solid foundation, I balance a compassionate and direct therapy style to help clients achieve meaningful progress and navigate life’s challenges.

With a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from the University of Central Florida and years of hands-on clinical experience, I offer compassionate and personalized care to individuals seeking support. Whether you’re dealing with persistent worries, intrusive thoughts, intense fears, or social discomfort, I am here to help you navigate these challenges. Let’s work together to turn your goals into reality and create lasting, positive change.
