I'm so glad you found your way here — reaching out for therapy takes real courage, and I don't take that lightly. Maybe anxiety has you lying awake replaying conversations, or a past trauma keeps surfacing when you least expect it. Maybe the highs and lows of bipolar disorder feel impossible to predict, or you're carrying PTSD, panic, or anger you've never had space to unpack. Wherever you are, you don't have to sort it out alone.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas, working with teens and adults navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, panic, anger, and the daily stressors that quietly pile up. I have a special heart for LGBTQIA+ and transgender clients, and for anyone working through identity, relationship, family, or women's issues. My training spans inpatient hospital care, a group home for children in foster care, and outpatient practice — so I've sat with people in their hardest moments and helped them find steadier ground. My goal is simple: to help you feel understood, supported, and capable of moving forward.

If your child is having big feelings, behavior changes, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, depression, or challenges in relationships, you may be feeling overwhelmed and unsure what to do next. I work with young children, adolescents, and caregivers to help children feel more connected, understood, and supported. My specialty is early childhood mental health, with a focus on children from birth to age 12. I use play therapy, sandtray therapy, EMDR, and parent support to help children process difficult experiences, build emotional regulation, and strengthen relationships at home.

I have spent more than 25 years supporting young children and caregivers in settings focused on development, behavior, attachment, and trauma. Over the past several years, I have also served as a Mental Health Consultant, providing assessment-informed interventions and therapeutic support grounded in Child-Centered Play Therapy. My work is warm, relationship-focused, and developmentally appropriate. My goal is to help children and families feel safe, supported, and able to move toward healing.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes therapy should feel like a safe place to breathe, reflect, and grow. I work with kids, teens, and adults, especially those dealing with trauma, anxiety, or overwhelming life stress. I’ve spent years supporting youth in foster care, and that experience has shaped my belief that healing happens through connection, consistency, and compassion.

In our work together, you can expect a mix of practical tools, honest conversation, and a focus on helping you understand yourself more clearly. I use CBT and trauma‐informed approaches, but I tailor every session to what you need most. My goal is to help you feel supported, capable, and more in control of your story.
