You are Enough.
My Experience and Training
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, with M. Ed. and Ed. S degrees in Counseling from the University of Florida (2013). Prior to becoming licensed as an LMHC, I worked for 6 years as a School Counselor in a local public Title I elementary school and a private middle school, and have extensive experience working with children, teens, and families as both a counselor and teacher. I was lucky to receive training in EMDR early on in my internship period, and have utilized it significantly over the past several years, receiving consultation and advanced training.
