Therapist

I believe that struggles with mental health can make us feel like we’re on the outside looking in — different, misunderstood, or even broken.

Many of the people I work with identify as the “black sheep” in their families or communities — thoughtful, self-aware, but carrying more than they should have to on their own.

My goal is to help you shift how you see those experiences. What feels like a weakness or flaw often has the potential to become a source of strength, insight, and growth.

I specialize in working with people who feel like they don’t quite fit in.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with extensive experience supporting adolescents, adults, and older adults through life’s most challenging transitions. My background spans mental health therapy, crisis intervention, trauma recovery, child welfare, and geriatric care, which allows me to work with clients from a holistic, compassionate, and well-rounded perspective.

I use a strength-based, trauma-informed, and person-centered approach, meeting each client where they are and honoring their unique experiences. My clinical work integrates evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT-informed skills, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to set meaningful goals, build coping skills, and create sustainable change.

I have experience helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, emotional regulation, self-esteem, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I also bring a strong background in crisis support and safety planning, ensuring clients feel supported, grounded, and safe throughout the therapeutic process.

Above all, I strive to provide a warm, non-judgmental, and culturally responsive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Therapy with me is collaborative and paced to your needs, with a focus on helping you reconnect with your strengths and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Therapist

Virtual • Fairview, TX


Are you ready to break free from the weight of past trauma and create lasting change? Are you feeling stuck in cycles of anxiety, depression, or anger, struggling to find peace and connection? Together, we’ll work to heal emotional wounds, strengthen coping skills, and restore balance using trauma-focused, evidence-based approaches. My goal is to help you rediscover confidence, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose—empowering you to move forward with strength, self-compassion, and hope.

Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, especially when shaped by trauma, mood changes, substance use, or family conflict. Through CBT, REBT, and EMDR, therapy offers space to heal, reframe negative thoughts, and release past pain. Together, we build resilience, balance, and peace through empathy, understanding, and growth.

I understand how exhausting it can feel to carry the weight of past pain. You may long for peace, balance, and connection but feel unsure where to begin. Healing is possible—you don’t have to face it alone. Together, we can create a safe, supportive space to process, rebuild, and move toward the life you truly deserve.
