I couldn't have asked for a better counselor. Jenny helped me break down my issues so that I could deal with them pragmatically and I now have the tools to solve problems on my own. She was genuinely interested in improving my wellbeing. Thank you.

Ready to find a happier you? I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over 7 years experience working with individuals, groups, couples and families.

I earned an MA in Mental Health Counseling and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida (#MH10829). I have worked in a variety of counseling settings, including: residential and outpatient addiction treatment facilities, mental health agencies and school settings. My treatment approach is eclectic- employing techniques from various theories including Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused and Choice Theory. My counseling style is compassionate, interactive and professional. As a helping professional, I emphasize mental wellness versus mental illness and believe that there are many roads to wellness. I will tailor your treatment to your specific goals and needs.

You deserve to be the happiest and healthiest you, you can be. It takes courage to take the first steps toward change and I would be honored to help you on that journey.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
