I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over four years of clinical experience working with adolescents and adults. I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe exploring their thoughts, emotions, and life experiences.
My therapeutic approach is client-centered and grounded in evidence-based practices, particularly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Together, we work to identify patterns in thoughts and behaviors while developing practical tools to manage challenges and improve overall well-being.
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and stress-related concerns (including social anxiety and panic), depression, self-esteem and identity challenges, relationship difficulties and boundary setting, academic or career stress, and patterns such as overthinking and negative thought cycles.
My goal is to empower clients with the insight and skills needed to navigate challenges and create meaningful, lasting change.
Throughout the therapy process, I focus on building resilience, increasing self-awareness, and supporting personal growth. I believe that everyone has the capacity for change and healing. I am committed to helping clients develop practical strategies and a deeper understanding of themselves so they can move forward with confidence and resilience.
“The nurse practitioner was friendly and pleasant. However the exam consisted of a EKG, and checking my mother’s heart and lungs. There were no other physical exams during her yearly physical. No examination of the ears, throat, abdomen, skin. It would seem that should be in a patient’s physical. It is always in mine. However, I am not a current patient with this practice.”

“For some reason I thought I had an appointment with Neurologist Dr. Patel. His qualifications were impressive on the website. When I arrived I was told that Dr. Patel was in New York not in Boca Raton. I was told that I would see Sharit Sigalit. I asked if she was a neurologist and was told yes. I explained to Dr. Sigalit that my right hand occasionally shakes involuntarily. I was given nerve tests and a cap on my head test. I was then told I had to get a Brain DaTscan never being told what the current tests I took revealed or what the Brain DaTscan was for. When I came home I looked up Dr. Shavit was not a neurologist but a nurse. I check with Rayus who was recommended to do the Brain DaTscan and was told it involved at least 40 minutes flat on my back. I explained that if I am in that position it is extremely painful for me and I could not stay still as required so I do not want to take it unless I can be in a sitting position. The representative said that was the only way I could do it. Since I have done research and learned the result would not be certain. So I will not take the test.
I have an appointment with the nurse for April 13th at 1:30 pm which now I wish to cancel. I also request that the results of the tests done be sent to me..
