Great to meet you!

When facing challenges, whether new or ongoing, it's often hard to figure-out how to move through the difficulty. I work with adults of all ages to help navigate concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions. My career has focused on providing compassionate support for individuals with diverse issues in a variety of settings. As a client-focused therapist, I will work with you to collaboratively establish goals and guide our work together.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Virtual therapy provides private, easy access for clients located anywhere in Texas. I provide a safe space for exploration of issues, as well as empathetic and straightforward feedback. You can expect to receive practical tools to help you navigate your individual needs

What you can expect from our first session

I offer a free no obligation phone consultation to introduce myself and explore whether we are a good fit.

During therapy, we’ll take time to build our relationship, establish trust, and consider what issues have prompted you to seek support, then move toward tangible ways to help you reach your therapeutic goals.
