Great to meet you!

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming — and I want you to know you've come to the right place. With over 20 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I bring a wealth of knowledge, compassion, and genuine care to every client I work with.

I've had the privilege of supporting children, teens, adults, couples, and families through some of life's most difficult moments. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, major life transitions, or a moment of crisis, I meet you exactly where you are — without judgment.

My background spans community mental health, private practice, and managed care, which means I understand that people come from all walks of life with different needs, resources, and stories. That breadth of experience allows me to tailor my approach to what works best for you.

I'm also a Licensed Professional Counselor Clinical Supervisor in Texas and hold licensure in both Texas (since 2002) and Arkansas — so you can feel confident you're working with a seasoned, credentialed professional.

If you or someone you love is in a difficult season or even a moment of crisis, please don't wait to reach out. You deserve support, and I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

My approach to therapy

You are not a diagnosis, a checklist, or a set of symptoms — you are a whole person with your own story, strengths, and experiences. That's exactly how I approach our work together.

In our sessions, we'll start by honoring what you already bring to the table. You've gotten through hard things before, and together we'll build on those strengths to develop new, healthier tools for whatever you're facing today.

Therapy here is simple: it's about you. Your goals, your pace, your needs. We'll start there — and go wherever you need to go.

If you're ready to take that first step, I'd love to connect.

What you can expect from me

Working with me, you can expect to feel truly heard — maybe for the first time in a long time.

Therapy with me is a space free of judgment, where you're encouraged to explore your thoughts and feelings with honesty and curiosity. I believes that self-understanding is one of the most powerful tools you can develop, and she'll walk alongside you as you build it.

During difficult seasons, it's easy to be your own harshest critic. I will help you extend to yourself the same empathy you'd offer a close friend — and learn to see yourself with greater clarity, compassion, and grace.

You won't leave sessions with a one-size-fits-all plan. You'll leave with insight — and the confidence that you're not facing this alone.
