Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Magnolia, TX

I provide Christian faith-based counseling in a safe, warm, accepting, and inclusive environment. I am a dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor with individual and group counseling experience working with both children and adults with various diagnoses, such as Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Serious Emotional Disturbances, Developmental Disabilities, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Substance Abuse Disorders, etc. My experience also includes working with people experiencing homelessness; survivors of human trafficking, prostitution, domestic violence, and natural disasters.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience, dedicated to helping individuals find balance, clarity, and confidence in their lives. I primarily work with women who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or stuck in cycles that no longer serve them—whether in relationships, career, or how they view themselves. Many of my clients are navigating the emotional impact of life transitions like menopause, body changes, and weight management, often in silence and without support.

As a trilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (Portuguese, Spanish, English), I offer a compassionate and culturally sensitive space. I understand how culture, language, and generational expectations can shape the way we experience mental health, body image, and self-worth.

I have over 30 years of experience in diverse fields of mental health. I love what I do and have a true passion to help people.
