Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Brownsville, TX

Every person has a story. The culmination of experiences in one's life shapes how they view themselves, their relationships, and the world. I have a passion for helping clients celebrate their unique strengths and gifts they share with others. With experiences in both private practice and hospitals, I have noticed a particular need for clients to separate their view of themselves from their current difficulties and circumstances. In spite of where clients may find themselves at the moment, my belief is that they have overcome every difficulty, challenge, and trauma that they have faced up to the present moment. As such, they will withstand their current circumstances, and will again declare victory.

Maybe your brain will not slow down long enough to finish what you started. Maybe the worry arrives before you are even out of bed. Maybe something happened years ago that you have never really put down. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors carrying ADHD, anxiety, depression, and trauma, and I have spent over six years doing it across private practice, schools, and clinics. I work with people of all ages and abilities, in English or Spanish. It would be my honor to be a part of your journey.

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor who works with women, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, life transitions, and the emotional challenges that come with trying to hold everything together.

Many of my clients are the people others rely on. They're hardworking, responsible, and often look like they're doing just fine from the outside. Internally, though, they may be struggling with overthinking, self-doubt, people-pleasing, relationship challenges, or the weight of past experiences that still show up in their everyday lives.

You’re not broken—you’re just carrying too much alone.

I work with high-achieving adults, athletes, and parents who are navigating anxiety, stress, perfectionism, relationship challenges, performance pressure or life transitions. Many of my clients are used to being the strong one, meeting high expectations, and taking care of everyone else—while quietly struggling to make space for themselves.

I have a particular passion for working with athletes and high performers who are navigating the challenge of figuring out who they are beyond what they achieve. I also work with parents and adults navigating changing roles, relationships, parenting, and the transitions that come when life doesn't look the way you expected - especially raising teenagers.

My approach is warm, practical, and real. I use compassion, humor, and insight from my own world to help you work through what's keeping you stuck, build confidence, and find tools that actually make things better. As a coach's wife, mom of 6, grandma, and professional who has navigated many of these same pressures, I understand how easy it is to lose yourself in the roles and responsibilities you carry.

You don't have to have the right words or have everything figured out before you come to therapy. We'll create a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported as you work toward greater confidence, balance, and a life that feels more manageable.

Counseling is my second career and a profession I genuinely love. My life experiences have shaped who I am as a therapist, allowing me to meet each client’s story with compassion, empathy, and respect. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

I am deeply committed to helping clients navigate life’s challenges, heal from painful experiences, and build a more meaningful and fulfilling life. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, I will work alongside you with curiosity, authenticity, and care.
