“Provide specialized PTSD evaluations for individuals seeking their Medical Marijuana card in Florida.”

About Me

I conduct specialized PTSD evaluations for individuals in Florida. As a Clinical Psychologist, my focus is on those seeking a Medical Marijuana card. I provide thorough and clear assessments, ensuring you receive the precise documentation needed. I understand the importance of this step for your well-being. My approach offers a direct and professional path, supporting your journey with expert and timely evaluations.

Approach

When we work together via secure online sessions in English, I keep appointments structured and focused on clear, evidence-based steps to assess symptoms and their impact. Sessions combine clinical interviews, validated measures, and time to reflect so we can translate findings into concise documentation while also addressing anxiety, sleep, mood, and trauma-related patterns.
