About me

You are not alone. At one point or another, we all experience issues related to relationships, work and family. Oftentimes those experiences are associated with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and feelings and emotions that we cannot explain. Counseling is an opportunity to participate in evidence-based treatments to help cope with mental and emotional distress and begin the journey to becoming the best version of you. As a mental health therapist my goal is to provide a safe, open and nonjudgmental environment to help individuals improve mental health, address relationship difficulties and adjust to life’s changes. BE EMPOWERED! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. I have been working in the field of counseling for 11 years and employed with the State of Texas as a Rehabilitation Counselor for 10 years. I work with clients with varying mental and physical disabilities, ranging from ages 14 to 80. My specialties include Anxiety, Depression, Relationship Issues, Women’s Issues, Career Counseling and Transition Counseling for adolescents. Although counseling is a process, it is an opportunity for you to gain confidence, inner peace, achieve goals and become the best version of you. I encourage you to reach out and let’s start your journey. Support is critical for any change to occur; let me be your SUPPORT. I only provide virtual therapy via a Hippa compliant platform for your protection and security.

Im very excited about starting therapy. As a young black woman having the ability to speak openly, honestly while feeling understood is amazing. Yvonne helped achieve that! I look forward to my therapy journey with her!
