Watching your teen or young adult navigate challenges like ADHD, self-harm, depression, or anxiety can be incredibly overwhelming. But you don’t have to face this journey alone.

As a parent, it’s natural to feel consumed by worry and fear, but the right support can create meaningful change. Using proven strategies, I help your child regulate their emotions, develop healthy coping skills, and build a confident, resilient sense of self—empowering them not just to manage but to truly thrive.

Do you feel burdened by emotional or physical pain that makes daily life feel overwhelming? Whether you're navigating the weight of past trauma or the challenges of chronic illness, healing and relief are within reach. Using proven mind-body approaches, such as somatic therapies and EMDR, we can work together to help you process trauma, manage pain, and restore balance to your life. Let’s embark on a journey to rediscover your inner light and bring ease to the pain you’re experiencing.

I am a Texas LPC. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field in various roles. I have a deep passion for working with people experiencing the effects of trauma. People are often nervous about beginning therapy; either they don't know what to expect or they've had some bad experiences in the past. We will collaborate to find the best strategies for you. We will talk about some things directly; we will address other things indirectly; each of these approaches work in different ways to assist you in processing and letting go of the pain and gaining new perspectives. I am certified by the Veteran's Health Administration to use the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale. I am also trained in Trauma-focused CBT. I am also a menopause coach, which means I can use both my coaching knowledge regarding menopause alongside therapy to address these women's issues. When you know something needs to change but aren't sure what to do, reach out to me. We can work together to find solutions. I always say, "If you want something different, you've got to do something different." The first step can be the most difficult. Let's connect!

Is your teen having difficulty navigating stress, conflict, or their identity? As a result, do they often feel alone or misunderstood? The transition into adulthood can be tough, and many teens experience anxiety, confusion, low self-esteem, and challenges in their relationships. It’s normal to be overwhelmed by these emotions and need guidance when establishing lifelong skills for coping and stress management. As a nonjudgemental, strengths-oriented therapist serving teens throughout the Houston area, I aim to create a strong therapeutic relationship that empowers and celebrates each individual throughout the counseling process. While each client receives their own personalized counseling plan, I often incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques in therapy for teens. By fostering skills for emotional awareness and distress tolerance, these approaches promote resilience, self-compassion, and healthier relationships. I understand the specific pressures teens face, which is why I strive to create a warm therapy environment where issues like stress, anxiety, and relationship conflict can be approached gently yet effectively. With a diverse personal and professional background,I offer a unique perspective that facilitates a holistic sense of self-discovery among my clients.

Do you struggle with codependency? Constantly seeking reassurance from others? People pleasing? Low self-esteem? Or maybe you’ve been struggling with maintaining relationships with others, issues with commitment, hyper-independence, or fear of abandonment? I know how heavy this can feel, and I would like you to know that you do not have to suffer in silence! I am an attachment-based therapist that focuses on how trauma impacts how you view yourself & others. Struggling with attachment issues often results in having issues with trusting and/or connecting to others. I would like to walk with you through your journey of healing. I form a collaborative therapeutic relationship with clients to help them take an active role in their healing. My goal is to help you address trauma so that you can form healthy and meaningful relationships. We will explore how past trauma is showing up in your current relationships with others, and how it is affecting your relationship with yourself. I aim to serve as a reminder to you that a positive life after pain is possible with the right tools & coping skills. My goal is to remind you that your strength & value comes from within. Your past does not define who you are today. You deserve peace. Show yourself grace, and schedule a free 15 minute consultation to start your process of healing.

What has been the toughest moment in your life? Sharing those experiences in a safe space can lead to profound transformation. I’ve dedicated my career to helping individuals and couples navigate life’s most challenging times. Whether you’re facing relationship distance, anxiety, grief, or a major transition, I’m here to help you regain your footing. My approach fosters vulnerability, connection, and resilience, giving you the tools to grow and thrive. Ready for healing and transformation? Let’s begin this journey together!
