I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida. I have training in evidence-based therapeutic approaches that help individuals and couples better understand their emotions, improve communication, and develop healthier patterns in their lives and relationships.

I do not but would be happy to refer you to a list of psychiatrists that do so.

Because I practice CBT and believe strongly in healthy habits, I often assign clients homework to help speed their progress and make the most of their time in session. However, every person is different and has different needs at different times. My goal is to help you REDUCE the overwhelm, not add to it. So if you are a teen, for example, overwhelmed with extracurriculars and homework up the wazoo, your homework from me may look like scheduling a 5 minute break between 3 20 minute bite size sessions of homework. Or writing 3 things in a daily gratitude journal. The goal is to help clear your plate in a way that works for you; not add to it.

Yes! Telehealth is perfect for those who do not have childcare, time to commute to the office (think lunch break), or for those who want therapy in their pajamas (although that is also welcome in the office).

I work with individuals and couples experiencing anxiety, overwhelm, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Many of the clients I work with are navigating the transition to parenthood, feeling mentally overloaded, or wanting to improve communication in their relationships.

Unless you cancel more than 24 hours in advance via text message, you are still responsible for the cost of your session. If you show up late, that time just gets deducted from your session. After 15 minutes, your spot is forfeited and you are still responsible for the time.
This helps protect my time, but also your commitment to following through with therapy, which can be hard work!

The frequency of therapy depends on each individual or family’s goals. Most clients choose to come once a week, then drop down to every other week, or even monthly for maintenance.
-
In the first session we will discuss:
+your mental health history (including family briefly)
+parents main concerns for kids then individual main concerns (with parents out of room if applicable)
+goals/treatment plan
+brief psychoeducation about the therapy process
-
Therapy is 100% confidential unless you or somebody else is potentially at risk of serious harm, death, or abuse. Parents will sign a waiver for kids + teens to protect their confidentiality. While we are all on the same team, therapy works best with a strong therapeutic relationship. This is built on trust.
-
If your paperwork is completed ahead of time, perfect. Some people want to come and chat off the cuff where others feel more comfortable jotting down a few pain or talking points in their journal. Do what works for you. Remember that the goal is to give you what you need; so whatever you need for that; bring that.
