I received my Ph.D. from UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas, a clinically focused school with significant access to psychological and medical training. I transitioned to private practice in 2018 in order to allow for deeper work with clients. I enjoy working with clients on a variety of issues, but identity, meaning-making, and life transitions are of particular interest.
I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in treating childhood attachment wounds, complex trauma, anxiety, and depression. I also enjoy parent coaching.
I strive for creating the conditions were humans can regain their curiosity, hope, and a new interactional perspective of themselves. Having also also known love, generosity, tolerance, respect and solidarity. I reject the need for cynicism: under the right conditions one can comfortably adhere to the unconditional confidence in the human potential for self-understanding, tolerance and positive change.

You don't have to explain your whole story before we get started. Whether you're working through old trauma, anxiety that follows you into every room, or family dynamics that have never felt right, I'm here to help you make sense of it, and move through it.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master of Science in counseling. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, and I've supported people through trauma, grief, addiction, bipolar disorder, relationship conflict, and some of life's most disorienting transitions. I bring cultural awareness, warmth, and a direct style to every session. Good therapy should feel real, not clinical.
I became a therapist because I believe healing happens in relationship, and I'm committed to being a consistent, grounded presence in that process. I have been in the mental health field in last 5 years and a mental health therapist since 2024.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Garland, TX
Searching for family therapists in Garland starts with finding someone trained to support the full family system. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication across generations, and major changes at home. As you compare therapists, look for training or listed specialties that match what your family is navigating. Licensed marriage and family therapists, therapists with family systems training, and therapists who describe work with parents, teens, or multigenerational families may be strong matches.
Garland offers local therapy options while also sitting near the broader Dallas-Fort Worth area, so your search can include both nearby offices and virtual appointments. Some families prefer in-person sessions when several people plan to attend. Others choose virtual care when school, work, transportation, or different household schedules make office visits harder to coordinate. Session structure can vary, with some appointments including the full family and others focused on parents, siblings, or individual family members. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each therapist structures family sessions, communicates with multiple participants, and approaches shared goals.
Therapy in Garland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket expense before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and may show appointment availability. You can compare family therapists in Garland, review their profiles, see estimated costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
