No one in life is perfect, including me! Being able to identify, relate and empathize with you as my patient is probably one of my greatest strengths. The special relationship formed between you and I, ensuring trust, confidence, and ability to truly work through the issues are of utmost importance. I believe everyone has something to work through in their lives. By providing evidence based therapy and unconditional positive regard, I have been very effective in my treatment history. I will always begin where you feel you need to go in therapy and allow you to guide me in your struggles, what you need most and what you desire to gain from therapy. This is a two way relationship and feedback throughout the therapeutic process will only enhance the therapeutic relationship towards your goals. I wish for you to find the inner peace and strength that I know everyone has within them and to be able to achieve and live the life that makes you feel truly alive! As for some information about myself, I am a retired Army social worker and love that I have had the ability to work with Soldiers throughout a multitude of issues to include PTSD, depression, anxiety, phase of life issues, grief and loss, marital counseling, substance abuse, domestic violence intervention, parenting skills, and adjustment issues. My background and strengths are in utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Prolonged Exposure and other desensitization therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, and Supportive Therapy. I like to provide psycho-education and lots of coping skills, self-reflective, and other psychological tools to allow patients to learn and grow via hands-on materials. Growth comes with constant practice and application of the things we learn. I hope you will allow me to be part of your journey and I look forward to meeting you.

Welcome! I always tell clients it is equally important for them to get to know me as much as I do them before therapy begins . Honesty and transparency are valuable in therapy, and I know it sets the foundation for a working therapist-client relationship. To begin, I have been a bilingual (English-Spanish) Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas for the past 14 years and have worked in a variety of settings including private practice, local mental health agencies, hospitals, and university settings. I have experience in helping clients with depression, postpartum depression, stress and anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and women related issues especially motherhood. I specialize in targeting family of origin issues which means I find it valuable to understand where patterns and habits in your life may come from and the life experiences that may also still impact you today. I use a solution focused and narrative therapy approach, always seeking client strengths and personal successes to help them write the next chapter in their life. I have helped clients of all ages including individuals, couples, and families. I earned a Doctorate of Philosophy in Family Therapy in 2018 from Texas Woman's University and I earned a Master's of Science in Professional Counseling from Texas Wesleyan University in 2006. My therapy style is warm and collaborative. I know the importance of being culturally sensitive and treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I listen to every person's unique story as if I am hearing it for the first time, and so that I can tailor our work and treatment goals to meet your specific needs. I believe that you are the expert of your story and though you may be feeling momentarily stuck, I know that together we can find ways to fulfill your best hopes.
