As a licensed therapist in Texas with over five years of professional experience, I specialize in helping individuals break through the barriers of anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, trauma, and depression. Whether you're navigating past wounds or building self-worth and confidence, I provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can speak freely and start healing. Together, we’ll work to reconnect you with your strength, clarity, and purpose.

I began this journey with one clear mission: to change the way we view mental health. I’m passionate about breaking the stigma around seeking help and fostering a society where taking care of your mental health is seen as a brave and empowering step toward personal growth and well-being. As a reliable ally for anyone navigating their mental health journey, I bring years of experience working with individuals facing a wide range of challenges, from stress, anxiety, and anger management to building self-confidence, tackling depression, improving social skills, managing ADHD, and supporting defiant teens. I also specialize in emotional struggles, conflict resolution, and educational challenges, including special education, always tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each person.

I am highly trained and deeply committed to helping teens and families thrive. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling, advanced training in Christian counseling, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with certifications in school counseling, trauma-informed care, youth mental health, and human resources. I am also completing my Doctorate in Educational Leadership, where my research focuses on mental health needs and counselor workload.

My education and experience allow me to blend clinical expertise with a strong understanding of how families, schools, and communities shape well-being.

I love working with teens because adolescence is a powerful and challenging season. I have supported young people through anxiety, grief, trauma, identity concerns, academic stress, and family conflict, and I am passionate about creating a space where they feel seen, supported, and understood. I also work closely with families, helping them improve communication, strengthen relationships, and build healthier patterns together.

My practice is guided by faith, compassion, and professionalism. I offer biblically based counseling for clients who desire it, while always maintaining a safe, respectful, and evidence-based approach. Above all, I am a counselor who listens. I honor your experiences, respect your values, and work with you at a pace that feels right as we move toward healing and growth.
