Individual therapy for teens and adults-telehealth in Florida and Virginia
Specializing in anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges
There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.
John Green
You don't have to keep going through this alone.
Maybe life has felt heavy for a while. Maybe you're exhausted from holding everything together, going through the motions, or trying to figure out why you keep ending up in the same place no matter how hard you try. Maybe you can't quite put your finger on it, but you just know something needs to change. Whatever brought you here, I'm glad you came.
You might be in the right place if you ever thought...
- "I'm always the one holding everything and everyone together."
- "I don't even know why I feel this way. Nothing that bad has happened to me."
- "I'm so much harder on myself than I'd ever be on someone I love."
- "I keep ending up in the same patterns in my relationships and I don't know how to stop."
- "I want to ask for help but I don't want to be a burden."
- "I've felt this way for so long that I'm not even sure what okay feels like anymore."
If you relate to any of these, then you're in the right place. And you don't have to have it all figured out before you reach out. That's what I'm here for.
Hi, I'm Carmen!
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and I've spent years helping teens and adults make sense of the patterns, struggles, and stories that have been quietly shaping their lives.
My approach is warm, gentle, and completely judgment-free. I'm not a blank-face therapist. I show up as a real person, fully invested in your story, every single session. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or something you don't even have a name for yet, I'll meet you exactly where you are.
I proudly serve the LGBTQ+ community and welcome all backgrounds, identities, and experiences.
How I Can Help
Life can be tough, and it looks different for everyone. Whether you're a teen trying to make sense of a world that feels overwhelming, or an adult who's been holding things together for longer than you'd like to admit, you deserve a space to finally breathe and actually work through it.
I work with teens (16+) and adults on:
- Anxiety & Depression — when you get exhausted from spiraling or the heaviness won't lift and you're just going through the motions
- Trauma — when something from your past is still showing up in your present, whether you call it trauma or not
- Relationships & Communication — when your patterns in relationships, your boundaries, or the way you talk to yourself aren't working anymore
No matter what brings you in, the approach is the same: warm, judgment-free, and tailored to you.
