My Evening and standing appointments are done via zoom, are 60 minutes and are reserved for clients that are self-pay or utilizing their insurance. I accept some appointments via the BetterHelp calendar but BetterHelp sessions are limited to 45 minutes which essentially is 40 minutes of therapy. This is a limiting factor of the site; I am not paid for engaging with clients for longer than 45 minutes so it is important to come to these sessions prepared as our time here is somewhat limited. You do not have to go through this journey of life alone. Allow me to meet you where you are at and help be your guide in this amazing journey called life. Together we will find healing through proven models of treatment that I am formally trained in and have practiced for many years.

Life can feel like too much sometimes. Maybe you're carrying anxiety that won’t quiet down. Maybe you're stuck in cycles that leave you feeling exhausted or disconnected. Or maybe you’ve been through things that changed you, and now you’re trying to make sense of who you are and how to move forward. If any of that sounds familiar, I want you to know you’re not alone and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I’m a licensed therapist in New Mexico and Texas with experience supporting adults who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, trauma, relationship struggles, and self-esteem challenges. My approach is rooted in compassion and collaboration. I meet you where you are, and we work together to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and person-centered practices. That means we’ll explore your inner world, develop skills to manage emotions and thoughts, and focus on what really matters to you...not just what’s “supposed” to matter. You don’t have to perform or prove anything in therapy. You get to show up as you are, even if that feels messy. This is a space where we can unpack what’s been weighing on you and begin building something new. You’re allowed to take up space. You’re allowed to heal. And you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s take that first step together.
