Do memories of the past still affect how you feel, think, or respond to the world around you? Maybe you're constantly on edge, struggling to feel safe, avoiding certain situations, or experiencing emotions that seem difficult to control. Even when you want to move forward, trauma can make it feel as though part of you is still living in the past. You deserve to feel safe, supported, and in control of your life again. Hi, I'm Sydney, a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern serving clients in Tamarac and throughout Broward County. I specialize in trauma-informed care, supporting individuals navigating PTSD, anxiety, depression, and the lasting emotional effects of difficult experiences. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based therapies, including CBT, solution-focused therapy, and DBT. Together, we can work toward understanding your responses, developing healthier coping strategies, and building skills to manage overwhelming emotions and stress. Healing doesn't mean forgetting what happened or pretending it didn't hurt. It means learning how to move forward without your past defining your present. You don't have to navigate this journey alone. Wherever you are in your healing process, we can start there—at your pace, with your needs and well-being at the center.
