Welcome. Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when you're carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, or questions about who you are and how you want to move through the world. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults who are navigating challenges related to anxiety, depression, PTSD, identity concerns, family issues, grief and loss, stress, anger, sleep difficulties, and life transitions. I also provide affirming care for LGBTQIA+ individuals and those exploring gender identity and transgender experiences. Many people come to therapy feeling exhausted, misunderstood, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. My goal is to create a space where you can feel accepted, understood, and supported as we work together toward greater self-awareness, healing, and personal growth. Therapy is an opportunity to better understand yourself, process difficult experiences, and build a life that feels more authentic and meaningful.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience working as counselor in group settings as well as various ages from kids to adults.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have a passion for helping people work through life's challenges, assisting them in reaching their full potential, and figuring out what it is that they most want from life. I believe that being heard, understood, and accepted exactly as you are is where healing begins.
Credentials and Experience
I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma and Colorado, a board-certified counselor (NCC), and hold a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision - which means I don't just practice therapy, I train and supervise other therapists. That clinical depth shapes everything about how I work with clients.
My specialization is neurocounseling: integrating what we know about the brain and nervous system into practical, grounded therapy. I also hold specialized training in telehealth - so working with you virtually isn't a workaround, it's where I do my best work.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, identity, and the particular kind of exhaustion that comes from holding everything together for too long.
If you’ve been carrying too much for too long, therapy can be a place to finally exhale. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas and Oklahoma, and I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship issues, life transitions, trauma, and recovery from narcissistic abuse. Many of my clients feel emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, disconnected from themselves, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to offer a compassionate, supportive space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to heal, grow, and make meaningful changes.
I believe therapy works best when we’re actively working together toward meaningful change. Growth can feel uncomfortable at times, but with practice, new ways of thinking and relating become more natural and empowering. My approach is collaborative, genuine, and grounded in respect. My primary modalities are Cognitive Behavioral and Attachment Based, but I tailor therapy to each person’s needs, drawing from a variety of methods to help you build insight, confidence, and resilience. I value a strong therapeutic relationship where you feel supported, understood, and encouraged.
I enjoy working with individuals of various lifestyles and feel my ability to remain accepting, respectful, and genuine are my personal strengths. I am also honored as an advisor to the 5th Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders which is the foremost diagnostic tool utilized by all mental health professionals around the world.
If you’re ready to make meaningful changes in your life, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity and purpose. To read more about my client experiences, you can visit my profile on Healthgrades.
