Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in CA and Licensed Professional Counselor in TX, working with clients via telehealth. I specialize in anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma to name a few. I tend to be solution focused and will utilize a combination of approaches to work with you while trying to resolve various situations. Life experiences and my desire to help others is a primary factor behind becoming a therapist.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client I work with. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I will meet you where you are without judgment and bias, hoping to provide a comfortable and safe space, as we work together towards potential solutions.

I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for pre-teens, teens, and adults, who may be dealing with life challenges and social pressures. This often takes the form of anxiety, depression, and stress. I work to help my clients navigate these challenges and build necessary skills to help them feel better about themselves, and develop a more positive outlook on life.

What you can expect from our first session

My communication style is calm, non-judgmental, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything, and I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment.

Our first session together is for us to spend the majority of the time talking about how you've been feeling recently, and me asking questions to gain a better understanding of why you may be feeling that way. The first session is about starting to build rapport and an initial connection, helping me get a sense of where we should go from there. Each individual is different, and I like to listen first before assuming I know what will work best for you moving forward.
