I am a Florida state licensed, nationally certified, Mental Health Counselor.
I completed my BS degree in Psychology from Saint Leo College in 1993.
I earned an MS degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern
University and was awarded certification as a Sex Therapist from The American
Academy of Clinical Sexology. I am currently a doctoral student, with a study focus
on Psychology and childhood sexual abuse.
I consider my therapeutic approach to be eclectic ~ in that I take from many models
and use them in ways that best fit each individual I work with. I tend to lean on a
more cognitive-behavioral approach, but often blend psycho-dynamic principles in
when working with adult survivors of childhood trauma/abuse. I view clients as
equal to me, in a collaborative partnership when working toward client goals.
Dedicated to the healing arts, my experiences include working as a Hospice
Counselor and I have worked in Community Mental Health. I am comfortable
working with a wide variety of issues to include mood and anxiety disorders, sexual
addiction, trans gender issues and couples intimacy enrichment. In addition, I have
extensive experience working with persons challenged with dissociative and trauma
related disorders.
I am a firm supporter of personal growth and the educational process.
I enjoy working with groups as well as individuals and couples. I have conducted
groups and workshops on stress and anger management, domestic violence,
bereavement, sex addiction, transsexuals in transition and trauma resolution.
Additionally, I teach in higher education as an adjunct professor.
I am a member of the Society for Sex Therapy and Research (SSTAR), President
of The Tampa Bay Association for Women Psychotherapists (TBAWP); former
President of the Tampa Bay Study Group on Trauma and Dissociation.
