Therapy for Women and Youth Experiencing Anxiety, Perfectionism & Overthinking

Personalized therapy for the modern woman or youth navigating anxiety in Fort Myers, and throughout the state of Florida.

Even though we have so much to be thankful for, it’s hard to feel happy when we are consumed with worry. I am happy to serve clients of all ages in-person in Southwest Florida or via online therapy in the state of Florida so you can be your best self.

A therapeutic relationship is the most important part of therapy. My counseling style is highly engaged yet warm and friendly. I will validate your feelings and experiences while offering gentle challenges to help you shift your mindset. Therapy is tough work - but my clients and I often share laughs as we work together, too :) I aim to connect with each of my clients so we can successfully celebrate your strengths and enhance your life by transforming your thoughts.

If you live in the state of Florida and think we might be a good fit, you can schedule a free intro call by clicking the button in the Menu or at the bottom of this page. My clients will be heard, valued and learn tools to rise above life’s challenges. I believe we all deserve to live the good life. Talk to you soon!

Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, irritable and stuck?

Welcome to Rise Therapy SWFL, where we learn tools to rise above life’s challenges.

I offer individual and family therapy sessions for children & women in Fort Myers and virtually throughout the state of Florida.

Common Treatment Areas

  • You might feel a constant sense of worry or unease, often anticipating the worst-case scenarios and feeling trapped by your racing thoughts.

  • You may find yourself constantly striving to meet others' expectations, afraid of disappointing or upsetting them, often at the expense of your own needs and well-being.

  • You could be caught in a cycle of excessive thinking, replaying conversations, and decisions in your mind, struggling to move forward because you're always questioning "what if."

  • You might be struggling to say "no" or to assert your own needs, often feeling overwhelmed or resentful because you're taking on too much for others without protecting your own space.

  • You may feel like nothing you do is ever good enough, constantly pushing yourself to achieve unattainable standards and fearing failure or criticism, even for small imperfections.

  • You could be experiencing difficulties connecting with others, facing conflicts or misunderstandings, and feeling like you're not being seen, heard, or valued in your relationships.

  • You might feel unsettled or anxious about a significant change in your life or education, struggling to adapt to new environments or expectations, and feeling uncertain about what lies ahead.

  • You may often doubt your own abilities or worth, feeling like you're not capable or deserving, and this lack of confidence might be holding you back from pursuing opportunities or expressing yourself fully.

How We Can Work Together

I am an experienced counselor with a modern and authentic approach. My work with clients takes a more directive and collaborative approach so that I can see the positive shifts, growth, and changes you really want!

I specialize in treating symptoms of anxiety, perfectionism and emotional regulation using solution focused counseling techniques and cognitive behavior therapy. I work with adults and children in Fort Myers and throughout Florida.

Overcoming Overthinking Mini Course

This course is your guide to breaking free from constant overthinking. Learn practical tips and tricks to quiet your mind, feel more calm and confident, and regain control over your thoughts. You do not have to live in Florida to benefit from this course as it is not considered ‘therapy’.
