Greetings! I'm here to help you find the perfect match for counseling, as evidence shows this is the most important factor for long term success. My primary goals are to help you alleviate suffering and live meaningfully. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with several years of experience counseling in the mental health field since 2015. I graduated with a master’s degree in clinical psychology from Sam Houston State University. I have counseled students in a university setting, treated patients in a psychiatric hospital, worked with patients with severe substance abuse issues and co-occurring mental health issues, taught at the university level and supervised other therapists, and counseled individually in private practice. I've done psychotherapy with many different kinds of issues, such as mild to severe depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, traumatic stress, substance abuse and other addictions, psychotic disorders, mood disorders, grief and loneliness/meaninglessness. My approach to therapy ultimately begins with warm and non-judgmental support, no matter the problem. I seek to empower clients to make their own decisions and move towards valued-based living. I’ll be here for support, no matter what. Behind my approach is a cutting-edge technology in cognitive behavioral therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). My desire is to find the underlying processes that might be contributing to your suffering and individualize treatment together, using evidence-based methods, while also making sure you feel truly heard. Choosing the counselor that fits your needs and goals is crucial to your success in therapy. The counseling field has known for a long time now that the most reliable predictor of success in therapy is the therapeutic relationship itself. Make sure you feel good about your counselor—that you trust and respect them. Together we will create a unique space to talk about issues, learn to gain mental space from distressing thoughts, and build behaviors centered around your own values to invigorate your life with meaning and purpose. You’re not alone. It’s time to get out of your mind and into your life.

I have worked with clients with a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, panic attacks, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, ADHD, and attachment issues in children and adolescents. I am also licensed in clinical psychology as an LPA. My counseling style is informed, honest and direct. I won't tell you what you want to hear to keep you as a client. I will tell you what you need to know. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I don't believe in judging or lecturing anybody. That is not what therapy is about. If I don't agree with you, or I feel you are making bad choices, I will tell you, without being judgemental. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and humanistic counseling.
