As a mental health counselor and certified professional coach, I focus on helping you move forward and create the life you truly want. With more than 15 years of experience supporting people from all walks of life, I’ve seen how powerful it can be when small, meaningful changes start to show up early in the process. When you can see progress within the first few weeks, it builds motivation and confidence to keep going.
Our work together will center on making those kinds of intentional, practical shifts—so the effort you put in feels directly connected to the changes you notice in your life. I see therapy as a tool to support your growth, not something that has to last forever. My goal is to help you feel more capable, clear, and confident to live life on your own terms, long after our time together.
Growth and change are lifelong journeys, and I’m here to help you take that next meaningful step forward.
I would love to assist you in beginning your healing journey. Since beginning my counseling career, I have worked with a wide variety of clients from children/adolescent to adults. I am passionate about helping clients who are working on healing from trauma. I also love working with teens and young adults who may be in transitional seasons or are facing overwhelming situations in their life. Additionally, I find joy in walking with those who may be navigating difficult family circumstances and learning to find their place and purpose in life.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Houston. I specialize in helping adults and older adults navigate workplace stress, family challenges, and emotional wellbeing. My areas of focus include career burnout, work-life balance, anxiety, depression, intimate partner violence, divorce, caregiving stress, and cross-cultural adjustment.
I believe every person carries an inner strength that can be uncovered and nurtured. In therapy, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can share your story, build resilience, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years, seeing clients privately for almost 15. You can trust me to provide a supportive and safe environment. We will work together to build coping skills and confidence to take on life's daily challenges.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Texas starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — whether that's anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or something else — and look for a licensed provider with experience in that area. Texas-licensed therapists include Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs), and psychologists, each with different training backgrounds. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.
With Texas being the second-largest state in the country, access to in-person care varies widely depending on where you live. Virtual therapy makes it possible to connect with a licensed provider from anywhere in the state, whether you're in a major metro area or a smaller community. Many providers on Headway offer both virtual and in-person sessions, so you can choose what works best for your schedule and preferences.
Therapy in Texas can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits your needs and your budget.
