Maybe you’re the one everyone leans on, and you’re running on empty. Maybe anxiety keeps you up at night, a relationship feels stuck, or you’re navigating motherhood, grief, or a major life change and don’t recognize yourself anymore. You don’t have to figure it out alone. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 9 years of experience and a Master’s in Counseling from Dallas Baptist University. I work with adults and couples facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions, with a special heart for women’s issues, maternal and postpartum mental health, family stress, grief, and trauma. Clients often tell me they feel at ease quickly. I bring warmth, openness, and a healthy dose of humor to our work, because healing doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time.

Together, we’ll look past surface behaviors to the root of what’s really going on, then build practical tools you can use right away. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you untangle unhelpful thought patterns, Problem-Solving Therapy for concrete next steps, and Narrative Therapy to help you rewrite the story you tell yourself about who you are. For couples, I use a solution-focused approach that builds on what’s already working. My style is collaborative and empowering: you’re the expert on your life, and I’m here to help you see it more clearly. For clients who want it, I’m glad to integrate Christian faith into our work. For those who don’t, faith stays out of the room entirely. Either way, you’re welcome here.

Our first session is about getting to know you, not putting you on the spot. We’ll talk about what brought you in, what you’d like to be different, and what support has or hasn’t helped in the past. You can share as much or as little as you’re ready to, and we’ll move at your pace. By the end, you’ll have a sense of whether we’re a good fit and a starting plan for our work together. Reaching out is the hardest part, and I’d be honored to take the next step with you.
