I am a licensed mental health professional who works with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and the emotional impact of difficult experiences. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood as they work through life’s challenges.

I believe therapy is most effective when it is a collaborative process. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I take the time to understand each person’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about what comes next. Together, we explore those challenges, build insight, and identify practical steps toward meaningful change.

I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, and deep respect for each person’s story. My hope is that clients leave each session feeling more grounded, empowered, and confident in their ability to navigate life’s challenges and move forward with greater clarity.

Welcome! I'm so glad you found your way to my page. You’re probably here because something just isn’t working for you in your life right now, or maybe for a while, and you want some new insight and tools to make some changes. Maybe you’ve felt anxious for a long time, but can’t quite get at the root of it. Or maybe you know where it comes from, but you’re struggling in your everyday life, job, relationships, or friendships to manage your emotions, or feel present. Maybe you feel stuck or uncertain in romantic relationships, or like you don’t know how to get your needs met or feel heard with your partner or spouse. You work hard and feel like you give a lot but you don’t get as much in return, or you’re always left feeling like you’re not enough. You may struggle with insecurity or self-doubt. You’re certainly not alone! I’m Emily, and I want to help you identify your feelings, your needs, your goals, and live your life the way you want to.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Texas. I work with adults and older adults who struggle with depression, anxiety, and stress. I have extensive experience with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in English and in Spanish, and have worked with vulnerable populations as a Social Worker for over 5 years. My approach to treatment is rooted in evidence-based practice that help clients identify and focus on their goals to change unhealthy ways into more productive habits.

I believe healing and growth happen best when people feel safe, accepted, and genuinely cared for. I love working with children, teens, and families, and I strive to create a warm, supportive space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.

For children, I have advanced training in Child-Centered Play Therapy, which allows them to express feelings, work through challenges, and build confidence through the natural language of play. Often, children communicate much more through play than they can with words, and I enjoy helping them feel understood and supported in ways that fit their developmental needs.
