Biography

A daughter, Veteran, mother, and wife who achieved a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from University of Houston-Downtown in 2005. I went on to receive a Master's of Education from Texas Southern University with a focus in Counseling in 2007. I am Board Certified by the Texas State Board of Examiners of Professional Counselors. At POWCS, I make it my mission to provide what I really desired in a therapist but never received as a soldier, empathy, compassion and non-judgment.

My approach to therapy

My approach centers on creating a safe, welcoming space where you feel truly heard. Together, we will uncover your inner strengths and build a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique goals, ensuring you play an active, leading role in your own healing and growth.

What you can expect from me

From your very first session, you can expect a compassionate, human-centered environment where your voice and experience matter. We treat every client with deep respect and individualized care, standing by you as you work toward meaningful, lasting change.
