Great to meet you!

Welcome! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 4 years of experience. I hold an MS in Counseling (ULM, 2020) and a BS (LSU, 2013). My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your concerns, discover your inner strengths, and navigate life's challenges. With empathy and professionalism, I am dedicated to helping you achieve emotional well-being, personal growth, and a greater sense of fulfillment.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I specialize in providing therapy with an integrative approach rooted in behaviorism. I firmly believe that each individual possesses the inherent capacity to overcome their current challenges and regain control of their lives. As a counselor, my primary goal is to create a safe and secure space where clients can freely express themselves without fear of judgment. I strive to foster greater self-awareness, enabling clients to cultivate more self-esteem, confidence, and problem-solving skills.

What you can expect from our first session

Our initial session together is an opportunity to collaboratively set goals and establish a roadmap for your personal growth. In my counseling style, I maintain a laid-back approach, characterized by support, care, compassion, and even a touch of humor. I firmly believe in identifying and leveraging your strengths to overcome obstacles. My role is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you can openly and honestly share your experiences.
