I am a compassionate, client-centered therapist with extensive experience working across the behavioral health spectrum. My professional background includes work in youth detention centers, prisons, behavioral health hospitals, group homes, and residential treatment centers (RTCs). These environments shaped my deep respect for resilience and taught me how important safety, trust, and consistency are in the healing process.
It is my belief that as people become more aware and accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding a sense of peace and contentment in their lives. Some of my clients need only a few sessions to achieve these goals, others may require months or even years to put their puzzle pieces together. As a client, you are in complete control, and you may end your relationship with me at any point. I am actively licensed in the State of Texas as a LMFT; LPC; and LCDC.
What is your approach to therapy?For therapy to be most successful, it is important for you to take an active role. This means working on the things you and I talk about, both during and between sessions. Generally, the more you are willing to invest the greater the return. It is my intention to empower you in your growth process to the degree that you can face life’s challenges in the future without me. I do not believe in creating dependency or prolonging therapy if the therapeutic intervention does not seem to be helping.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?As a clinician, I have experience providing person-centered recovery plans; rehabilitation skills training; case management; and crisis intervention services, to individuals living with severe and persistent mental health concerns. I am qualified to offer a wide array of counseling services in the areas of Individual Family; Couples; and Chemical Dependency. Counseling services to address a wide range of mental health and relationship issues that impact a person’s emotional health and wellbeing.
Family Psychiatric nurse practitioner for two years and see all types of patients.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 16 years of experience in education and mental health support. I hold a Master of Education in Counseling and Guidance from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.
My professional background includes extensive experience as a school counselor, which has strengthened my ability to support individuals through life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. Over time, my clinical work has expanded to include adolescents (15+), adults, and older adults.
I enjoy working with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, and relationship concerns. I also have a strong passion for working with older adults as they reflect on life experiences, cope with changes in health or independence, and find meaning and purpose in later stages of life.
In addition, I work with couples and married partners who are seeking to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection. I support couples in navigating conflict in healthier ways and developing a deeper understanding of one another.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives
After being immersed in straight-cis Christian culture for years, I finally came to terms with my own queerness and now enjoy helping my clients enjoy the peace of authentic living. I work with both straight and queer clients, couples or individuals. Regardless of how you identify, I want to help you get un-stuck so you can thrive in all areas of your life.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been providing individual therapy for adults for over 10 years.
Whatever issues you're dealing with, you'll be treated with dignity and respect, and I'll work with you to develop a plan to move towards living the kind of life that you want.
For over 10 years, I have worked alongside individuals navigating some of life's most difficult challenges, including trauma, addiction, incarceration, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, and major life transitions. These experiences have taught me that healing happens when people feel safe, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.
I believe that our past experiences often shape how we see ourselves and the world around us. Together, we can explore the beliefs and patterns that may be keeping you stuck, process difficult experiences, and build a stronger foundation for the future. My style is warm, collaborative, and direct, providing both support and gentle challenge as you work toward your goals.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply ready for a new chapter, I am committed to meeting you where you are and helping you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and self-compassion.
