LGBT therapists in Forney, TX

Therapy is self-care. I want my client's therapeutic experience to be the best one possible as I know they are using the small amount of time they have to work on themselves. I am the therapist I would want for myself. I am collaborative, knowledgeable, I help simplify the complicated, put words to experiences, feelings, and thoughts, and guide clients in what to do with their findings. I am the therapist you do "the work" with.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience in hospital-based care, trauma work, and cross-cultural mental health, my practice is guided by the belief that healing starts with safety, clarity, and being truly understood. I offer a steady, compassionate presence and a culturally attuned perspective, respecting both the science of the mind and your personal narrative. I am dedicated to providing care that is thoughtful, grounded, and respectful of your entire experience.

Being a Marriage and Family Therapist, I fundamentally believe the family is a system and if something is going on with one person in the family, it will likely affect other members of the family. As such we are products of our environment. In working together, I will acknowledge that you are the expert of you and provide you with a safe space to explore concerns and build on strengths learning new healthy coping skills.

What truly sets me apart is my calm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental approach. I believe in meeting every individual exactly where they are, creating a safe and affirming space for open, honest communication. Together, we’ll build a collaborative relationship where goals, preferences, and values guide every step of your care. I am committed to providing stigma-free care; including those navigating challenges related to neurodivergence, substance use, trauma, identity or difficult past experiences. Everyone deserves to be seen, heard, and respected without fear of shame or judgment.

Do find yourself having BIG responses to everyday triggers, stressors, and annoyances? Do you ever feel like your past trauma is creeping it’s way into your present relationships? You might be feeling overwhelmed by the weight of your emotions, wondering when there will be a moment to just catch your breath. Let's work together, as I engage you in deep conversation that questions old belief systems that just don't work anymore.
