Are you feeling overwhelmed? Struggling with stressful transitions in your life, such as career changes or relationship difficulties? Do you have mood swings or anxious thoughts? Can’t “turn off your mind”? Unable to pull yourself out of a “dark place”? Then I may be able to help.
I have over 30 years of experience in the treatment of a wide range of mental health concerns and specialize in working with professionals, young and mature adults, LGBT and women’s issues. My focus is on mood, anxiety and stress management and healthy transition and adjustment.
I am a Board-Certified Telehealth Professional.
My passion is to help people going through difficult life transitions. Many events in life can affect our stability; divorce, retirement, grief and loss, illness, accidents, losing your job, or living through a pandemic. Sometimes it's even hard to know why we feel how we feel. I help individuals, and also couples, overcome these difficulties.
I believe in forming a positive relationship with my clients, by providing them with a safe and nonjudgmental environment, empathy, genuine and a collaborative effort. I believe psychotherapy is an essential tool for today's society in order to cope with life stressors, ailments and psychological distress and trauma. Ultimately, my goal is to promote positive changes in my clients life, help alleviate emotional distress and help create healthy relationships within their lives and community.
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Certified Sex Therapist
Are you concerned about your sex life? As a sex therapist, I am passionate about helping clients navigate identity, relationships, or behaviors related to sex.
I'm a Flagler College alumnus ('95) and recently moved back to Saint Augustine with my wife and our three children. I've started my own practice, Elbow Tree Christian Counseling, because I wanted to paint the walls my own color, bring my dog to the office and wear flip flops!
