Professional Credentials & Experience

  • I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Houston, University Park.
  • With years of experience supporting clients from diverse backgrounds, I offer a compassionate, affirming space where you never have to shrink or over-explain to feel understood.

Why We’ll Work Well Together

  • Starting therapy is an act of courage, and I’m genuinely proud of you for taking that first step. As a woman of color, I deeply understand the importance of having a therapist who sees and holds space for your full identity and truth.
  • Whether you’re feeling stuck in relationships, emotions, or within yourself, we’ll gently explore what’s holding you back, strengthen your boundaries, and help you move from surviving to truly living.
  • Your healing journey won’t be one-size-fits-all because you’re not. Together, we’ll create a path that honors your story, your pace, and your goals.
  • My style is relational, collaborative, and grounded in deep respect for your lived experience. You already hold so much wisdom; I’m here to help you reconnect with it.

If this resonates, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy works best when it’s relational, collaborative, and deeply affirming. From the very start, I create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can show up fully as yourself; no shrinking, no explaining needed.

Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor therapy to your unique story and needs. Together, we’ll gently unravel what’s holding you back, build healthier boundaries, and honor your pace, experiences, and goals every step of the way.

My goal is to walk alongside you with empathy and respect, helping you reconnect with your inner strength and move toward lasting growth.

What you can expect from me

What You Can Expect

  • From our very first session, you can expect to feel truly seen, heard, and understood. Together, we’ll begin the process of reconnecting you with your own inner wisdom and gaining clarity about what’s keeping you stuck.
  • Our work will focus on helping you move from surviving to truly living. You’ll leave with deeper self-awareness, stronger boundaries, and a renewed sense of empowerment rooted in your authentic self.
  • Throughout, I’ll hold space for your story with empathy, respect, and collaboration.
