Hello, my name is Geralda, and I’m currently in my second year of the Master of Social Work (MSW) program at the University of West Florida. I received my bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from Bethune-Cookman University in 2016, which laid the foundation for my passion for advocacy, equity, and supporting underserved communities.

As a therapist-in-training, I am deeply committed to creating a supportive, affirming, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel safe to share, reflect, and grow. My goal is to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s challenges and help you uncover your inner strengths, build resilience, and move toward personal healing and transformation.

In our sessions, we’ll co-create a plan that reflects your unique needs, values, and goals. I incorporate CBT, mindfulness-based practices, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care. I also hold a foundational understanding of Christianity and welcome clients of all spiritual, cultural, and personal backgrounds.

Above all, I’m here to meet you where you are. Your voice matters, your story is valuable, and your journey deserves to be met with care and respect.
