I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a MSW from the University of Texas at Arlington and a BA in Psychology from the University of North Texas.
I work with adolescents and adults navigating challenges with anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions. I have particular expertise in childhood trauma and understanding how early experiences can shape the way we see ourselves, relate to others, and navigate the world.
My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and insight-oriented, incorporating psychoeducation to help clients better understand the "why" behind their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I believe that developing this understanding, along with gaining practical tools to navigate challenges, is an important part of creating meaningful change.
Together, we can explore patterns that may no longer be serving you, make sense of your experiences, and use what we learn to develop healthier ways of coping and relating to yourself and others.
I believe therapy should feel like a genuine, collaborative experience where you feel comfortable being yourself and exploring what matters to you. Therapy can be meaningful and challenging without feeling overly formal. You can expect an honest, supportive conversation where we work together to help you better understand yourself and create meaningful change.
