As a special needs dad, a former Spanish teacher, former school counselor (MEdSC), and nurse (MSN), I bring a broad range of experiences to my clients. As a nurse, I have worked PACU, ER, and geriatrics. My goal is to work with the client to reach their goals through the use of counseling, supplements, and medication as needed. I enjoy using belief systems as part of my counseling if desired.
Like many providers, I have worked with many clients with depression, mania, and anxiety. As a previous teacher/school counselor, I understand the impact of ADHD on the student, the classroom, the teacher, and the family.
I think it is important for prospective clients to know that I want to help both now and in the future. For this reason, there are drugs that I don't prescribe (stimulants and benzos) because of the long-lasting side effects.
My hobbies include playing the piano, singing, gardening and family.

I work with adolescents and adults ages 12 through 90, providing comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive psychotherapy.

It is a privilege to be part of your mental health journey, and I look forward to partnering with you to help you build resilience, restore hope, and achieve lasting emotional wellness.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Houston, TX
Finding the right psychiatrist in Houston starts with understanding the kind of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work alongside a prescriber. If you are searching for support with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, look for a psychiatrist whose profile lists training and experience that match your needs.
Houston has many mental health specialists across neighborhoods like Montrose, the Heights, Midtown, and the Medical Center, and the number of choices can make it harder to narrow your search. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute or whether virtual psychiatry appointments work better with your schedule. Psychiatric medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people choose to work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read psychiatrist bios to understand their specialties, appointment style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Houston can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for Houston psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who match your preferences, are accepting new patients, and may accept your plan. You can compare profiles, review appointment times, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
