Welcome!
I am so happy and excited that you have made the decision to start the process of improving your particular life situation. I understand what a fearful and powerful decision this can be and I applaud you! It can be very overwhelming and confusing to begin the therapy process. It is common to feel a variety of emotions, including fear, anxiety, and uncertainty, but I want you to understand that you’ve already completed one of the most difficult steps, which is asking for help. You might already be on your way to a happier and more fulfilling life and you didn’t even realize it. Take hope and pride in this step, allowing it to carry you to your next step and beyond.
"You don't have to get stuck in a negative experience. You don't have to be a victim to external events, or internal emotions. You can use your mind to take charge of how you feel, and how you act."
-Dan Siegel
I want you to understand that you are not alone in this process and we can work together to help you feel better. Building happier and more fulfilling lives can involve challenging goals, but with gentle guidance and understanding, these goals can become a reality. As a licensed psychologist in the state of Florida with 17 years of clinical experience, I offer both short-term counseling and long-term psychotherapy with adults. I have worked with all types of concerns and issues, ranging from short-term career counseling to more long-term, complicated mental health issues. My approach to therapy involves a collaborative and active process that puts the client in charge, thereby fostering self-confidence, independence, and respect. I believe this approach is also a key factor in long-term success. Please call today to make your appointment so we can get started.
