Find a Therapist in Wellington, FL

I believe humans thrive best in thoughtful, generative environments where self-exploration is encouraged and relationships feel good. Negative experiences, inner struggles, and disappointments can disrupt a good thing and make it hard to feel connected. At The Growth Haven, we take our time and give attention to the roles you inhabit, the patterns on repeat, and the paths that have brought you to this point in your life. My style is warm, direct, and engaged. I’m a teacher at heart, and I like to offer observations, ask questions, and welcome your honest response. I appreciate depth, and I also appreciate a good laugh. I work best at a crossroads or when life brings you challenges. I’m interested in what matters to you, what surprises you, and what becomes possible when you give yourself room to investigate. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, shame and self-esteem, identity exploration, somatic work, and spiritual development. I look forward to meeting you.

Are you navigating general stressors, life transitions, complicated family dynamics, or parenting challenges? If so, I’m here to listen, validate, and ask thought-provoking questions. We can explore your story with curiosity and process life’s ups and downs. My goal is to help you build awareness and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. Are you navigating general stressors, life transitions, complicated family dynamics, or parenting challenges? If so, I’m here to listen, validate, and ask thought-provoking questions. We can explore your story with curiosity and process life’s ups and downs. My goal is to help you build awareness and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. In our work, we’ll talk about what's on your mind, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and reflect on childhood experiences, patterns of thinking and behavior, and deeply held beliefs. We’ll identify barriers, strengthen coping skills, and uncover insights that support growth and new perspectives. As a helper by nature, working professional, mother of two, and oldest of four, I understand the complexity of juggling many roles. My healthcare experience has shown me the strength people bring to hard moments, fueling my passion for supporting parents, helping professionals, and those navigating the complexities of being human.

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.

I believe that healing begins with understanding, and my approach to care is grounded in respect, active listening, and building trust with my patients. As a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I'm dedicated to delivering compassionate, evidence-based mental health care that addresses both your immediate needs and long-term wellness goals. My career has given me a unique perspective on the vital connection between physical and mental health. I began my nursing career at Georgetown University Hospital, working in neurology and neurosurgery, where I developed a deep appreciation for how our brain health impacts our emotional well-being. This foundation has proven invaluable as I transitioned into psychiatric nursing, where I've gained extensive experience across diverse settings. I've worked on Yale New Haven Hospital's inpatient psychiatric unit, served on Stamford Hospital's psychiatric consult-liaison team working with patients in emergency and medical settings, and provided outpatient psychiatric care through medication management and therapy. This broad experience means I understand mental health challenges across the full spectrum—from acute crises to ongoing outpatient support. I take a comprehensive approach to psychiatric care, recognizing that you are a whole person, not just a diagnosis. Whether you're struggling with depression, anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), bipolar condition, or other mental health conditions, I work collaboratively with you to develop a treatment plan that aligns with your values and goals. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with therapeutic support, ensuring you receive both the medical expertise and emotional understanding you deserve. I'm committed to supporting you through every stage of your mental health journey, meeting you exactly where you are with compassion and clinical excellence.

My philosophy is to help my clients learn more about themselves through exploring and challenging their current understanding of who they are and what their role is in life. I strive to empower my clients to become the best version of themselves and move out of their comfort zone so they may grow. I am a strong advocate of a holistic approach exploring the biological, spiritual as well as the cognitive areas of each client I support.

Reaching out for therapy can be one of the hardest steps to take. You may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, stuck, or simply unsure of what to do next. Choosing a therapist is a personal decision, and feeling comfortable enough to be open and vulnerable is an important part of the process. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. Together, we’ll explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to better understand what’s contributing to your concerns and identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Rather than relying on quick or one-size-fits-all solutions, we’ll work together to find strategies that make sense for you and your circumstances. Through greater self-awareness and understanding, therapy can help you develop healthier ways of coping, communicating, making decisions, and responding to life’s challenges. My goal is for you to leave therapy with insights and practical skills that are useful not only in our sessions, but in your everyday life.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or struggling in a relationship? When we face challenging times we all need help and guidance with healing ourselves. I use a compassionate yet direct approach to help you uncover practical solutions to life’s challenges. I draw from a variety of modalities to ensure each client’s needs are met. I’ve worked in outpatient and inpatient settings, as well as in residential treatment programs, private practice, and in-home therapy. This background gives me invaluable experience working with an array of issues such as relationships, depression, anxiety, sexuality, and self-esteem. In addition to utilizing traditional therapy, I also use holistic methods. Your physical, emotional, and psychological health are all linked. For your convenience and comfort, I offer sessions in my office or your home or office. I also keep a small caseload to provide reliable, individualized treatment. When you call, you’ll speak directly with me.

My approach to therapy is trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and tailored to each person’s unique experiences and needs. As a neurodivergent therapist, I understand that healing is not one-size-fits-all. I work with adults navigating attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), autism, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. I believe meaningful growth happens through connection, safety, and curiosity, and I strive to create a supportive space where you feel understood, empowered, and able to explore your inner world at your own pace.

Many clients have tried therapy before without success. Sessions are tailored to your needs, not a one-size-fits-all approach. We go beneath the surface, helping things start to make sense instead of feeling confusing and heavy. You begin to feel more understood, calmer inside, and steadier in your life and relationships. Call or email to schedule your free consultation.

Sometimes in life, our lives can become too stressful and overwhelming to cope with on our own. We may struggle with feelings of depression, anxiety, or not being good enough in some way. It is during these periods in life when seeking help or support is important for our overall wellbeing. It is my passion to help others struggling with significant difficulties in their lives. I care about the people I work with and my goal is to provide an environment where you feel heard and understood.

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.
