Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Killeen, TX

So nice to meet you!

As a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I believe good mental health is paramount for a stable and happy life. Congratulations on taking the first step in seeking help for your mental health! I’ve been practicing for 3 years with my main focus now on female clients aged 15-55 who are struggling with anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder.

Welcome! I am a dual Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I offer medication management, diagnosis and evaluation. Whether it's making sure your meds are working right, dealing with any side effects, or just feeling better overall. I treat a range of mental health issues, including Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, Schizophrenia, Bipolar and ADHD. I am here to ensure you feel supported and empowered, and your input is absolutely crucial.

I love people; they're my favorite! ;)

For over 20 years, I've been in roles dedicated to supporting and serving others—work that continues to bring me deep joy. Over the past four years, I’ve focused specifically on therapy, walking alongside clients in their growth and healing journeys. I’d be honored to support you as you take this next step.

Coming from a family of Educators and having over 20 years of experience in education and counseling, has provided me with the opportunity to service a variety of individuals and has given me a strong desire to help children as young as 5 years of age to adults and families in crisis situations. I also believe our experiences help create who we are, and each day we are given an opportunity to start new.

My focus has been on helping people cope with trauma, physical, sexual or emotional. I graduated from Texas Tech in 2015 with my master's in Community Mental Health Counseling.

As a dedicated therapist with over 12 years of experience, I am passionate about helping adolescents, adults, and couples navigate life’s challenges. I believe in creating a compassionate and nonjudgmental space where clients feel truly heard and supported.

I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with experience providing care in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings. My clinical background allows me to support adults across a wide range of mental health needs—from acute stabilization to ongoing outpatient treatment—while maintaining a thoughtful, individualized approach to care.

I received my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) degree from Texas State University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. I am known for my warm, approachable style and for taking the time to truly listen, as I believe effective mental health care begins with trust, collaboration, and feeling understood.

I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and life stressors. My approach emphasizes conservative medication management, clear patient education, and shared decision-making so individuals feel informed and confident in their care.

In addition to my psychiatric training, I have a background in women’s health, which enhances my understanding of how physical health and life-stage factors can influence mental well-being. This perspective allows me to provide well-rounded, inclusive care for all adults.

Whether you are seeking psychiatric care for the first time, transitioning from inpatient treatment, or looking for ongoing outpatient support, my goal is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you feel respected, heard, and empowered throughout your care.

Hello, I am so glad you found my page today, that alone is a big step!

I am a seasoned Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, which means I can hold space for both parties in a session. I can remain calm and objective during times of high conflict and times of deep pain.

I work from the science of attachment and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I am also educated in couples trauma, neurodivergent couples, executive and entrepreneurial couples, and infidelity repair.

Hi, I’m really glad you’re here. If you’ve been feeling stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, overwhelmed by anxiety or life transitions, or noticing the same struggles showing up in your relationships, you’re not alone. Many people carry ways of coping that once helped them get through difficult moments but now feel limiting or exhausting. I work with young adults, adults, and couples who are ready to better understand themselves and create meaningful, lasting change. With a background in education and counseling across all developmental stages, I bring a deeper understanding of how early experiences shape who we are today and how we can begin to shift those patterns.

I have over a decade of experience working across both educational and clinical settings, supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and patterns rooted in early experiences. I work with young adults, adults, and couples who want to break out of cycles that no longer serve them and feel more grounded, intentional, and connected in their lives. My work is especially helpful for those exploring how past experiences continue to influence present thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
