Great to meet you!

I was a born talker! I am known by those around me as the secret keeper. I received both a Bachelor’s of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Development and Family Studies and a Master’s of Education in Counseling with a focus on Community, from the University of North Texas in Denton, Texas.

My approach to therapy

After college, each job I have obtained has been with those affected by trauma, including children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. I have worked with child victims in foster care, those affected by domestic violence, those experiencing grief/loss, those currently experiencing homelessness and those who have been diagnosed with one, or more, mental health disorders.

I use an Adlerian approach most, but also person-centered. My clinical approach heavily relies on the need(s) of each client.

What you can expect from me

My intent is to create a healing space free of judgment. Your charge is to bring your authentic self. When these things combine, growth happens.
