A Personalized and holistic approach
A Personalized and holistic approach
As a certified trauma therapist, I use a holistic approach to counseling based on the individual's needs. I am certified EMDR, DBT therapist, trained in Acceptance and Commitment therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress reduction, Cognitive processing, Cognitive Behavioral and Solution Focused therapy as well as Motivational Interviewing. I offer an integrative approach to counseling to First Responders including healthcare, adult corporate professionals as well as health and wellness coaching. My niche is anxiety, trauma and PTSD. I also specialized in substance abuse and am a certified addiction professional (CAP) from the Florida Certification Board. At Steps2serenity, I believe in the mind, body, spirit connection. It is important to understand how your negative thoughts are contributing to unhealthy behaviors causing you to spiral. I provide my clients with a safe, non-threatening environment using an integrative approach to wellness. I help my clients find lasting solutions to
life challenges while making lifestyle modifications. I will work with you in developing a personalized treatment plan in order to help you fully resolve the problem which brought you into counseling. Whatever circumstances that you find yourself in, I am here to help! Let's partner together and take the first step to health and healing!
