Throughout my years of experience as a therapist, I have worked with individuals dealing with a variety of mental health issues. I have worked with people of all ages and have experience working with families and couples. I have had additional training to serve individuals dealing with addictions and with processing trauma, and I have extensive experience working with individuals dealing with mood disorders and anxiety, as well as relationship and parenting issues.

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a strength-based, solution-focused approach, and I integrate Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing techniques. My key areas of practice include depression, anxiety, trauma, communication in relationships, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, and grief and bereavement. I have been certified as a Compassion Fatigue Educator and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.

I received my Master's degree from the Hunter College School of Social Work in New York, and I hold clinical social work licenses in Florida, Maine, Vermont, and Wisconsin. I have held leadership and clinical roles in community mental health centers, housing programs, hospitals, and non-profit organizations. I am proficient in assisting clients to navigate transitions in all aspects of the life span.

Over the past 30 years, my experience has taught me that the most important aspect of therapy is the connection and comfort you feel with the person with whom you choose to share your personal struggles. I like to listen to what patients are telling me about what is important to them and what they would like to address in therapy. We can then start to set goals together and work towards the outcomes they want. We always go at a pace that is comfortable to the client.

I see individuals from the perspective of the various environments they interact in and how those environments impact them. I incorporate therapy from a Solution Focused perspective, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Attachment theory. I have also been trained in Crisis Intervention and Trauma Informed therapy. I am enthusiastic about collaborating with clients under the care of one of our psychiatric experts in order to allow for a more complete and personalized approach for each individual's needs.

I am fully licensed as a Marriage and Family Therapist in multiple states, with decades of life experience supporting my 3 years of full licensure. I began my education later in life at Elgin Community College, then continued to acquire my bachelor's degree from Argosy University with honors. I went on to complete my Master's in Family Counseling at the CACREP accredited graduate school Northeastern Illinois University. My training included the externship for Emotion Focused Therapy with Dr. Sue Johnson.

My life experience and clientele have spanned all life cycles, races, and medical needs, as well as honoring all varieties of human beings. I have also supported clients through medical diagnosis and end of life, as well as grief. I bring enthusiasm for each client based on the belief that each person has unique purpose, strengths, and abilities on which to draw. The client's abilities, paired with tools and support acquired in therapy, will lead each of my clients to a life they choose to enhance.

I fully embrace whole-person care and am passionate about understanding and supporting a client's lifestyle by exploring the six pillars associated with a client's well-being: healthy eating habits, physical activity, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, restorative sleep, and social connection. This passion for lifestyle medicine stems from my personal story of living with a chronic medical condition and overcoming many challenging obstacles. My services address stress management, relational health, effective communication, and conflict resolution. I am Gottman Level One and Two trained and am a certified relationship educator. Other modalities I use include solution focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness coaching. My mission is to be a source of hope for my clients, while walking with them and exploring the roads that illuminate their life story.

I am a Staff Psychotherapist at Talkiatry and have been practicing in the mental health field since 2008. I studied psychology at the University of Central Florida and received my master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Nova Southeastern University. I have worked directly with adults adjusting to life transitions related to medical issues, relationships, work, becoming a parent, and other life cycle changes.

Over the years, I have enjoyed seeing clients grow in confidence, experience new levels of peace, and start to flourish in their relationships and careers.

I believe people already carry so much of what they need within them, but sometimes life gets loud, painful, confusing, or overwhelming, and it helps to have someone work alongside you to sort through it with care. My role is to offer a space where you can feel safe enough to be honest, understood, and fully yourself.

I work with adults ages 18 and up who are navigating all kinds of challenges, whether that’s anxiety, depression, relationship stress, family pain, life transitions, burnout, grief, trauma, or simply feeling stuck and unsure of what comes next. I know how important it is to feel genuinely seen—not judged, rushed, or reduced to a problem to solve—and I try to bring that into every session.

