I have plenty of life experience dealing with most issues and over 30 years of experience in pastoral and faith based counseling. I am a state licensed therapist with a doctorate in clinical psychology. I have been happily married for 35 years, I have raised 4 children, and I’ve owned various small businesses.
I am a passionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping preteens, adolescents, and young adults who are grappling with the complexities of mental health disorders, such as anxiety and depression. My clients are overwhelmed by their emotions, struggling to manage daily responsibilities, relationships, and academic pressures. They may feel sad, hopeless, or experience intense anxiety that interferes with their ability to function and thrive. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to navigate their emotional challenges, learn effective coping strategies and improve overall wellbeing,
With over 10 years of experience as a School Psychologist, I support children’s social, emotional, and academic growth. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I also specialize in stress, anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC). I graduated from Lamar University in August 2024 with a master's degree in counseling and development. I earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Houston – Downtown in 2012 with a major in psychology and a minor in sociology. My very first degree was an associate's in Arts from Houston Community College. I have worked in the field for about 12 years.
My career as a professional Counselor is new. I was forced to leave a 26 year career behind after a fall at work prevented me from being able to that job any longer. Forced to live on disability, I went back to school to earn a degree that led to where I am now.
I feel my life experiences afford me a no-judgement, above-average understanding of people, their experiences, and their behaviors.

I’m a member of Mensa and have been in the American Counseling Association and the Texas Counseling Association. While I have treated a long list of issues my main focus has been working with couples, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and past trauma.
If you choose me I would feel honored to help as best I can. I work with age ranges from six year olds to seniors. I like to say I want difficult and complex cases but you are not a case.
I help clients work through anxiety and trauma in a way that feels human, supportive, and grounded. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical—I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space where healing can actually happen.
My approach is holistic, combining emotional processing with practical tools for everyday life. It’s not just about understanding the past—it’s about building the skills you need to thrive in the present. I tailor my work to each person’s unique needs, especially when supporting trauma survivors, neurodivergent individuals (including those with ADHD or autism), and those managing PTSD, trauma or grief.
