Hope-Focused Soul Care
ANXIETY, GRIEF, TRAUMA
Whether you need help coping with the stress of the present, anxiety of the future, or healing from the trauma and abuse of the past, I provide a therapeutic space and guidance for you along your journey. I enjoy being a support person for you, while teaching the skills and tools you need to express your grief and pain in a healthy way, as you work through losses in life. Let's work to identify harmful and unhealthy patterns that you can change in order to enhance your life.
HELPING PROFESSIONALS
If you’re a caregiver or helping professional and it feels like you’re caring for others to the point that it’s causing you pain and suffering, you may need some help with recognizing and managing the symptoms associated with Compassion Fatigue. When you focus on helping others without practicing self-care, it’s possible for unhealthy behaviors to start surfacing. I can help create a plan of health and wellness.
RELATIONSHIP ISSUES
You live your life in relationships. They can hurt us and they can heal us. If you’re in an unhealthy relationship with yourself, someone else, or God that hurts the majority of the time, I’d like to hear about where you are and help point you toward health and wholeness. Unhealthy patterns and unhealed trauma often result in feelings of emptiness, numbness, and a wounding of the soul.
ABOUT ME
I take a holistic, integrative approach to counseling in which working towards health includes not only our physical but also our emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. With a passion for missionary care and cross-cultural counseling, I served with a team in Southeast Asia and worked in Texas counseling refugees. I've enjoyed traveling to countries in South Asia, as well as Central America, to provide counseling services and trainings in the areas of disaster mental health and trauma. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the State of Florida who is clinically trained and offers counseling in a compassionate and confidential atmosphere.

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE NOTICE TO CLIENTS AND PROSPECTIVE CLIENTS
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers need to give clients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service, or at any time during treatment.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, or how to dispute a bill, see your Estimate, or visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
