Therapists in Palm Harbor, FL

I’m the best marriage & family counselor in the world! All right, maybe not THE best, but I’m pretty darned good, and I get great outcomes! I believe in teaching people what’s healthy, and then guide them along the way. I call it Applied Human Growth & Potential™ and here’s why. We have so much research about what healthy and effective people do that it makes absolutely no sense to hang out and spend good money with a referee just trying to solve problems. Learn what is healthy and effective, have support in doing it, and you’re good to go! That’s what I do. I make counseling fun and “simply encouraging.” I help people to relax, breathe and smile with the “serious issues” since it leaves more energy to move beyond them. For premarital counseling, marital enhancement, or for help if you’re on the more challenging side of things, then give me a call. And by the way, I work with individuals too.

Does you life feel like it isn't working for you? Do you want to change negative ideas and dsyfunctional behaviors; let go of negative painful feelings and patterns of behavior that keep repeating? For 28 years I have been in practive to help clients develop positive beliefs, feelings, and behaviors that serve to help them feel they are true to themselves, positively connected to others, can manage what challenges them, and live with a sense of respectful self-acceptance knowing they can trust themselves and life. I would treasure helping you feel and live this way.

My practice is generally focused on adolescents and young adults. Adolescence is a time of constant growth, of which can often be coupled with fear and feelings of inadequacy. It is normal for adolescents to seek autonomy and gain independence but they may feel uncertain about their ability to do so. External pressures and responsibilities can increase feelings of anxiety and depression. In addition, the current trend of social isolation can intensify negative feelings. A trusted mental health counselor can assist such children in developing effective communication and coping strategies.

Therapy is not for the faint of heart. Being open, honest and vulnerable is not easy - but with it - comes the insight, capacity and motivation to learn from our past and present patterns and decide if we want to do things differently. I believe each of us is capable of great things limited only by our own thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviors - all of which are within our control and power to change. By working through old programming, limiting beliefs and making the unconscious conscious, the world is your oyster. Are you ready to love your life? Come work with me. The best is yet to be!

I believe effective therapy starts with developing strong empathy as the foundation for establishing our therapeutic agenda and working with you to determine the tools you find most helpful in resolving problems. I provide a brief, well researched mood survey at the beginning and end of initial sessions & you evaluate me & our therapy session so I can learn how to work better with you. Getting feedback after a session helps me to understand you better and that expedites treatment. I will teach you very powerful tools to use in changing how you feel in a very short period. Therapy can be effective in weeks instead of months

Welcome. Allow me to provide you with an idea about my view on counseling others: while working for an agency several years ago, one of my social work colleagues had her caseload of clients increased substantially. When I asked her how she would manage more client’s, she replied with “oh I love meeting new people.” That philosophy is one that also share. I’m a big believer in the importance of rapport building. Working together and along side individuals is essential for a therapeutic relationship.

Welcome! I believe that we are all capable of personal and positive growth. I would love to guide you on your journey to healing and increase your overall quality of life. I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey that builds upon one’s personal strengths and goals to find clarity to questions or challenges you may be facing.
