Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. I received my Masters of Counseling Education from Sam Houston State University back in 2004 and was Licensed in 2006. I have a long history of working with clients that have experienced trauma, loss, and are adapting to change. I like helping people define and work towards being their best self despite life's challenges.

I support individuals, couples, and families in understanding how traits associated with ADHD, Autism, Traumatic Brain Injury, and other neurodivergent conditions impact the neurodivergent individual and the dynamics of their relationships with partners, family members, coworkers, and classmates. I encourage my clients to identify their life purpose based on their values, strengths, and lived experiences, while providing actionable feedback through psychoeducation, insights, communication tools, and coping strategies tailored to their specific needs. My goal is to help them cultivate a life that is as unique and meaningful as they are. I work with various types of relationships to enhance communication, set goals, and prevent or resolve misunderstandings and breaches of trust, while helping to rebuild confidence in one another. This includes reinforcing relationship foundations and establishing shared meaning and purpose. Additionally, I enjoy assisting new couples in developing healthy communication skills and trust to strengthen their connection and foster resilient, lasting relationships. When working with children and teens, I adopt a systems-based approach to empower parents in supporting their children. I provide insights into how a neurodivergent mind perceives the world and the myriad demands placed on children today, regardless of whether they are neurotypical, neurodiverse, or anywhere along the spectrum. Drawing on my experience as an autistic parent with ADHD and as a caregiver to my own neurodivergent child, I empathize with families as they navigate the challenges of providing comprehensive support for their children while also prioritizing their own well-being.
