About
I am a licensed mental health counselor, based in Florida, with a Master's degree in professional counseling, emphasis on marriage and family, special populations, consulting and school counseling from Webster University, Bachelor's degree in criminology and human services from Saint Leo University and an Associate's degree in Paralegal Studies from the College of Central Florida. I am a Florida Supreme Court certified dependency mediator and credentialed instructor for the Department of Children and Families. I teach a bi-annual class on how to recognize trauma in children. I have 12 years experience as a counselor, and enjoy working with persons who have experienced ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and other traumas. I believe, it is important for the therapist to understand the cultural "language" spoken, even before a word is uttered. When a client feels they are understood, it builds trust. There are some who have been culturally conditioned to believe that therapy breaks tradition, or signifies a lack of faith. These are myths. As a therapist.
