Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Temple, TX

Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia, and I’m passionate about supporting adults on their journey toward healing and well-being. With a master’s degree from Virginia Commonwealth University and over seven years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, and other life stressors.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner serving clients in Texas, Maryland & New York. I work with diverse kinds of clients (Age 18 +) with different cultural backgrounds and mental health problems. I specialize in depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, Insomnia, bipolar disorder, eating disorder, personality disorder and much more. I am a compassionate provider with a passion for patients with mental illness.

For those who value efficiency. My approach is direct, strategic, and results-driven.

You are driven, smart, and successful. Something is keeping you stuck. Let’s investigate and make real progress. I work a little differently. Direct feedback, thoughtful goals, and therapy that is intentional, not endless.

Is your child feeling overwhelmed, withdrawn, or unlike themselves? I’m an LPC with 5 years of experience as a teacher and 9 years as a high school counselor. I support children and teens navigating trauma, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, depression, anxiety, and other challenges that can feel overwhelming for the whole family. I offer counseling in English and Spanish.

Do you feel stuck in treatment or unsure what to try next? As a Christian counselor, I have helped hundreds of people, from children to corporate leaders, improve their quality of life. I specialize in chronic pain and stress, and also support anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns, including parenting, marriage, and workplace challenges grounded in faith and practical care.

My approach is completely centered on your needs. I will meet you where you are and tailor services to you—an approach known as Person-centered.

This approach aims to have you gain insight and independence. After all, you are the expert of your life and your experience. I see my role as supporting you in achieving your potential by honing in on your strengths and, ultimately, helping you become empowered.

Starting therapy can often make people feel nervous and unsure about what to expect. I understand how hard it is to trust a stranger with such personal thoughts and feelings. I have been working to help others create a safe and productive space to share and grow since 2013.
