Great to meet you!

Feeling stuck? You don't have to navigate it alone.

Hi, I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 5 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families overcome challenges and create meaningful change.

If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, relationship issues, stress, trauma, parenting challenges, or life transitions, therapy can provide the support and tools you need. I offer a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.

Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or simply stuck. Together, we’ll explore patterns that may be holding you back, build healthy coping skills, improve communication, and strengthen your confidence to create positive change. I believe everyone has the ability to heal and thrive with the right support.

Taking the first step can feel hard, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to help you move forward with clarity, resilience, and hope.

My approach to therapy

I provide individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, and child and adolescent counseling. I work with children and teens facing behavioral challenges, ADHD, anxiety, emotional regulation issues, school concerns, and family conflict, as well as adults navigating stress, burnout, grief, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

For couples, I help improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen emotional connection using evidence-based approaches like the Gottman Method.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and personalized. I use CBT, DBT, attachment-based therapy, and Gottman Method techniques to meet your unique needs.

I offer in-person and telehealth therapy throughout Houston and Harris County, Texas, with services available in English and Spanish.

What you can expect from me

In your first session, I will help identify positive goals and outcomes that you are hoping to gain through therapy. Your strengths and hopes will be discussed at length, in a positive, warm, and caring atmosphere. I can help you navigate life's stressors so you can live your best life!
