Hello!

My name is Waynette, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC). I hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology from Saint Leo University and obtained a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University. I am a Gulf War-era Veteran who understands the traumatic experiences most women veterans experience during active duty.

My focus is empowering women with various issues, including generalized anxiety and depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions (divorce, empty nest, and perimenopause).

I have received training with Postpartum Support International to work with individuals and couples experiencing miscarriages, traumatic births, and post-abortion.

Therapy should provide a safe, open-minded, and relaxed atmosphere to build collaborative therapeutic relationships between the therapist and client to explore the uncomfortable and sometimes ugly parts of healing.

Working with adult women is my passion, and as a proud Gen X’er, I understand the complexities of midlife and remember the intricacies of finding myself in my 20s and 30s.

As your therapist, I am here to guide you using tools and interventions that best suit your needs and personality with compassion, encouragement, and sometimes straight talk.
