Anxiety and Trauma

Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas with a background in both education and mental health. I work with everyday people—especially young adults from marginalized communities—who are facing big challenges like trauma, anxiety, and relationship stress. My goal is to make therapy practical and approachable by using tools that work in real life. I specialize in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and I’m all about helping you build coping skills that actually help you manage life better—day by day. I take a holistic wellness approach that supports your mind, body, and spirit, so you can feel more in control, more grounded, and more like yourself again.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach is grounded in openness, honesty, trust, and a good dose of humor. I believe healing happens best when you feel seen, safe, and supported, so I tailor each session to meet your individual needs. My style is laid-back and approachable—because when you feel comfortable, you're more likely to engage in the process and get real results. Whether we're working through trauma, stress, or life transitions, my goal is to walk alongside you with compassion and flexibility as you navigate your healing journey.

What you can expect from our first session

My ultimate goal in counseling is to support you in working through the experiences that have negatively impacted your life, while helping you gain a deeper awareness of yourself. I’m here to walk with you—not to fix you—because you already have what it takes to create change. I look forward to working with you!
