I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) in Texas. I started my career in counseling because I saw how fear and uncertainty about the future can leave people feeling alone and doubting their potential. One of the things I love most about this work is helping people recognize the strengths they already have, and creating a plan of action to help them move toward the life they want. I enjoy collaborating with clients to brainstorm goals, explore possibilities, and create space for growth—all in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I provide messaging support between sessions, ensuring ongoing guidance with timely responses. My therapeutic style is both compassionate and practical. I specialize in working with individuals navigating ADHD, emotional regulation challenges such as anger, and the everyday stressors that can make life feel overwhelming. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) in my work—approaches that help you understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected, and empower you to take small, meaningful steps toward change. In our work together, I’ll help you identify and challenge your inner critic, build mindfulness, and create S.M.A.R.T. goals—Specific, Measurable, Action-Oriented, Realistic, and Timely—that make progress feel achievable. We’ll focus on finding solutions, strengthening emotional awareness, and celebrating the wins along the way. If you’re ready to explore your potential, find clarity and purpose, or reduce the impact of stress in your life, I would love to support you. By scheduling a session, we can begin building confidence, developing coping strategies, and working toward the goals that matter most to you.

Finding a licensed therapist near you in Texas can be an important step toward improving your mental health and overall well-being. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, or major life changes, working with a qualified mental health professional can offer meaningful support.

Texas is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities. Online therapy makes it easier to connect with a therapist near you without being limited to nearby offices. BetterHelp connects you with licensed therapists authorized to practice in Texas, allowing you to attend sessions online from the comfort of your home.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

Working with a licensed therapist near you ensures that your provider meets state licensing requirements and professional standards in Texas (TX). Licensed therapists use evidence-based approaches to help individuals manage emotional challenges, develop coping skills, and work toward personal goals.

People seek therapy for many reasons. Some are navigating ongoing mental health concerns, while others want guidance during stressful periods or major life transitions. You do not need a mental health diagnosis to work with a therapist. Many individuals seek therapy to improve communication, strengthen relationships, manage stress, or gain greater self-awareness.

Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Texas, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists on BetterHelp support adults across Texas with a wide range of mental health concerns and life challenges, including:

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Texas