My approach is client-centered, strength-based, and solution-focused. I draw from approaches like CBT and DBT, but more than anything, I believe therapy works best when it's real, collaborative, and human. Every person has their own story, their own strengths, and their own way forward, and I deeply respect that.

I care a lot about the people I work with and the relationships we build within the therapy space. I see therapy as a collaborative process—one where we make sense of what hurts, notice what’s getting in the way, and help you move toward a life that feels more grounded, meaningful, and true to who you are. And I genuinely look forward to connecting with you!

‍

I provide a warm, supportive space where clients feel heard and understood. I take a collaborative approach, tailoring therapy to each client's needs while integrating practical strategies for healing and growth. My sessions are focused on fostering insight, building emotional resilience, and equipping clients with tools to create lasting change. Whether working with individuals or couples, my goal is to help clients navigate life's challenges with greater clarity, connection, and confidence.

I specialize in helping couples rebuild trust after infidelity, strengthen emotional connection, and improve communication. I also support individuals facing anxiety, burnout, and the emotional impact of chronic illness, guiding them toward healing and resilience.

I am a trauma and couples' therapist with a Master of Social Work from the University of Alabama and advanced training in Brainspotting, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the Gottman Method for couples therapy.

I hold the credentials LICSW-S and PIP.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, combining Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy (CBT) with holistic methods, emphasizing Solution Focused Therapy, Reality Therapy, and Positive Psychology. I believe in the mind-body connection and that exploring various areas of an individual's functioning is essential for optimum physical and emotional health. I emphasize a collaborative therapist-client relationship, where both act as partners in designing treatment goals. I value identifying ineffective past modalities to avoid frustration and ensure personalized care. Recognizing that each person is unique, I adapt to the patient's evolving needs, ensuring they feel heard and supported for positive outcomes.

My areas of expertise include health psychology, complex trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, social anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, LGBTQIA populations, bereavement, forensics, substance abuse, couples work, MISA, co-occurring disorders, domestic violence, sex offenders, special needs populations, and chronic medical issues and rare diseases.

I utilize a combination of approaches in working with my clients, including person-centered, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, solution focused techniques, and a variety of other techniques. I enjoy working with individuals who have co-occurring disorders, both mental health and substance use. I have experience working with a wide range of age groups and mental health issues including but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, stress management, grief, relationship issues, and a wide range of substance use issues. I will assess individuals' needs in their first few visits and work with them to develop an individualized treatment plan. I work to provide the empathetic listening and emotional support that my clients need to reach their goals. My dream has been to work myself out of a job, as I want to help my clients find healing and happiness.

As a therapist, my work has given me in-depth insight into how multiple systems and important relationships can influence the course of a person's life. As a queer woman of Haitian descent, I explore different ways the intersectionality of culture, family, identity, and sexuality can impact our lives. I am fascinated by stories of vulnerability, always looking for strengths and solutions. I help people feel safe to be themselves and go from where they are to where they can be. I provide individual, couples, and family therapy, integrating Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Solution-Focused Therapy, collaborative conversations, and systemic approaches to address LGBTQ+ issues, racial trauma, cultural identity exploration, and relational wounds.

I earned a B.S. in Psychology and Biblical Studies from Palm Beach Atlantic University, followed by my M.S. and PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy from Nova Southeastern University. In 2020, I was featured in Forbes for my study of resilience and intersecting identities in queer women of Afro-Caribbean descent. Past roles include bilingual mental health assessor, psychology instructor at Broward College, and Student Counselor at Lynn University.

Over the years in the mental health field, I have come to believe that the best approach to therapy is a collaborative process with the client to assist in achieving their goals. I have experience working with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, grief, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other mental health concerns. My experience with modalities includes cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, motivational interviewing, and dialectical behavioral therapy.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in New York and an out-of-state telehealth provider in Florida. I received my Master of Mental Health Counseling from Alliance Graduate School of Counseling (now Alliance University).

