Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Friendswood, TX

Hi! I'm a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health NP from Johns Hopkins University (2020) & Family NP from UT Austin (2017), a veteran flight nurse, as well as a certified Yoga instructor & Reiki practitioner. I practice Integrative Psychiatry—merging best practices from Eastern & Western Healthcare for a truly holistic approach. I help adults grappling with mental health challenges to reclaim their life, fostering overall health & mental well-being.

Starting therapy can often make people feel nervous and unsure about what to expect. I understand how hard it is to trust a stranger with such personal thoughts and feelings. I have been working to help others create a safe and productive space to share and grow since 2013.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I know reaching out for support isn’t always easy, and I want you to know you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to offer a calm, compassionate space where you feel safe to explore, heal, and grow.

I believe real change begins with genuine connection, and I strive to meet every client with warmth, understanding, and respect. Together, we’ll work at your pace to help you find clarity, strength, and a greater sense of peace.
