Individual Counseling

I have a passion for helping individuals and couples create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. My path to counseling wasn’t linear—it zigzagged through newsrooms, production sets, and even a few continents—but every twist along the way deepened my understanding of people and the stories that shape them.

Born in the Midwest and raised in China, I grew up surrounded by diverse perspectives and cultures that taught me how connection transcends language. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Telecommunications from the University of Florida (Go Gators!) with dreams of a career in journalism, which later took me to Los Angeles to work in television production. There, I met people from all walks of life and discovered that what I loved most wasn’t just telling stories—it was hearing them.

Eventually, I started my own company and returned to Florida to start a family. Through it all, I realized my true calling was not just to tell stories but to help people rewrite their own. Now, I’m channeling that lifelong curiosity, creativity, and empathy into the field of mental health, where I work with adolescents, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, executive functioning challenges, grief, and the ever-complicated adventure of parenting.

When I’m not in session, you can usually find me running, hiking, reading, or taking advantage of my ridiculous amount of memberships (Tampa Zoo, Florida Aquarium, Ananda Farms—to name a few). I love Lagree fitness, catching comedy shows, exploring new restaurants, and cheering for the Bucs with too much emotional investment. My guilty pleasures include true crime and chocolate, and my happy places are anywhere with a salty breeze or a mountain view. Above all, my children are my greatest teachers and daily reminder of what truly matters.
