I have been working in the field of mental health for 14 years. I have experience working with a diverse range of people and mental health disorders. My professional background includes experience in the inpatient, outpatient, and intake hospital setting; non-profit agency setting; and, most recently, private practice. This experience allowed me the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, adults, and families utilizing a variety of unique interventions including cognitive-behavioral therapy, play therapy, eye movement desensitization (EMDR), and sand tray. I specialize in the treatment of trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but I often take a client centered approach when building a trusting relationship with clients. Research shows that people who experience chronic mental health concerns have untreated trauma, which can occur from a variety of different experiences. Of course, trauma does not account for all mental health concerns, so it is important to be able to meet client's where they are at and provide interventions that are helpful to the individual needs of each client.

Hi—I see you. You're in your 20s or 30s, dealing with a brutal breakup, a messy divorce, a situationship from hell. You are feeling small. Your heart's been through it, and some days just getting out of bed feels impossible. I get it, and I'm here to help. My approach is down-to-earth and real. I bring warmth, humor, and steady support to our sessions. I'm not just here to listen (though we love a good vent)—I'm here to gently challenge you, help you spot the patterns, and walk alongside you as you heal and remember your own strength. Let's work with your whole self—mind, body, & values. We'll process feelings, spot patterns, and build real strategies. I will help you get clear on what matters most, then use that as your compass for decisions. It's time to decide what deserves your energy, and what doesn't. You'll leave feeling lighter and more like yourself.

Former active duty Navy, I am very passionate about a sound philosophy of unity that can bring people closer to their goals.

I would love to help others better understand this process and see how much good can be produced when we learn to overcome our weaknesses with our strengths.

Trauma hurts. It can be sudden, life-altering and overwhelming, or chronic, subtle and nearly unnoticeable, but either way it can change the way we think about others, the world, and unfortunately, ourselves. Dealing with the aftermath—changes in our relationships, lashing out toward self or others, feeling nothing and/or everything all at once—is sometimes as hard as the initial event, especially when society, friends and family and our own minds tell us to “just get over it.” Worse, sometimes we aren’t even sure where the trauma came from in the first place, leaving us confused and even feeling hopeless. If you could just “get over it,” you would, but sometimes the brain simply cannot process traumatic events without help, and this is why trauma therapy exists. :) I'm an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas.

I approach clients with the an open mindset, looking to explore what the client needs and what they want for themselves. I always want my clients to know there is no judgement from me in their decisions, EVER. I view everyone's mistakes as us just being human and having a human experience. This practice of examining our human journey and what motivates us to do the things we do is extended to myself, my clients and my children/family. I often attempt to have the practice of asking myself "why did I do that? Did I do that because of this or because I was feeling blank?" I think it is important to help others get to the place where they ask themselves the same type of questions. We're all here just having human experiences!
