I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), who is trained in Play Therapy and Autplay Therapy, which is a specialized therapeutic approach for children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental differences, including autism, ADHD, sensory differences, social anxiety, learning differences, and other developmental or physical disabilities. It is neurodiversity-affirming, meaning it values the unique strengths of each child while addressing areas of challenge in a supportive and inclusive manner. AutPlay Therapy is designed so that parents are not just observers but active, trained “co‐therapists” who work alongside the child and the therapist to meet therapy goals at home twccllc.net. This collaborative approach ensures that the child’s progress is sustained beyond the therapy session, creating a “Co‐Regulation Loop” where parents and children regulate emotions and behaviors together.

With adults or couples, I take a holistic approach to counseling that looks at the mind, body, and spirit. I integrate spiritual practices into my counseling sessions by creating a safe and open space for clients to explore their beliefs and values. My aim is to assist you in overcoming life’s challenges and achieving your fullest potential by exploring deeper meaning and purpose in your life. I use a mix of different methods to tailor my approach to each person, creating a supportive and empathetic environment for growth and healing. My diverse experience helps me connect with people from all walks of life.

Outside of work, I enjoy horseback riding, spending time with my pups, serving at my church’s Youth Ministry, and staying active with CrossFit. These activities keep me balanced and fulfilled, and I bring that energy into my counseling practice.

If you've spent your life providing, surviving, and holding things together for everyone else, therapy can feel like one more thing to manage. I work with men and working people who are tired of feeling anxious, isolated, or stuck, and who want to feel like themselves again. As a bilingual therapist raised in San Antonio, I understand the pressures of low wages, generational trauma, and the expectation to keep pushing no matter what. Whether you're navigating relationships, identity, or stress that never fully turns off, you don't have to figure it out alone.

If you've been searching for a therapist who truly gets where you're coming from, whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, family tension, ADHD, or struggling with substances, I want you to feel at home here from the first conversation. I work with individuals, couples, and families across all stages of life, including children, teens, and older adults. I offer sessions in both English and Spanish, and I warmly welcome clients of faith who want their beliefs to be a real part of the healing process.

This work found me early. I grew up watching my parents serve their community with unconditional love, and as a teenager I realized that was the path for me too. Over 10 years into this calling, that hasn't changed.

Hi, I'm glad you're here. If you're navigating a chronic illness, caring for a loved one, coping with grief, or adjusting to a major life change, you may be carrying more than most people realize.

As a licensed clinical social worker with a background in medical social work, I've spent years supporting individuals and families through some of life's most challenging seasons. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when your world changes unexpectedly or when you're constantly putting others' needs before your own.

My goal is to provide a compassionate space where you can feel supported, understood, and less alone as we work through whatever you're facing together.
