As a therapist, I am honored to be a vessel guiding women through life's challenges, helping them view their pain as a pathway towards healing, personal growth, stronger relationships, and spiritual strengthening.
A note from Sabrina...
When I was in college, I really struggled to choose a major. The one thing I did know, was that I didn’t want to study psychology. I hated it with a passion and believed it was a depressing and hopeless career. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Journalism and Mass Communications with a concentration in Public Relations and planned to return to school for my MBA. But God…opened my eyes to see Him, gave me a new perspective of life, renewed my mind, and gave my heart a new hope. I learned my calling and pursued a master’s degree in Counseling Psychology. Today, two decades later, I couldn’t love this work more. The women I see tell me I’m such a blessing and encouragement to them, but witnessing their healing and growth-they are the greater blessing and encouragement to me.”
-Sabrina
As an EMDRIA Certified Therapist and trauma specialist with over 16 years of experience, Sabrina has helped more than 1,000 individuals across diverse backgrounds, including extensive work within the foster care system, schools, and private practice settings. A native of South Florida, in her experience, she has witnessed that no matter how many years have passed, time does not heal all wounds- it conceals them. Unresolved hurts that remain in the heart build up over time and deeply affect what you believe about yourself and others. In her personal journey, she did not fully recognize her own past wounds and trauma until she was 28 years old already in practice. That realization strengthened her passion for helping women uncover, process, and heal from the experiences that continue to affect their daily lives.
She utilizes evidence-based approaches, primarily EMDR and CBT, to help women struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional instability, triggers, grief, shame, guilt, and relationship issues. She offers Christian counseling upon request. Her therapeutic process requires examining your heart, transparency, openness, honesty, deep work, and will. Those who commit to the process, see progress. Painful memories are reprocessed leading to long-term change, one memory at a time.

About Sabrina
Hope. Healing. Restoration.
Mission
To provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy that empowers women to heal from trauma, restore hope, and build healthier relationships. I am committed to creating a safe, supportive space where women can experience lasting emotional healing and personal growth.
Vision
My vision is to see women transformed through healing, one heart at a time. Through evidence-based care, I strive to help women overcome the effects of trauma, strengthen their relationships, and create a lasting legacy of hope, healing, and resilience for future generations.
Women
The most important aspect of life is our relationships- the people we do life with. You cannot have healthy relationships if you are not a healthy person. How do you know if you are a healthy or unhealthy person? What you believe about yourself and others will determine your behavior and what kinds of relationships you have. Therapy can help you heal and grow.
Areas of Expertise
EMDR
Do you feel not good enough? Overwhelmed? Crazy? Emotionally unsafe? Weak? Damaged? Trauma is any negative memory that deeply impacted you to this day. No matter how long ago the experience was, it can change your belief system. EMDR works to uproot negative cognitions and replace them with positive ones.
Christian Counseling
Have you ever been hurt by the church body? Do you feel burned out trying to do "good"? Have you felt like giving up on your faith? Are you doubting God's goodness in your life? Has your desire for God diminished? Biblically-based counseling can help you build a healthy relationship with Christ. Offered upon request.
