Basic Information

In-person & Online

Services

Helping people navigate anxiety, stress, and attention differences, I focus on practical steps that fit your everyday routines and priorities. From Winter Garden, Florida and through secure online appointments conducted in English, sessions move at a steady, manageable pace with room for reflection. We set short-term goals, practice mindfulness and cognitive strategies in-session, and use brief between-session tasks to test what works in real life. This style tends to help students and early-career adults seeking concrete, steady support.
