Walking Through the Valley,
Guiding You to Your Mountaintop

I know what it’s like to feel lost in the valley—burdened by expectations, battling burnout, and craving peace. That’s why I help adults find clarity, emotional balance, and purpose through faith-informed, evidence-based therapy.

I Know What It’s Like to Feel Stuck

Maybe you’ve checked all the boxes—education, career, relationships—but still feel like something’s missing. You overthink every decision, constantly battle the need to prove your worth, or carry the weight of faith, culture, and expectations that no longer align with who you truly are. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out alone either.

​

I understand because I’ve walked this road, too. Raised by a single immigrant mother, I learned how to adapt, overachieve, and survive. But for years, I was stuck—never fully belonging in one space or another. It wasn’t until I did my own inner healing work that I realized: true growth isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about coming home to who you were always meant to be.​

Healing Isn’t Just Possible—It’s the Path Back to Who You Really Are

With decades of lived experience and a deep understanding of faith and healing, I’m here to walk with you toward freedom and purpose. Through evidence-based therapy, biblical wisdom, and holistic healing, I help clients like you rewrite old narratives, break free from toxic cycles, and step into a life of confidence, clarity, and faith-driven purpose.

Healing is a journey—much like hiking through unknown terrain. The valley may feel dark, but the mountaintop is waiting. Together, we’ll navigate the uncharted trails, clear the mental fog, and help you step into the fullness of who God created you to be.

Clinical Experience & Professional Background

With over 20 years in the mental health field and an additional decade in education and the South Florida film industry, I bring a unique, creative, and comprehensive perspective to healing. My lived experience shapes my work—I don’t just teach from textbooks; I’ve walked the path myself. Now, I focus on guiding high-achieving women, professionals, and those healing from cultural and faith-based identity struggles toward transformation. My work blends evidence-based therapy, neuroscience, and biblical wisdom to help my clients break free from limiting beliefs and step into their true identity. I specialize in faith-based therapy for perfectionism, anxiety, self-worth struggles, and religious trauma healing, offering a safe space for those who want to heal without losing their faith. With years of experience helping high-achieving women, professionals, and those navigating cultural and faith-based identity struggles, I am committed to walking alongside you on your path to transformation.

Key Milestones in My Career:

  • Cross Creek School (2004): Completed a year-long practicum at a Cognitive Behavioral Therapeutic K-12 school, working alongside psychiatrists, nurses, and licensed clinicians to support students under psychiatric care.

  • Friends of Children (2007-2012): Served as an independent contracted therapist for a community mental health nonprofit, providing in-home and school-based therapy to underserved BIPOC communities.

  • Personal Journey (2012-2018): Took a hiatus from clinical work to care for my son after his traumatic brain injury. This experience deepened my passion for neurobiology, alternative healing, and holistic wellness.

  • Ascend Academy (2018-2021): Appointed as the Crisis Intervention Counselor at an alternative high school following the Stoneman Douglas tragedy, where I was the sole therapist supporting students and faculty.

  • Through the Valley Therapy (2020-Present): Founded my private practice in response to a divine calling, focusing on faith-integrated therapy for high-achieving women and professionals navigating identity, perfectionism, anxiety, and self-worth challenges. My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), biblical wisdom, and integrative mental health practices, including gut-brain health, nervous system regulation, and holistic wellness strategies. I prioritize whole-person healing, addressing the mind-body connection to help my clients cultivate lasting emotional and spiritual well-being, all while honoring their faith and personal values.

​

I believe true healing doesn’t come from just managing symptoms—it comes from doing the deep, transformative work that restores your mind, body, and spirit. Now, I focus on mentorship, coaching, and therapy for adults ready to step into their God-given purpose. If you’re tired of feeling stuck and want a guide who understands both faith and psychology, I’d love to walk this journey with you.
