Find a Therapist near Port Saint Lucie, FL

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns that are difficult to change, or simply unsure of how to move forward. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, a major life transition, or another difficult period, therapy can provide a space to better understand what you are experiencing and develop meaningful ways of responding to it. I approach therapy as a collaborative process. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and comfortable exploring difficult thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Together, we will work to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop practical strategies for navigating challenges, and identify changes that are consistent with what matters most to you. My approach is evidence-based and individualized, drawing primarily from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I do not believe therapy should feel like a one-size-fits-all formula. I tailor our work to your needs, experiences, strengths, and goals, while approaching the therapeutic relationship with warmth, compassion, curiosity, and respect. Ultimately, I believe we all have the capacity for growth and change throughout our lives. Therapy can help strengthen your sense of agency, deepen your understanding of yourself, and move you toward a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling.

You may appear to have everything together on the outside while privately feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. Maybe work stress follows you home, your relationship feels strained, or you keep repeating patterns you cannot seem to break on your own. Therapy can help you slow things down, better understand what is getting in the way, and begin making meaningful changes. My approach is warm, direct, collaborative, and practical. I do not believe therapy should be a passive conversation. I listen carefully, ask meaningful questions, and challenge you when needed so our work stays focused and useful. Together, we will identify the thoughts, emotions, relationship patterns, and coping strategies that may be keeping you stuck, then build healthier ways to respond. I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, addiction, relationship struggles, intense emotions, work pressure, and major life transitions. I use DBT skills and Gottman Method principles to help clients build insight, improve communication, strengthen emotional resilience, and move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and connection. Reaching out can feel difficult, especially if you are used to handling things on your own. You do not have to figure it out alone. If you are ready for things to feel different, I would be honored to help you take the next step.

The primary approach to therapy, in my view is an egalitarian and empowerment model in which the client is given the opportunity to expand and process presenting issues within the context of their world view, experience, and through their relationship to self and others. I incorporate an eclectic approach to treatment based on client's needs and goals. Everyone is different and experiences the world in a unique way. Assisting a client find their authentic self and engage more fully in life with increased optimism, hope, and happiness is key in my practice.

My ideal clients are individuals, couples, or group members who feel stuck in painful cycles of disconnection, secrecy, or out-of-control sexual behaviors. If you’ve found yourself struggling with relational intimacy, wrestling with guilt and shame, or trying to repair the damage in your relationship, I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate this alone. I specialize in helping people who feel overwhelmed by these challenges find clarity, healing, and a path forward, whether from compulsive sexual behaviors or being the victim of infidelity. My approach is compassionate, direct, and collaborative. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, I take the time to listen to your story, understand the patterns that have shaped your struggles, and work with you to create practical steps toward healing and growth. I also work directly with those who have been impacted by infidelity, supporting both the injured partner and the relationship as a whole. Together, we’ll uncover not just the behaviors, but the deeper emotional needs and relational patterns underneath them. With individuals, I help identify triggers, build healthier coping strategies, and strengthen your capacity for connection. With couples, I create a safe space where both partners can express their hurt, their hopes, and begin to rebuild trust—step by step. And in groups, I facilitate an environment where you can learn from others who are on a similar journey, offering both accountability and encouragement. I draw from proven therapeutic methods as well as my years of experience working with intimacy challenges, compulsive sexual behaviors, and relational struggles. My goal is not just to stop a behavior, but to help you move toward deeper intimacy, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of self. If you’re ready to take the first step, I’m here to walk alongside you—not with judgment, but with understanding, respect, and the tools to help you heal.

Why wait too long until the problem has already become a burden. Once the problem became a burden, people feel trapped, stuck, overwhelmed, sometimes even alone, thinking "How did I get to this situation?". Couples and individuals are also uncertain about where to start to recover their lives or relationships again. Do not wait any longer ... If things have not changed with everything you have tried, then they will not improve as long as you continue doing what you have done so far. You need to try something new, and I can help you with that, so that you can put your life or relationship back on track.
