The better you know yourself, the better your quality of life becomes.

I’m a warm, grounded, bilingual therapist (English/Spanish) who helps adults slow down, understand their inner world, and reconnect with clarity during times of change. My work centers on compassion rather than judgment, and I believe therapy should feel both human and hopeful.

I support clients through major life transitions, stress, relationship shifts, cultural identity concerns, grief, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply curious about your next chapter, I offer a space to reflect, realign, and regain a sense of possibility.

Many people come to therapy carrying pain that is difficult to put into words. You may understand why you're struggling, yet still find yourself repeating the same patterns, feeling stuck in painful relationships, grieving losses, or wondering why lasting change feels out of reach. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, infertility, trauma, stress, family concerns, maternal mental health challenges, and life transitions. Many of my clients are thoughtful, insightful people who want more than temporary relief, they want to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful, lasting change. Together, we'll explore the experiences, relationships, and emotional patterns that have shaped your life while building greater self-awareness and self-compassion. My goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen your relationships, and create a life that feels more connected, purposeful, and authentic.

So much of my work is rooted in one question: what happens when we stop trusting ourselves? For me, that question became very personal.

After the birth of my first child, I found myself carrying not only physical pain but a deep sense of disconnection. I was listening to every voice but my own — questioning my body, my instincts, my inner wisdom. It was disorienting in a way I hadn't expected.

With my second child, something shifted. The experience felt empowering, attuned, and deeply mine. I listened inward. I trusted my body. And I witnessed firsthand just how intelligent and wise the body truly is when we feel safe enough to connect with it.

That journey brought me back to something foundational — the body knows. Our minds and bodies are constantly communicating with us. But life has a way of teaching us to override those signals. Trauma, stress, cultural conditioning, the pressure to hold it all together — they all teach us to ignore our inner knowing. Healing, I believe, is often about learning to listen again. It's a homecoming.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Houston

Finding the right postpartum therapist in Houston starts with identifying the type of support you need. Perinatal mental health providers specialize in concerns that arise during pregnancy and after birth — including postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and adjusting to life as a new parent. Look for a licensed provider such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist with experience in perinatal care. Some providers hold a Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C), which indicates specialized training in this area.

Houston is home to a large and diverse network of mental health providers, which means you have options — but it can also make the search feel overwhelming. Consider what matters most: whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions, a provider who shares your background or speaks your language, or someone with experience in a specific area like birth trauma or medication management. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.

Therapy in Houston can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a postpartum therapist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
