Grief counselors and therapists in Friendswood, TX

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than ten years of experience, I am passionate about walking alongside clients as they work toward their therapeutic goals. My practice is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and a deep respect for each person’s unique story. I completed my Master of Social Work at the University of Texas at Arlington and earned my Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Miami University in Ohio, and these foundations continue to shape my commitment to evidence‐informed, client‐centered care. Whether supporting individuals through life transitions, emotional challenges, or personal growth, I strive to create a safe, non‐judgmental space where we can work together in meaningful partnership.

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’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.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 16 years of experience in education and mental health support. I hold a Master of Education in Counseling and Guidance from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.

My professional background includes extensive experience as a school counselor, which has strengthened my ability to support individuals through life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. Over time, my clinical work has expanded to include adolescents (15+), adults, and older adults.

I enjoy working with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, and relationship concerns. I also have a strong passion for working with older adults as they reflect on life experiences, cope with changes in health or independence, and find meaning and purpose in later stages of life.

In addition, I work with couples and married partners who are seeking to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection. I support couples in navigating conflict in healthier ways and developing a deeper understanding of one another.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives

I believe healing begins when we feel truly seen, heard, and understood. With 23 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults, I offer a warm and supportive space where you can share your story without judgment.

You don't have to do it alone—I'm here to support you every step of the way.
