Welcome! Taking the initial step to seek therapy and find the right mental health counselor can be a daunting task, but one that is well worth the time. I appreciate your efforts in the process and commend you for deciding to take control of your life. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (MH20857) and specialize in anxiety, trauma, and stress management.
Located in Central Florida, I offer in-person counseling and therapy services at my Winter Springs office, as well as online teletherapy for adults throughout Florida. KNW Counseling is well-positioned to serve individuals in Winter Springs and the surrounding areas, including Oviedo, Winter Park, Casselberry, Longwood, Sanford, and Lake Mary.
If you find yourself grappling with overwhelming emotions, anxiety, or entrenched patterns of self-sabotaging thoughts and behaviors, you have arrived at the right place. I specialize in addressing complex trauma (C-PTSD), PTSD, anxiety disorders, and stress management. Additionally, I offer support for individuals managing relational stress or recovery from toxic relationships.
My approach to therapy is grounded in evidence-based treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). As a trauma-informed therapist, I prioritize a comprehensive and depth-oriented approach, customizing treatment plans to meet your unique needs and goals.
I have been working with individuals and families, practicing mental health counseling in Orlando across a variety of settings over the years. It is possible to find peace, confidence, and purpose. Please don't hesitate to reach out - I am happy to answer any additional questions you might have.
