Best Cape Coral therapists near me

I am a dedicated and empathetic Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral concerns, life transitions, and self-esteem issues. My experience includes supporting clients in both school and social settings, helping them manage peer relationships, academic stress, and emotional regulation. My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Play Therapy, and Psychodynamic techniques. I also incorporate mindfulness and holistic strategies to support emotional and spiritual well-being. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and collaborative space where clients of all ages feel seen, heard, and empowered to grow. I believe healing happens when individuals are given the tools to connect the dots between their experiences, patterns, and goals. Together, we’ll uncover your strengths and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

With over 16 years of counseling experience, my goal is to assist clients in finding solutions to issues that may be presenting challenges for them. With a caring listening ear in a nonjudgmental environment, the focus is to empower clients to create meaningful change through therapy sessions. Being grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices, I ensure each client feels heard, and understood. I am deeply passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and adults as they navigate life’s challenges, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, anger management, PTSD, and self-esteem concerns. Some of the treatment approaches used in therapy include Client Center, CBT, REBT, Solution Focused and Motivational Interviewing. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental environment where individuals can explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and build a stronger sense of self-worth. My goal is to help clients uncover their strengths, gain clarity, and create a path toward personal growth and resilience.

For more than thirty years, my life’s work has helped clients achieve freedom—both on their favorite "stage" and in their lives. My practical, action-oriented approach to therapy is a unique balance of gentleness and challenge. I specialize in building resilience, guiding clients to face their fears, overcoming limiting beliefs, processing grief, and taking charge of their lives. My work integrates the essential task of addressing unresolved “stuff” from the past with the development of skills to create a vibrant and fulfilling future. I deeply value the power of meaningful relationships. I love coaching parents and partners committed to bettering themselves, to better their relationships. I believe the relationship we cultivate with ourselves deserves equal care and compassion. Together, we’ll uncover your “best self” and bring it forward to navigate the challenges of today’s world. It would be my privilege to be your healing partner on your adventure today.
