New to Grow
You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone! Support, clarity, and growth are possible. Hi, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I’m really glad you’re here. Reaching out for support isn’t always easy, and my goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and encouraged every step of the way. I take a supportive and practical approach to therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs. I often use solution-focused and evidence-based strategies to help you build coping skills, navigate challenges, and move toward your goals with confidence. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults in both in-person and virtual settings. My background in education and counseling has given me a strong foundation in supporting emotional well-being, personal growth, and life transitions. I believe therapy should feel collaborative and empowering. Whether you’re navigating stress, relationships, or a life transition, I’m here to support you in building skills and creating meaningful, lasting change. I earned my Master’s degree in School Counseling/Licensed Professional Counseling from The University of Houston at Victoria and my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from The University of Texas at Austin (Hook ’em Horns!). I Specialize In: -Anxiety and stress management -Life transitions and adjustment challenges -School-related concerns and academic stress -Social and emotional development -Goal-setting and personal growth -Building coping and communication skills
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I want you to know that my goal is to make the process as comfortable and welcoming as possible. During our first session, we’ll spend time getting to know each other and discussing what brings you to counseling. We’ll talk about your current concerns, challenges, strengths, and goals, as well as any important background information that can help me better understand your experiences. This is also an opportunity for you to ask questions about the counseling process and what you hope to gain from our work together. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to your unique needs. There is no pressure to share everything at once—we will move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Together, we’ll begin identifying goals and exploring practical strategies that can help you move forward with greater confidence and clarity. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, stress, life transitions, school-related concerns, or personal growth, our first session is about creating a foundation of trust and developing a plan that supports your success. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward growth, healing, and positive change.
One of my greatest strengths is creating a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves. I believe meaningful growth happens when people feel heard, understood, and empowered, and I strive to build that foundation from the very first session. My background in both education and counseling allows me to bring a unique perspective to my work with children, adolescents, and adults. I understand the challenges that can come with school, life transitions, stress, and personal growth, and I use that experience to help clients develop practical solutions that fit their lives. I take a collaborative and goal-oriented approach, combining evidence-based strategies with genuine encouragement and support. Rather than focusing only on problems, I help clients recognize their strengths, build effective coping skills, and identify actionable steps toward positive change. Clients often appreciate that I am approachable, encouraging, and adaptable. Every person’s journey is different, so I tailor treatment to meet each client’s unique needs, strengths, and goals. My focus is on helping clients gain confidence, develop resilience, and create meaningful, lasting progress both inside and outside of therapy.
My ideal client is someone who is ready to explore personal growth, develop new skills, and work toward meaningful change, even if they are unsure where to begin. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults who may be experiencing anxiety, stress, life transitions, school-related challenges, or difficulties adjusting to new circumstances. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about their next steps. They may be looking for healthier coping strategies, improved communication skills, greater self-confidence, or support navigating academic, personal, or professional challenges. Others may simply want a safe space to process their experiences and gain clarity about their goals. I work best with individuals who value a collaborative approach and are open to learning practical tools they can apply in their everyday lives. My goal is to help clients build on their strengths, increase resilience, and create positive, lasting change. Whether someone is facing a specific challenge or seeking personal growth, I am committed to meeting them where they are and supporting them on their journey toward greater well-being and fulfillment.
I use a Person-Centered approach by creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood. I believe each person has unique strengths and the ability to grow and make positive changes. Through empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, I help clients increase self-awareness, build confidence, and identify solutions that align with their personal values and goals. This approach allows clients to take an active role in their healing and growth while feeling supported throughout the process.
I use Solution-Focused Brief Treatment by helping clients identify their strengths, build on what is already working, and focus on achievable goals. Rather than concentrating solely on problems, we work together to develop practical solutions and positive changes that can be applied in daily life. This approach encourages clients to recognize their abilities, increase confidence, and make meaningful progress toward their goals in a supportive and efficient way.