As I often say, "The world can be a scary, cold, and insensitive place, and there is a lot of uncertainty going around, but together we can get through it." Although I am part of the BIPOC community, I welcome all races, creeds, and religions.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware, and I have been a Social Worker since 2001. I completed my B.S. in Science with a major in Criminal Justice from John Jay College of Criminal Justice in 1992. I then worked as a Correction Counselor with the NYC Department of Corrections for a few years, working with female inmates who had substance abuse problems and with adolescents, facilitating treatment recovery groups and psychoeducation. In 1998, I began working with the Administration for Children Services while pursuing my Master's Degree at Hunter College School of Social Work, where I graduated in 2001 with my MSW. For 19 years I worked as a Discharge Planner in a hospital while attending Metropolitan Institute for Mental Health to study in the Adult Psychoanalytic Division. In 2012, I switched gears and began working as a Behavioral Health Care Manager, while also starting my own private practice, called "Live the Life you Want," because I strongly believe that all individuals should live their own lives the way they want to and desire. In 2022, I received a two-year certificate in Integrated Trauma from the Institute for Contemporary Psychotherapy, where I received training in EMDR and Somatic Experiencing, and I am currently working toward a certification as an Accelerated Experiential Psychodynamic Psychotherapist, an experiential model that seeks to alleviate patients' psychological suffering by helping them process the overwhelming emotions associated with trauma, depression, and anxiety. I have been in the mental health field for over 30 years.

I create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where patients are heard and validated, without needing to apologize for their pain or emotions. My therapeutic approach is collaborative: you actively work together with me to achieve your mental health goals, with progress reflecting the effort you put in. I begin by understanding your personal history to see how past experiences shape current behaviors and perspectives. Initial sessions focus on setting goals and identifying obstacles, followed by working together to overcome challenges and achieve those goals. This space encourages patients to express themselves authentically.

I earned my Bachelor's in Social Work from Augusta University and my Master's in Social Work from Barry University. I have extensive experience working with adults in inpatient and outpatient mental health and substance use settings, as well as in residential treatment for eating disorders.

I create a supportive and conversational environment where clients feel heard and respected. I strongly advocate for each client's well-being and work to empower them to take control of their symptoms. Open communication is central to my approach, and I believe therapy is most effective when clients and counselor collaborate to set clear, achievable goals together. Trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches, I tailor treatment to meet the unique needs of each individual.

In the first session, I introduce coping skills rooted in CBT to provide immediate support. I partner with clients to identify their concerns and build individualized treatment plans that fit their lives. Throughout therapy, I guide clients in restructuring unhelpful thoughts, balancing emotions with rationality, and practicing new skills. My ultimate goal is to equip clients with tools they can confidently use long after therapy ends.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas, practicing since 2020. I bring diverse experience from working in jails, behavioral health hospitals, and private clinics, which allows me to understand and support clients from many different backgrounds.

I use a person-centered and eclectic style, drawing on modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness-based approaches. I believe in tailoring interventions to each client's unique needs, fostering resilience and self-efficacy in their journey toward healing. My work spans multiple roles across inpatient and outpatient settings, with a strong focus on individuals facing substance use, domestic violence, and co-occurring conditions.

I hold an MSW from Louisiana State University and licensure in multiple states. At Lower Key Medical Center, I served as an inpatient social worker and the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) coordinator, where I provided crisis intervention, therapy, and groups. In my role as IOP coordinator, I managed IOP tracks, ensuring patients received comprehensive psychotherapeutic support via group and individual therapy. Previously, my work at the Guidance/Care Center molded my expertise in crisis response, relapse prevention, and intensive therapeutic interventions across various settings. My work as a Clinical Counselor at the Children's Home Society, working closely with parents involved in the child welfare system and providing therapy and court-informed treatment recommendations, further solidified this knowledge.

I provide a structured, compassionate, and collaborative approach to care. I believe in meeting patients where they are while offering practical tools that create meaningful change. I emphasize accountability, skill-building, and measurable progress, particularly in treating addiction, OCD, anxiety, and trauma-related concerns. I begin with a comprehensive assessment to clarify goals and develop an individualized treatment plan, integrating evidence-based modalities such as CBT, ERP, and trauma-focused therapies, with ongoing evaluation of progress. Treatment includes clear goal setting, skill practice between sessions, and coordinated care when appropriate.

