About me

I am licensed in Texas with 15 years of professional work experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, honesty, and practical support. I specialize in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, major life transitions, coping with addictions, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
Whether you feel overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or simply ready for change, my goal is to help you feel heard, empowered and supported on your journey toward healing and JOY.
