Life can be challenging and I want to help individuals build new skills and gain insight in helping overcome those challenges.
I'm a warm, inquisitive, and compassionate therapist here to meet you where you are. I use my education and training as well as my experiences to inform my practice and create a comfortable space for us to explore your thoughts and emotions.
Hi! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with teens and young adults and families navigating anxiety, life transitions, and those “what am I doing with my life?” moments. I know reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating, so I aim to create a space that feels real, relaxed, and judgment-free. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just need someone to talk things through with, I’m here to support you. I also offer a bilingual and culturally aware space where you can show up fully as yourself.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and board-approved supervisor in Texas. I received my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2017 from The University of Texas at Tyler. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the effects of past experiences that continue to show up in the present.
In my work, I focus on creating a space that feels steady, supportive, and nonjudgmental. Many of the people I work with aren’t always sure where to start. They may just know that something feels off or overwhelming. Together, we begin to make sense of those experiences in a way that feels more manageable.
As a fully licensed professional counselor in Texas, I have had the opportunity to work with many populations. Victims of domestic and sexual violence, those struggling with substance abuse, and those managing ongoing anxiety and depression are those with whom I have spent the most time. I prefer to demystify the counseling process and allow clients to be who they are during sessions. I don't want to put you in a box; I want you to feel validated and connected to the world you're in. I can see individuals, adolescents (15+), couples, and families.
I believe with a little help, you can be your own change.
I am a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (TX # 14678) and Licensed Professional Counselor (TX # 91644) I have more than 25 years of experience working in the criminal justice, mental health, substance use and addiction fields. I have experience treating children, adolescents, and adults, dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and interpersonal conflict and co-occurring conditions including addictions.
Challenges shouldn’t just be endured—they should be the catalyst for your breakthrough. My goal is to help you transform life's toughest hurdles into a foundation for lasting resilience and self-discovery, giving you the tools to reclaim your strength and lead a more intentional life.
I am passionate about helping people feel seen, heard, and supported as they navigate life's challenges and discover their inner strengths. My approach is to create an authentic and individual relationship with my clients so they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and hopes without judgment.

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you
Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Amarillo
Finding the right LGBTQIA+-affirming provider in Amarillo starts with understanding what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, identity exploration, or the effects of minority stress, look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has direct experience working with LGBTQ+ clients. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach, training, and whether they feel like a good match before you reach out.
In a smaller metro area like Amarillo, the number of local affirming providers may feel limited. Virtual sessions can significantly expand your options, connecting you with licensed professionals across Texas who specialize in LGBTQIA+ mental health care. Many providers on Headway offer both in-person and virtual appointments, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule and comfort level.
Therapy in Amarillo can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront. Many patients pay as low as $0 per visit, making it easier to prioritize consistent, affirming care.
