Relocating to Tampa From Gainesville: Therapist in Tampa, FL

After calling Gainesville, FL “home” for several years, my practice will be relocating to Tampa, Florida in August 2025.

While I’m looking forward to this next chapter, I feel a mix of grief, anxiety, and excitement about moving. I originally moved to Gainesville for my Bachelors Degree at the University of Florida, and then I stayed to earn my Masters and Specialist degrees. Since then, I have had the privilege of being a therapist in Gainesville for over 5 years! I completed my internship at the UF Psychiatric Hospital (formerly known as Vista) and UF Springhill Psychology before moving on to a group private practice and then starting my own practice. I look forward to continuing my journey as a therapist in Tampa, Florida, but Gainesville will always be in my heart.

Current Clients

The hardest part of this move has been knowing how it will impact my current clients. It has been such an honor to walk alongside each and every one of you. Having your therapist move can be difficult to process, and I know it has brought up many feelings of sadness, disappointment, grief, and anxiety. I also feel grief knowing that our time in-person has come to an end.

For clients that have decided to transition to a new in-person therapist, thank you for allowing me to be your therapist, and I hope to help make this transition as smooth as possible. For my clients who have decided to switch to video sessions after the move, thank you for continuing to trust me to support you, and we will navigate the transition to video sessions together.

What will stay the same

Although my practice is moving locations, many aspects of my practice will remain the same:

• Commitment to providing compassionate, trauma-informed, affirming care for all of my clients

• Support teenagers, college students, young adults, and adults for therapy in Tampa, FL

• Specialize in therapy for anxiety, trauma, depression, self esteem, OCD, and other life stressors

• Offer video sessions and in-person sessions as a therapist in Tampa, FL

What’s New

With this move, there will be a few changes:

• A new welcoming office space located at the Tampa Palms Professional Center next to a beautiful, tranquil lake

• In-person therapy for clients located in or around Tampa, FL