I am a licensed mental health professional with over 23 years of experience across outpatient, inpatient, and telehealth settings. I hold the credentials MA, LPC, LPC-S, and LAC.

I use a Person-Centered approach, meeting each individual where they are and tailoring therapy to their unique qualities. I create a safe, confidential space and focus on building resiliency and confidence while validating experiences, challenging stuck thinking, and exploring overlooked aspects of the self that impact current struggles. I begin by understanding a client's history, concerns, and goals, collaborating to identify attainable objectives. I ensure scheduling is clear to support consistency and offer flexible session structures based on client needs. I guide clients in developing symptom management skills while fostering personal insight and growth throughout the therapeutic process.

I began my career in Outreach, supporting the Adult Mental Health population with substance use, housing, and medication management.

I am warm, caring, collaborative, and evidence-based. I match each client's pace and style to create a tailor-made wellness plan, balancing heart and mind to ensure clients leave with a personalized toolkit for growth. I support clients seeking guidance with dating, gender and sexuality, anxiety and depression, life transitions, career and education stress, organization, and purpose.

I begin sessions by explaining therapy guidelines so clients feel comfortable and empowered. I explore the concern bringing them in, followed by history, strengths, and goals. Together, we develop a measurable, personalized treatment plan using person-centered care with CBT, solution-focused strategies, psychodynamic insight, and family systems approaches.

I hold a BA in Psychology and an MS in Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have experience providing telehealth and in-person therapy in community and private practice settings.

I value open communication and believe in creating a warm, supportive environment where patients feel respected and understood. With over fifteen years of experience helping individuals heal from trauma, I view the therapeutic process as an opportunity for patients to reclaim their voices and move from "victim" to survivor on their own terms. Patients can expect empathy, collaboration, and a strong sense of safety in my care. I begin each therapeutic relationship by establishing trust and safety, encouraging honest dialogue around personal and family challenges. I integrate education, reflection, and resource sharing on topics like communication and conflict resolution. Together with patients, I develop personalized short- and long-term goals rooted in their individual and cultural values, ensuring therapy supports meaningful and lasting growth.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice from the University of Massachusetts and a Master's Degree in Clinical Counseling from Walden University. My professional journey began in law enforcement, later leading to education and mental health advocacy. My work as a crisis advocate for survivors of sexual assault and domestic abuse inspired me to pursue counseling full time. Since earning my graduate degree in 2015, I have worked extensively with children, families, and adults, specializing in trauma recovery and empowerment.

My therapeutic approach is person-centered and trauma-informed. I recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all path to healing and strive to meet each client where they are. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I believe that showing up takes courage and feel honored to walk alongside my clients on their journey of growth and self-discovery. I am dedicated to helping each individual become the best version of themselves by identifying and building upon their strengths to navigate life's challenges with resilience and purpose.

I am a psychotherapist with a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am licensed to practice in New York, Massachusetts, and Florida, and am recognized as a National Certified Counselor (NCC).

I earned my Master of Arts degree from Lesley University in Expressive Therapies and Mental Health Counseling.

I am a dedicated and engaged listener who takes time to understand each client's current challenges and personal history. I work collaboratively to gather information about past treatment experiences and establish meaningful treatment goals. Through thoughtful exploration of thoughts and feelings, I support clients in working toward greater balance, insight, and satisfaction in their lives.

