Hello! I have experience working with adolescents and adults using a variety of therapy techniques in individual and group therapy sessions. I work with a variety of treatment modules including CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, existential therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness. I have worked extensively in crisis experience and with clients in crisis partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive out-patient (IOP), and in school settings.

Clients describe me as someone who’s compassionate, but who will “tell it like it is.” I believe that most problems in our relationships and well-being come from unmet needs in childhood. I help my clients learn to heal through mindfulness, reparenting, and finding a sense of safety through Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) or somatic therapy. At the same time, we need to identify and challenge negative beliefs that we have about ourselves and the world. This is a process called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Through therapy, we can develop self-awareness, healthy boundaries, and assertive communication. These are skills we can all learn to help us feel better and work towards the life and healthy relationships we want.

I am a licensed therapist with experience working with adults, kids 5 years old and older, preteens, and teens. I graduated from the University of North Texas and was trained in Play Therapy as well as individual counseling for adults.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I can assist in addressing concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, behavior issues, emotional regulation, anger management, relationship and peer issues, and life stressors.

I was born and raised in Southern California, but moved to Texas in 2007. I earned a Bachelors of Art degree in Psychology from California State University, San Bernardino. I earned her Masters in Social Work from Loma Linda University in Southern California.
