I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Arizona. I received my Doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision from Barry University. I have been a counselor for the past 13 years and have developed expertise in many areas known as “geek therapy” as well as holding several certifications for the treatment of process addictions (gambling, video games, etc.). Other issues I routinely treat include relationship issues, task management / motivation / procrastination, academic struggles, and many sources of anxiety or depression people face in the regular flow of daily living. I am also a psychology researcher specializing in video game topics and have contributed multiple publications on player types during gameplay, insights for online education, and many other clinical topics if you are interested in knowing about my other work in the field of counseling. I provide counseling services for Individual, Couples, & Families, and am excited to work with all ranges of age from adolescent to older adult groups. I am a graduate school professor, so in most cases my approach can be tailored to the needs of my individual client. I have spent many years developing my ability to manage client conversations through the lenses of Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution-Focused / Brief, Mindfulness / Acceptance-Commitment, Existential / Person-Centered, and also Narrative therapies. My approach and treatment plans are always chosen based on the needs of the client I am talking to in those moments, so your goals will always be your own when you are working with me. We will work at your pace and decide together what the best path is for your specific journey. I am excited to meet you and provide the support you are looking for to continue your life’s journey!
