Hi, I'm a Bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Approved Supervisor (LPC-S) in the State of Texas. I received my Masters in Rehabilitation Counseling from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and have been practicing for 8 years. I'm certified as a Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP), as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I help patients who are facing various emotional challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship problems, career transitions, and life adjustments. I offer guidance, empathy, and evidence-based techniques to help navigate life's difficulties, overcome obstacles and help reach your own personal goals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session together is a foundational step in the therapeutic process, where we will establish a safe and supportive environment. This session will assist us in being able to gather information, set goals, and lay the groundwork for a collaborative alliance.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strengths consist of creating a space where my patients feel heard, understood, and accepted. This safe environment allows my clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment, leading to deeper self-awareness and growth.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I enjoy working with patients who are motivated, open to self-exploration, and committed to their own healing journey. My patients inspired not to face challenges alone, rather value collaboration in order to achieve goals together.
