Empowering Growth Through Compassionate, Personalized Therapy
Welcome to Free Your Mind Counseling, where healing meets authenticity. My practice is founded on the belief that every individual deserves a safe and supportive space to heal, grow, and thrive. I provide personalized, culturally responsive therapy for trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions—grounded in empathy, respect, and collaboration.
I specialize in existential, eclectic, and integrative therapies, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic, Humanistic, and Experiential frameworks. This flexible, holistic approach allows me to meet clients where they are—emotionally, mentally, and spiritually—rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method.
My academic foundation includes a Master of Arts in Counseling from Prairie View A&M University and a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice with a specialization in Juvenile Justice. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and bring over a decade of experience in the criminal justice system, substance use recovery programs, and diverse mental health settings.
I am also completing my Doctoral degree at Houston Christian University in the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences, majoring in Executive Mental Health and Human Services—a reflection of my commitment to advancing mental health leadership and community impact.
My philosophy centers on helping clients discover purpose, balance, and self-acceptance through integrative, trauma-informed care. I believe in engaging deeply—not just listening, but empowering transformation. My mission is to create a nonjudgmental space where healing isn’t just possible—it’s expected.
I know that reaching out for help takes courage — and I want to make that process as simple and comfortable as possible. My practice focuses on anxiety, depression, and addiction, and I believe real progress happens when you feel heard and respected every step of the way. I take time to understand what's going on in your life before we talk about next steps, whether that's medication, therapy, or both. My goal is to give you clear information and practical support so you feel more in control of your mental health.
I’m a therapist that wants you to feel more at home in your life and emotions. I know reaching out can feel scary, especially when life feels uncertain or suddenly different, so I focus on creating a space that feels calm, safe, and truly supportive. I speak English and Spanish, and I deeply respect each person’s story, culture, and values as we work together.
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.
I believe that healing begins with being heard, understood, and supported in a safe, nonjudgmental space. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I specialize in working with clients navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship stress, life transitions, and self-esteem struggles. My approach integrates evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) with mindfulness, self-compassion, and strengths-based techniques.
I believe growth is possible for everyone, and I am passionate about supporting clients as they rediscover hope, confidence, and balance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Pasadena
Finding family therapists in Pasadena starts with knowing what your family wants to work on together. Family therapy can support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication patterns across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare Pasadena therapists, look for experience with your specific needs, such as parent-teen support, marriage counseling, or family sessions that include multiple generations.
Pasadena is a smaller local market, so the number of nearby family therapists may be more limited than in Houston or other larger Texas cities. Virtual care can expand your options while still giving you access to licensed therapists in Texas. Some family therapy sessions include the full family, while others focus on parents, siblings, couples, or individual family members. Before booking, read each therapist’s profile to understand their approach, session structure, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Family therapy in Pasadena can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, and you can review which providers accept your plan and are accepting new patients. You can review bios, see estimated costs before booking, and choose between in-person and virtual appointments when available.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer.
