Seeking therapy to address mental and emotional health is an empowering decision that will transform your life. Therapy helps build self-awareness of emotions, thoughts, behaviors and decision making. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, abandonment, anger, boundary issues, depression, family conflict, or grief, therapy will lead to healthier outcomes. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and graduate of University of Houston-Clear Lake. I have five years of experience in the mental health field, during this time I have worked with individuals from many different walks of life. Some of my experience includes individual and group therapy, family therapy and substance abuse/addiction recovery. My experience has inspired me and allowed me to better understand the world we live in. To best meet the specific and unique needs of each individual, often times an integrative approach is most helpful. This brings together different elements of specific therapies where I draw from client-centered, cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic approaches. As a Licensed Professional Counselor committed to the therapeutic process, it is essential that I ensure a positive and supportive therapeutic environment. In this space you will be free to express, explore, and begin to understand your feelings and how to process them. Learning to trust and honor your efforts to bring about healing and personal growth is a rewarding experience. If you are new to therapy or would like to return, you will not have to do it alone. I look forward to meeting and supporting you on your journey.

Whatever the challenge you are facing today, counseling can help you find your path to your authentic self and a life you love and deserve. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor - Supervisor licensed in Texas with over 27 years of experience working as a professional counselor and life coach. My practice has transitioned into one that promotes growth and change in individual adults and couples. I am trained in mediation and as a collaborative law counseling facilitator. My practice specializes in women’s issues, relationship issues, and individual transition issues. I assist employers, employees, students, athletes, and professional performance artists in the process of tapping into their core self to release the optimum level in talent, skill, and productivity. Counseling can be what you make of it; therefore, I utilize a multifaceted program of therapy (solution focused, client-centered, Cognitive Behavioral) in order to address your challenges which are as unique and individualized as are you. In other words, I am flexible in my approach. My goal is to meet you where you are in your journey and together, we will take the steps necessary toward living the life you want to live. During your counseling journey, my role is to help guide you in your discovery of the challenges you are facing and then reflect your feelings, statements, and actions in response to your identified challenges. We all need someone to listen and reflect to us (without fear of judgment) the story we tell of our struggles; therefore, counseling is meant for each one of us at some point in our lives. I believe this is the reason you are here learning about how I can be here for you – if you choose. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. Challenges impact every part of your life – mentally, physically, spiritually, so let’s start your journey today.

Our challenges can sometimes be simple, but other times, they can be like puzzles. Multiple factors and layers can play a part to produce complicated issues that are difficult to unravel. Ultimately, our mental health boils down to our world-view and how we perceive the events we experience. It’s important to remember that it’s not that our problems are unsolvable, it’s just that the solutions haven’t been identified or manifested yet. Further exploration may be needed. I am able to use a variety of treatment methods to support you in creating the life you want. I have my LCSW in Texas and California and have worked primarily in mental health and healthcare. I’d love to join you on your path towards a fulfilled and abundant life.
