Florida Educators and School Leaders:
You Lead.
You Carry.
You Deserve Support.
Drawing on my experience as a licensed therapist and former school and district leader, I offer personalized, highly confidential counseling and therapy for Florida educators, principals, assistant principals, and district administrators.
Whether you're seeking greater clarity, emotional resilience, or support in navigating symptoms of overwhelm, anxiety, or burnout, I invite you to reach out.
While EAPs can offer a helpful starting point, many educators and school leaders find that the support is brief, generalized, or not tailored to the unique emotional demands of their role. My practice offers a deeper, more personalized approach—grounded in clinical expertise and lived experience within school systems.
Therapy offers a restorative space to pause, reflect, and realign, so you can continue leading and living with strength, purpose, and authenticity.
If you have questions or want to explore how we might work together, reach out today. Your emotional wellbeing is not a luxury. It’s essential.
You’ve Held Space for Everyone Else. Now It’s Your Turn.
As a Florida-based school educator or leader, you’ve led through storms, both literally and emotionally. You’ve supported staff through personal and professional challenges, advocated fiercely for students, and carried the weight of impossible expectations with grace. You’ve shown up for everyone else. But who holds space for you?
As a licensed mental health therapist with over a decade in school and district leadership, I am passionate supporting educators, principals, assistant principals, district leaders, and administrators who are navigating the complex emotional terrain of serving in public education. You don’t have to carry it alone.
The Emotional Weight
You’ve absorbed the pain of others- students in crisis, staff in distress, families in conflict. Over time, this can lead to:
• Secondary traumatic stress
• Emotional exhaustion and chronic stress
• Anxiety, sleep disruption, and decision fatigue
The Pressure to Perform
Even when you're struggling, you keep leading. You may be experiencing:
• Burnout masked by high-functioning leadership or work ethic
• Perfectionism and the quiet pressure to never falter
• Managing emotionally charged decisions amid public scrutiny, legislative and district shifts, and resource limitations
The Personal Toll
Your commitment to those you serve doesn’t end when the school day does. You may feel:
• The erosion of personal relationships and emotional availability
• Chronic hypervigilance, always bracing for the next crisis
• Quiet questioning of your career direction, identity, or long-term sustainability
Whether you’re in the thick of it or quietly unraveling behind closed doors, therapy offers a restorative space to pause, reflect, and rebuild. No need to perform. No need to explain. Just a place to show up exactly as you are, so you can continue showing up for others with clarity, strength, and sustainability.
If you’re ready to reclaim space for yourself, I invite you to reach out. Your wellbeing isn’t a luxury. It’s a necessity.
Support From Someone Who’s Been There
I bring over two decades of experience in education, as a teacher, counselor, principal, assistant principal, and Director of Mental Health Services for one of Florida’s largest school districts. I understand the culture, the politics, and the pressure.
My practice is intentionally designed outside the constraints of insurance. That means:
• No formal diagnosis required. Nothing is added to your medical record, and no label is needed to justify support. Therapy here is about helping you lead with clarity, intention, and sustainability—not exhaustion.
• No third-party reporting or limitations.
• Greater confidentiality, flexibility, and autonomy in your care.
This allows us to focus fully on you, without fitting your experience into a diagnostic box or rigid session structure.
I offer flexible session formats tailored to your needs and the realities of school leadership:
Whether you're navigating chronic stress, high-conflict dynamics, anxiety, or overwhelm, therapy can be a space to recalibrate, reset, and renew your ability to serve with strength.
Reduced Rate for Educators and School and District Leaders
As part of my commitment to supporting public education and the emotional wellbeing of those who serve our students, I reserve a limited number of reduced-rate spots at $135 per 50-minute session for educators and school leaders navigating chronic stress, burnout, trauma, grief/loss, anxiety, parenting concerns, or transition.
Intensive/Accelerated Support
Some clients prefer intensive, accelerated sessions as opposed to the more typical weekly counseling. This approach may be helpful if you're navigating a major life transition, experiencing burnout, or seeking deeper therapeutic work in a shorter timeframe. It’s especially well-suited for professionals who want focused support without committing to ongoing weekly sessions.
This format is also ideal for those experiencing a recent trauma and seeking an EMDR intensive to process distressing memories in a contained, accelerated way. EMDR intensives allow for deeper work without the fragmentation that can occur in shorter sessions, and may support faster symptom relief and emotional integration.
All accelerated/intensive support is tailored to meet your needs and may include trauma processing, leadership recalibration, or emotional reset work.
All intensive sessions are booked along with an intake session and at least one 50-minute follow-up session.
If you are interested in an intensive/accelerated support option, fees for educators and leaders will be based on the reduced rate.
