Anger Management Therapists in Florida

I’ve always carried a deep desire to help people. My first career law enforcement. However, it did not really allow me to really dig in with individuals and help them make changes so they were not continuing the same cycles over and over. I returned to school and pursued my education in behavioral science and then mental health counseling, graduating with my Master’s degree in 2013. I've treated clients in residential treatment, intensive outpatient treatment, community mental health, and in a low to high security, all male state prison. I've worked with individuals from every walk of life. As a therapist and human being I’m always motivated to learn and grow. One of my passions is Equine Assisted Psychotherapy. I have been trained in and previously held certification in the Equine Assisted Growth & Education model. I also earned my EAGALA Military Services Designation to provide culturally competent services to our military members and their families. Another passion is working with our first responders, giving back to those to give so much daily.

Hi! Thanks for checking out my page. Considering a new therapist can be overwhelming, so let me tell you a little about myself: I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Intern which means I am qualified to provide therapy in the state of Florida. I am a wife and mom of boys, and my great privilege in life is to listen to other people's stories and support them in their personal growth through a relational and collaborative approach to therapy. A trusting therapeutic relationship can make or break your therapy experience. I do not subscribe to any one type of therapeutic modality because everyone is different and has unique needs! That being said, some conditions show improved responses with particular interventions; if I feel like I cannot provide the particular type of therapeutic intervention you need I will be up-front and honest about that, and willing to help you find another suitable therapist. I currently only offer telehealth to Florida residents and do not accept any insurance. If you cannot afford my rate I may be able to accommodate you on a sliding scale that is .01% of your income. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation if you would like more information about me or this process. Take good care.
