Florida
You're not broken. You're ready to reconnect with the healing already within you.
Florida residents seeking online therapy can now access specialized support designed to help you reconnect with your innate healing abilities. I provide virtual therapy sessions to adults throughout the Sunshine State, from Jacksonville to Miami and everywhere in between. Whether you live in a metropolitan area or a quieter coastal community, you can receive professional therapeutic support from the comfort of your own home.
Online therapy in Florida offers a unique opportunity to work with a practitioner who specializes in body-based approaches that go beyond traditional talk therapy. My practice focuses on helping you understand how limitations show up in your life and learning to work with them as valuable information rather than obstacles to overcome. Through secure video sessions, I bring specialized therapeutic modalities directly to you, eliminating barriers like traffic and commute times that often prevent Florida residents from prioritizing their mental health.
A Different Approach to Healing
My therapeutic philosophy centers on a fundamental belief that you already possess the capacity for healing. Rather than approaching therapy as a process of fixing what is broken, I focus on helping you connect with abilities and resources you already have. This perspective shifts the therapeutic relationship from one where I solve your problems to one where we collaborate in your healing journey.
The limitations you experience, whether they manifest as anxiety, depression, trauma responses, or nervous system dysregulation, are not flaws to be eliminated. They represent your system's best attempts to protect you. When we understand limitations as information rather than problems, we can begin to navigate based on who you actually are.
Specialized Therapeutic Modalities
I offer four primary therapeutic approaches, each chosen for its ability to work with the body and nervous system rather than relying solely on verbal processing.
Brainspotting uses the relationship between eye position and brain activity to access and process material that may be difficult to reach through conversation alone. This modality is particularly effective for trauma, anxiety, and performance issues.
Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a listening-based intervention that works directly with the nervous system through specially filtered music. This approach is valuable for individuals whose nervous systems have become stuck in states of hypervigilance or shutdown.
Accelerated Resourcing focuses on building and strengthening your internal resources before and during the processing of difficult material, preventing overwhelm during challenging work.
Somatic Experiencing addresses the way traumatic stress becomes stored in the body, working with physical sensations and impulses to release stored survival energy and restore natural regulation.
What to Expect When Working with Me
We start with a free 30-minute consultation where we discuss what brings you to therapy and whether my approach feels like a good fit. This conversation is genuinely exploratory, giving us both the information needed to make a thoughtful decision.
If we move forward, onboarding involves simple paperwork and an intake form. Our first session focuses on getting to know each other, identifying initial goals, and laying out a general plan. I also provide psychoeducation about the concepts we will build on together.
Once care is established, you can schedule your own appointments or book them during sessions. I generally do not assign homework, trusting that our session work integrates naturally. Sessions follow a consistent structure: we discuss targets at the start, devote the middle to processing, and end with time to debrief. I respond to emails within one business day.
Who I Work With
My practice serves adults and couples throughout Florida who are ready to explore approaches beyond traditional talk therapy. I work with people dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, overwhelm, nervous system dysregulation, and neurological conditions such as strokes and traumatic brain injuries.
The adults who benefit most from my approach are willing to explore how their history, coping skills, thought patterns, and temperament contribute to current limitations. They are open to shifting from purely cognitive approaches into feeling and focusing on intentions. Most importantly, they are willing to redefine success beyond simple relief, exploring new ways of understanding what is present and responding based on what actually works for them.

Traditional talk therapy focuses on cognitive content and verbal narratives. My modalities work directly with the nervous system and body, accessing material that conversation alone may not reach.
