Because of my past personal and professional experience, I typically work with people who are "finding themselves," which can occur at any age, especially after a big change or loss or life event. I specialize in grief, bereavement, sexuality, and spirituality, and often my clients have some sort of religious background or are artists/makers/creatives. I work really well with sensitive men, strong women, and people who feel stuck or misunderstood.

I'm a licensed clinician with experience providing individual, couples, and co-parenting counseling. I hold a Master's in Social Work, and I'm licensed in both Texas and California.
My clinical background is eclectic—I draw from multiple modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and tailor my approach to each client's needs rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all method.
I specialize in working with individuals navigating major life transitions and those experiencing anxiety, burnout, or relational stress.

I have had the privilege of working with children, families, and adults in all stages of life in both outpatient and inpatient settings who are having mental health difficulties with everyday stressors, life/stage transitions, mental illness, and terminal illness.
