How it works

I see adults, from young adults to older adults, one on one by secure video, anywhere in Florida. You skip the commute and the waiting room. You log in from a private spot, and we get to work.

Plenty of people talk more easily from their own couch, holding their own coffee mug, than from a chair in a stranger's office. Video lets you start where you already feel settled.

What I help with

Pick a topic

People also come to me for substance use and co-occurring disorders, ADHD and neurodivergence, grief and loss, self-esteem, and questions about LGBTQ+ identity and inclusion.

The research

Does online therapy actually work?

Video sessions use the same methods I'd use across a desk from you.

Well-researched talk therapy can be done over video, and seeing a therapist on a screen has become an ordinary way to get mental health care.

That doesn't make it right for everyone. Whether it fits depends on what you're dealing with, how private your space is, your tech, any safety concerns, and what kind of treatment you need.

I've done behavioral health work over video since 2020. It started with large online groups during the pandemic and grew into a full outpatient psychotherapy caseload.

For me, telehealth is not an emergency substitute for “real therapy.”

It is where I have done a substantial portion of my clinical work.

Skip the drive

Easier to get to

A therapy appointment shouldn't eat half your day once you add the drive, the parking, and the wait.

Transportation, disability, work schedules, caregiving, anxiety, geography, illness, and plain old Florida traffic can make getting to an office a lot harder than the therapy itself.

Video takes a few of those off the table.

You do still need somewhere private to talk and internet that won't freeze every five minutes.

Any room where you can shut the door and won't be overheard works, like a home office or bedroom. A parked car is fine too, as long as you're not driving.

If you can talk freely and you're safe where you are, we can usually make it work.

What you need

A phone, tablet, or computer with a camera.
Internet that holds up for the whole session.
A room where you can close the door and not be overheard.
To be in Florida during each session. I am licensed in Florida (LCSW SW27230), so that is where you need to be while we meet.

Where

Who can I see?

I provide telehealth psychotherapy to adults who are physically located in Florida at the time of the session.

You don't have to live anywhere near me.

Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, Pensacola, Key West, or a fish camp off a county road with decent WiFi, all fine.

Florida is Florida.

In session

What sessions are like

Sessions are mostly back-and-forth conversation, and I won't lecture you. We start with what's weighing on you most, look at what you've already tried (including what didn't work), and build from there. I pull from CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and solution-focused work, and when I suggest a skill, I'll tell you why. You don't need to arrive with a plan.

Using your insurance

I'm in network with several insurance plans, and the current list lives on the Insurance page. If your plan isn't there yet, private pay may be an option. Booking is the same either way.

Before you book

Common questions

These are the questions I hear most. The FAQ page has the rest.

What happens in the first session?

Mostly, we get to know each other. You don't need to bring answers or walk me through your whole life story. We start with whatever's on top for you and talk about what you'd like to be different. By the end, we'll have a couple of first priorities, and you'll have a sense of whether I'm the right therapist for you.

Do I have to be in Florida?

Yes. I am licensed in Florida, so you need to be located in Florida during each session.

Do you prescribe medication?

No. I'm a psychotherapist, not a psychiatrist, so prescribing isn't part of what I do. If you're on medication or wondering whether it would help, keep working with your doctor or psychiatrist on that side of things.

Is therapy confidential?

Yes, with a few exceptions the law requires, such as when someone is at serious risk of harm. We go over these at the start so there are no surprises.

What it costs: your plan’s copay or coinsurance if I am in network, 20% after the deductible with Original Medicare, or the private pay rate. See costs
