Are you ready to create lasting change and unlock your fullest potential? As a compassionate therapist with over 10 years of experience, I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, PTSD, depression, relationship challenges, family conflicts, self-esteem issues, and more. My approach is client-centered, and I work collaboratively with you to set goals, identify obstacles, and implement strategies for growth. Whether you're struggling with motivation or seeking to build confidence, I am here to support you every step of the way. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas and a certified Trauma Sensitive Yoga facilitator, offering a unique and holistic approach to healing. I also have a background as a Health and Wellbeing Coach, which allows me to incorporate a variety of tools and modalities into our work together. If you're interested, I can weave trauma-sensitive yoga into our sessions to support emotional healing, grounding, and relaxation—an offering that sets me apart and is beneficial for those dealing with PTSD, military trauma, or sexual abuse trauma. I believe in meeting you exactly where you are. During our sessions, I will actively listen, provide a nonjudgmental space, and adapt our treatment plan to fit your unique needs. The first session will focus on getting to know you, discussing your goals, and understanding your past experiences with therapy. I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you challenge unhelpful thought patterns and create lasting behavior changes. From there, we will set actionable goals, track progress, and adapt as needed. My goal is to empower you to take control of your life, making space for healing, growth, and positive change. Together, we will work to integrate your values into your goals, helping you to achieve a more balanced and fulfilling life. If you're ready to begin your journey, I would love to walk alongside you. Let’s get started today!
