Life can get heavy—whether you’re juggling family dynamics, relationship stress, parenting challenges, or just trying to stay afloat. Maybe you’ve always been the dependable one, the person everyone else leans on, but you’re starting to realize it’s time to focus on yourself. You want less tension, more connection, and practical tools that actually make a difference. You’re not after a quick fix—you just want someone real to help you sort things out and walk with you through the hard parts.

I believe therapy works best when you can show up as yourself without judgment, pressure, or feeling like you have to say the “right” thing. I’ve known since I was a junior in high school that I wanted to help people heal from the inside out, and that purpose has stayed with me ever since. For me, therapy isn’t just a job it's my purpose.

I work with clients ages 10+ navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions. I’m warm, down-to-earth, and pretty easy to talk to. You don’t have to come to therapy with everything figured out...we will do that together!

I earned my bachelors degree in communication studies from The University of Texas Arlington, and completed my graduate work with a Masters in Counseling from Texas A&M Commerce.

My practice is based in diversity, awareness, and inclusion for all. I welcome all clients of sexual orientations and gender identities.

I offer in person appointments in Rockwall, Texas as well as virtual teletherapy visits.