I use an eclectic approach in treatment to provide client-centered care. The most common therapeutic styles I use are DBT, CBT, solution focused, narrative therapy, feminist therapy, and person-centered therapy. My primary clinical focus has been in treating adults with more serious and persistent mental illness and issues of addiction. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy and support people in identifying the more complex factors that contribute to distressing symptoms while focusing on the resiliency human beings possess.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma (including Narcissistic Abuse), and grief. I believe in fostering a collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients feel empowered to set and achieve meaningful goals. From a holistic perspective, I incorporate techniques such as identifying strengths, mindfulness, polyvagal techniques, challenging core belief systems, early childhood, and attachment types to heal the mind, body, and spirit. I have experience in many methods and techniques, ensuring that my approach integrates evidence-based practices with experiential techniques which are tailored to each client's unique needs to allow for nervous system regulation and a sense of safety within themselves.

I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Nebraska-Omaha (2008) and am licensed as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with 16 years of experience in the mental health field.

When not working with clients, I enjoy being outdoors, reading, and spending time with my husband, son, and two dogs.

I take a person-centered approach with my clients and believe in meeting clients where they are. I hope to empower my clients by giving them a safe environment to explore and learn more about themselves without judgment. I see the importance in looking at the whole picture when working with a client, and I hope to create rounded goals to promote long-term success and help the client feel more balanced overall. I use solution-focused and cognitive behavioral interventions to help clients build a toolbox of skills that can help them cope with daily life. I believe in advocacy for my clients as well as the mental health field, and I hope to promote acceptance and decrease stigma related to mental health and mental health treatment. I wish to help my clients reach their full potential, while hopefully making them laugh once in a while during the process.

I believe in building a trusting relationship so that the individual and I can work together to help create change. My style is reality-based, and I view myself as having many roles as a therapist, including that of a support, teacher, advocate, facilitator, and listener in the treatment relationship.

I have been counseling for over 20 years and possess an LPC-MHSP license. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at the University of Tennessee, then went on to earn my Master's Degree, with a focus on Guidance and Counseling, at Lincoln Memorial University. I have been trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Motivational Interviewing.

My professional career has provided me with the opportunity to work with individuals in a variety of settings. I have provided treatment in residential care programs for children and adolescents, in the family home, community-based mental health centers, and substance abuse treatment outpatient services. In these settings, I have had the opportunity to treat all ages, dealing with a wide range of issues including trauma, substance abuse and recovery, and mood disorders such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

I understand that beginning counseling can feel intimidating, and I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment where therapy moves at the patient's pace. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while incorporating elements of Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused approaches, Strength-Based methods, Motivational Interviewing, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Drawing on my multicultural background, I respect and honor each individual's unique experiences and cultures. I believe no concern is too large or too small to address in therapy and emphasize collaboration at every stage.

I view the first appointment as a chance to build trust, explore how the patient and I can work together, and establish goals for therapy. I provide a clear framework for what to expect, welcome questions, and encourage open communication throughout the process. Understanding that sharing personal history can be difficult, I am committed to moving at a pace that feels comfortable and supportive for each patient.

I meet each person where they are, creating a safe space where clients feel heard, valued, and respected. I emphasize open communication, collaboration, and mutual trust, encouraging patients to share what feels most comfortable and meaningful to them. My goal is to empower clients to identify and pursue their personal goals at their own pace, fostering lasting growth. I bring compassion, positivity, experience, and humor to my sessions, reminding patients that change begins with understanding and acceptance.

My experience spans nearly two decades working with many who struggle to find their way through different life challenges. I will collaborate with you to identify and attain goals. Getting to know you is the first step, and that is achieved through a variety of approaches grounded in family systems, cognitive behavioral therapy, and understanding any types of trauma that may have been experienced. Many have had trauma, and what I have learned is that talking about the details of the trauma is not always helpful. It may be a component of healing, but there may be other ways to make progress. I utilize a combination of approaches to be helpful in working with clients. Some may include person-centered, solution focused, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing). I work with ages 18 and up on mental health issues like depression, anxiety, grief, stress management, trauma, communication, and relationship issues. I enjoy seeing a client shift perspectives and report feeling more at peace as they reach their goals.

I have experience in different treatment settings in Ohio and enjoy working with those who have mental health and substance use disorders. I completed my doctorate degree in Counselor Education & Supervision in Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy in 2012.
