I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with clinical experience providing counseling services to children, adolescents, and adults presenting with a range of mental health concerns, including trauma-related symptoms, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and interpersonal difficulties. I have worked with diverse populations and across varying levels of clinical acuity.
My clinical approach is trauma-informed and evidence-based, integrating cognitive-behavioral and skills-focused interventions to support emotional regulation, symptom management, and insight development. I prioritize establishing a therapeutic environment that is collaborative, structured, and emotionally safe, allowing clients to engage in treatment at an appropriate and clinically indicated pace.
I am committed to providing ethical, client-centered care and supporting individuals across the lifespan in improving psychological functioning, resilience, and overall well-being.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted by trying to manage your mental health on your own? Do you feel discouraged by the trial-and-error cycle of medications, uncertain whether anything will truly help, or unsure how to quiet the anxiety or heaviness that follows you through daily life?
You deserve care that feels clear, intentional, and supportive—care that respects who you are and where you come from. This is a space where your voice, culture, and lived experiences matter. Services are offered with cultural sensitivity, and support is available in Spanish for those who feel more comfortable expressing themselves in their native language.
Your needs come first—whether that means thoughtful medication management to reduce symptoms, supportive therapy to help you feel understood, or a combination of both. Together, we focus on stabilizing mood, easing anxiety and depression, and helping you regain a sense of direction and control. This is a space where your concerns are taken seriously, your experiences are validated, and your treatment is tailored to help you build clarity, resilience, and lasting well-being—step by step, at your pace.
Hello, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor serving clients in Texas and Arizona. I work with individuals who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or ready for meaningful change in their lives. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel intimidating, but you do not have to navigate it alone. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered as we work together toward healing, personal growth, and building the life you want for yourself.
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.
