NEW: Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy

Ketamine-assisted therapy in Fort Lauderdale has shown great promise in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, substance use disorders, and more. Studies suggest that ketamine’s mood-boosting and calming effects, when paired with therapy, can lead to profound and lasting improvements in mental wellness.

As a therapist for life transitions in Fort Lauderdale, I offer ketamine-assisted therapy to support you through difficult changes, emotional challenges, and moments of growth. You can experience ketamine therapy in the way that suits you best – whether from the comfort of home through online therapy, in-person sessions, or within a supportive group setting at one of our retreats.

Ketamine – Assisted Therapy

With nearly 24 years of clinical experience, my approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that you are not broken and you don’t need to be ‘fixed’. The challenges that bring people to therapy are often meaningful signals, pointing toward areas of unmet needs, unresolved experiences, or patterns that once served a purpose but no longer do.

Rather than focusing solely on what feels “wrong,” I work to understand your experiences within the broader context of your life, relationships, and nervous system. Symptoms such as anxiety, disconnection, or emotional overwhelm are approached with curiosity and care, not judgment. When we slow down and gently listen to what these experiences are communicating, therapy becomes a space for insight, empowerment, and sustainable change.

Many clients discover that turning toward their struggles – at a pace that feels safe – can open the door to greater self-understanding, emotional resilience, and clarity in relationships. This process of self-discovery is at the heart of my work and one of the most meaningful aspects of practicing therapy in Fort Lauderdale. A healthy, fulfilling life is deeply connected to emotional and relational well-being. Therapy can support you in navigating life transitions, strengthening relationships, reducing distress, and developing new ways of relating to yourself and others. If you’re considering therapy, I invite you to reach out and explore whether this work feels like the right fit for you.

Talking to Find Solutions

Talking to a therapist often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, and significant reductions in feelings of distress. A favorite quote of mine that makes so much sense to my philosophy on therapy is:

“Healing is based on the premise that it is not people or situations in the past that cause us to be upset. It is ultimately our thoughts and attitudes about those people and situations in the present that cause us distress. What causes us to lose our peace is not other people, but our own thoughts, judgments, and attitudes about them.”

When emotional or relational challenges begin to feel heavy, having the right kind of support can make a meaningful difference. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and find new ways forward. I offer both in-person and online sessions, creating flexible, supportive care that meets you where you are.

Effective Therapy Techniques

I use a variety of techniques to find what will work best.

These include:

  • Individual Counseling Services – Therapy is a collaborative process where we explore what’s not working and gently move toward greater clarity, stability, and self-trust.
  • Marriage Counseling Services – When challenges arise in a relationship, therapy can offer a space to slow things down, understand what’s happening between you, and explore new ways of relating. Many relationship struggles are rooted not in a lack of care, but in patterns of communication that have become strained or hard to navigate. Through thoughtful, supportive counseling, we work together to foster greater understanding, connection, and healthier relational growth.
  • Family Counseling Services – Family therapy is a process through which family members learn to communicate more effectively with one another. My role as a family therapist is to facilitate understanding and healing within the family unit.

Our work may include a range of thoughtful, evidence-based approaches—such as reflective dialogue, gentle reframing, mindfulness and awareness practices, and simple between-session exercises that support insight and integration. These tools are offered collaboratively and at a pace that feels supportive, helping you build greater emotional steadiness and resilience over time.

Taking that first step toward therapy can lead to a more fulfilling life. Whether you’re looking for in-person or online sessions, my counseling services are designed to meet your needs.
