My Role as a Therapist
I am a learner. Since a young age, I have had a desire to learn the importance and impact of human connection and to support others in their journey to living authentically. I earned my Master of Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Bachelor of Psychology from Kean University in Union, New Jersey. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (MH19068) in the state of Florida. I am also a Licensed Associate Counselor in the state of New Jersey. My mission is to help you reach your personal, professional, social and relationship goals by providing an environment where you learn acceptance, support, and care. I will learn from you as you will learn to heal.
What I Say to People Concerned about the Therapy Process
You are courageous. Reaching out takes bravery and introspection, and can be the first step in finding your authentic self and living a more fulfilling and enjoyable life. Though you may be feeling anxiety, depression, or other deeply uncomfortable thoughts, you are prepared to learn strategies to fully process these emotions. You may also be seeking healthy relationships, whether social, sexual or romantic. I understand that these relationships are vital to your emotional and spiritual well-being, and helping you to explore and examine these connections is an integral part of our time together. Also, as an LGBTQI aware counselor, I am open to working with and discussing all types of relationships and experiences in authentic and straightforward conversation. I respect your courage, regardless of where you may be on your journey.
