I am a graduate of Texas Woman's University where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a graduate of Amberton University where I've earned Master of Arts in Professional Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy. I have additionally earned a license in Chemical dependency as I have learned many struggle with addictions that contribute to challenges in their lives and I am here to help. I believe therapy is a process of meeting people where they are and helping them navigate the path to where they want to be. You can expect a thoughtful and collaborative approach that is tailored to your specific needs while valuing your autonomy. My integrative style involves clarifying what gives your life meaning and purpose, compassionate curiosity of yourself and your most important relationships. My goal is to encourage you to cultivate skills to help you make lasting changes to live a fulfilling life. Together, we will create an environment of mutual trust, respect and safety that honors the complexity of your unique human experience and salient identities. As we work together you will learn to take delight in your strengths and to tolerate and accommodate your weaknesses. Along the way, uncomfortable symptoms of anxiety, sadness, feeling stuck, over-using substances and other problems will improve. My commitment to and belief in personal autonomy means I won’t tell you what to do-which would presume that I know what is right for you-but will instead guide you on your own path of self-discovery.

In my seven years experience as a counselor, I have worked with adolescents and adults on anxiety and stress management, grieving, overcoming stressful thoughts and limiting belief systems, relationship issues, career issues and career goal development, adjustment to disability and unique issues related to having a disability, strategies for being successful in college and work, moving forward in life after trauma, and many other areas. I believe a person's growth is enhanced and accelerated with a coach or counselor to support them by asking good questions and offering encouragement in a way that brings awareness and clarity.

Hey—I’m glad you’re here. Really. I work with people who are trying to manage the chaos that can come with ADHD, big life transitions, or just trying to keep it all together when it feels like things are slipping through the cracks. Maybe your focus is all over the place, you’re juggling a thousand things, or you’re in the middle of a life change that’s left you feeling ungrounded. I get it—and you’re not alone. I take a straightforward, solution-focused approach. That means we’ll talk about what’s going on right now, figure out what’s working (even if it doesn’t feel like much), and build some real, practical tools you can actually use. No fluff—just a space to get honest, figure things out, and make moves that get you where you want to be. I know it can be tough to reach out for help, especially when you’re used to handling things on your own. But if you’re ready to start doing things differently, I’ve got your back.
