🌟 Part 7: Building Safe Spaces, One City at a Time🌟
This week, I want to share my love for Fort Lauderdale—a city that has been my home for over 20 years and the foundation of my professional journey. It’s a place where I’ve grown both personally and professionally, and where my passion for serving the community has flourished.
When the pandemic hit, I knew I had to pivot quickly to keep my business prepared to serve the community during such a challenging time. It wasn’t just about adapting to the crisis—it was about staying connected, providing support, and ensuring that therapy remained accessible when people needed it most. That strategy was no small feat, but it was a necessary step to continue the mission I hold so close to my heart.
Opening my second practice in Atlanta marked an incredible milestone, but it didn’t come without its own unique set of challenges. Expanding into a new city meant stepping out of my comfort zone and reimagining how I could replicate the safe, supportive environment I had built in Fort Lauderdale.
Creating a space where therapists feel supported and empowered has always been one of my dreams. I know what it’s like to be a therapist in search of a safe place to practice, and I wanted to be part of the solution. Building these spaces is my way of giving back—to my clients, my community, and to the professionals who are working tirelessly to help others heal.
Fort Lauderdale will always have a special place in my heart, but the journey of growth and service continues. Here’s to creating safe places and spreading healing, one city at a time. 💚✨
