About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 6 years of experience helping clients through difficult life changes, grief, depression, and anxiety.

I center my care within openness and compassion so that we may work together as you learn to care for yourself, and explore what brings meaning into your life.

I primarily rely on the theory of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, but also incorporate Narrative Therapy, and other creative outlets such as writing prompts, and inner-child work in collaboration with my clients. I have experience working with persons who identify as queer or a part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

I specialize in providing care to clients who need support for bereavement, as well as non-death related losses such as the loss of job, relationship, and other personal losses.

In our first session it’s like he could look into my mind and see what was wrong
