Welcome to Graceful Growth Counseling

---

Taking the first step can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate it alone. My goal is to make the process simple, comfortable, and supportive from the very beginning. Whether this is your first experience with counseling or you're returning after time away, I'm here to help you! 

Click the button to request your first appointment through my secure client portal. If you have questions before scheduling, you're always welcome to contact me. 

Once your appointment is scheduled, you'll receive secure electronic forms to complete before your first session. These include consent forms, a brief personal history, and other information that helps me understand your needs and prepare for our time together. 

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We'll talk about what brings you to counseling, discuss your goals, and begin developing a plan that supports your unique needs. 

Yes. I offer secure telehealth sessions for clients located in Florida, making it easier to access counseling from the comfort and privacy of your home or another convenient location.

Most individual counseling sessions last 50–60 minutes. During our initial consultation, we'll discuss your needs and recommend a schedule that best supports your goals.

That's completely okay. Many of my clients are new to counseling. Your first session is simply an opportunity for us to get to know one another, talk about what's bringing you in, and discuss your goals. There's no pressure to have everything figured out—we'll take it one step at a time.

Yes. Your privacy is very important. Counseling sessions are confidential, with a few exceptions required by law, such as concerns about safety or situations involving abuse or neglect. I'll review confidentiality with you during our first appointment and answer any questions you may have.

I currently offer private-pay services. If requested, I can provide a superbill that you may submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement.

The frequency of counseling is based on your individual needs and goals. Many clients begin with weekly sessions, while others may benefit from biweekly appointments. Together, we'll determine a schedule that best supports your progress.

The relationship between you and your counselor is one of the most important factors in successful therapy. During our initial consultation, we'll discuss your concerns, goals, and what you're looking for in counseling. If we decide we're a good fit, we'll work together to create a plan that supports your growth. If not, I'm happy to help connect you with other resources that may better meet your needs.

Seeking support is an investment in your wellbeing, and you don't have to take that step alone. Whether you're navigating a specific challenge or simply looking for a safe place to grow, I'm here to support you. I look forward to meeting you and walking alongside you as you begin your journey toward healing, hope, and lasting growth.
