Welcome!

I’m a Florida native and honored to serve Brandon and the surrounding areas! I enjoy exploring new places, morning walks, reading, running for fun, a good cup of coffee, and spending quality time with family and friends.

I earned my B.S. in Psychology and Master’s in Marriage and Family Counseling from Southeastern University in Lakeland, Florida. I have experience working in both community mental health agencies and private practices as a bilingual therapist. I’ve worked with children, adolescents, and young adults from diverse cultural backgrounds addressing a variety of concerns, including:

• Anxiety

• Body image & self-esteem

• Perfectionism

• Relational and attachment issues

• Family conflict

• Bullying

• Depression

• Coping skills & stress management

• Grief & trauma

• Life transitions

• Faith & spirituality

My Approach

My approach is collaborative, non-judgmental, and individualized. I primarily work with adolescents and young adults, focusing on self-esteem, relationships, and family dynamics. I also explore past attachments and experiences with caregivers and significant others to understand how these relationships shape current coping patterns.

Together, we’ll set treatment goals, increase personal awareness, discuss coping strategies, and regularly assess progress. I draw from a range of modalities including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal Therapy, Mindfulness-based skills, and Play Therapy. I also incorporate personality assessments and Enneagram coaching when helpful.
