Great to meet you!

After a transformative summer with women from Russian orphanages, my passion for counseling, particularly for traumatized females, was ignited. This led me to pursue a psychology undergraduate degree, during which I interned at children’s advocacy centers aiding families in abuse investigations. Subsequently, I obtained my Masters from UTSA and have gained experience in non-profits, private practice, and psychiatric hospitals.

My approach to therapy

We can develop coping strategies and address any past traumas. This may seem daunting, but as someone who has also faced significant trauma, I am well-equipped to support you in your journey towards healing and a more fulfilling life. Instead of merely surviving, you can learn to thrive and look forward to each day.

What you can expect from me

Building a strong foundation of trust is paramount in the counseling journey, as our relationship significantly influences the healing process. Once trust is established, we can embark on the path to healing together. I specialize in evidence-based modalities such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, and narrative therapy, tailored to help individuals overcome trauma, manage anxiety, and alleviate depression. Reach out to me to discover how we can work together towards your well-being.
