More about Barbara
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Florida, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating life's complex emotional landscapes. With over a decade of clinical experience, I bring a compassionate and culturally responsive approach to counseling. My practice centers on helping clients work through stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and self-esteem concerns.
I understand that healing is a deeply personal journey, and I'm committed to creating a supportive, affirming space where you can explore your experiences and develop meaningful strategies for growth. My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and a genuine belief in each person's capacity for resilience and positive change.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I provide Christian-based counseling for individuals seeking emotional, relational, and spiritual growth. In my work, I’ve found that theology and therapy can serve as powerful, complementary tools on the path toward healing and wholeness, when a client desires this integrated approach.
I offer a safe, compassionate space where faith-informed insight and evidence-based therapeutic practices come together to support meaningful change, clarity, and restored well-being.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
