About Taz

Therapy is my calling; I just love people! My career in mental health started when I got my first post-undergrad job at Oliver-Pyatt Centers, an eating disorder treatment center in Miami. I was exposed to serious eating disorders and mental health issues - it was here that I realized I loved getting to know clients on a deep level and seeing them recover. 

I took a brief hiatus from working in treatment and traveled to Rishikesh, India for an intensive yoga teacher training. I went there to check off a bucket list item but I came back with a passion for yoga and meditation. I started teaching at a psychosocial rehab for addiction with Chrysalis Health and I saw how effective yoga and meditation were for addiction and mental health - I still incorporate meditation into my sessions with clients and prescribe it as a way for them to connect with their innermost selves. 

After earning my Master's in Social Work, I landed my first therapist job at Family Recovery Specialists, an addiction and mental health IOP where I eventually became a Clinical Director. I also became certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a trauma therapy that works for trauma, anxiety, depression, phobias, and more - I am one of the only ART practitioners in Miami.

I started Talk2Taz, LLC to fulfill my dream of having my own practice in order to do what I truly love: connect with clients and work with them towards becoming the best versions of themselves . To anyone reading this - if you let me in and are willing to do the work, we can make magic happen!
