Every person has a story. The culmination of experiences in one's life shapes how they view themselves, their relationships, and the world. I have a passion for helping clients celebrate their unique strengths and gifts they share with others. With experiences in both private practice and hospitals, I have noticed a particular need for clients to separate their view of themselves from their current difficulties and circumstances. In spite of where clients may find themselves at the moment, my belief is that they have overcome every difficulty, challenge, and trauma that they have faced up to the present moment. As such, they will withstand their current circumstances, and will again declare victory.

Some seasons of life are just hard, and you don’t have to go through them alone. As a Licensed Professional Counselor who is passionate about helping people feel supported and understood, I believe everyone deserves to be seen and heard.

I also believe our backstory matters. It often shapes how we think, feel, and relate to others. My role is to help you make sense of those experiences while building the tools you need to overcome insecurities, heal from past trauma, and manage anxiety and stress. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more confident, empowered, and in control of your life.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP‐BC) with Radiance Psychiatry and Wellness, I take a whole‐person approach to mental health care. I recognize that emotional well‐being is shaped by many factors — physical health, stress, relationships, and life experiences — and I work with clients to address each of these areas.

I have experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach blends medication management with supportive therapy, patient education, and lifestyle‐based strategies. I strive to create a welcoming, culturally sensitive space where clients feel empowered, understood, and supported.

My goal is to help you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.

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.
