Are relationships—whether with family, friends, or yourself—leaving you feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or disconnected? For more than 13 years, I've worked alongside teens and families in school settings, including 6 years as a mental health counselor and accommodations specialist. I understand the challenges young people face, from anxiety, depression, and ADHD to social pressures, identity development, family conflict, and academic stress. I also work with college students and adults navigating relationships, life transitions, burnout, grief, and anxiety. Therapy can help you feel grounded, understood, and more connected.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe place to be yourself, without judgment or pressure. My goal is to meet you where you are, listen with compassion, and help you feel more understood, confident, and supported along the way.

You might look like you're holding it all together on the outside while feeling exhausted, anxious, disconnected, or overwhelmed on the inside. Maybe you've spent so much time taking care of everyone else that you've stopped checking in with yourself. Or maybe life changed unexpectedly, and you're trying to figure out who you are now.

If that sounds familiar, you're not alone.

I work with children, teens, adults, couples, families, veterans, first responders, and LGBTQ+ individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, major life transitions, and the stress that comes from simply trying to keep up. My goal isn't to tell you how to live your life. It's to help you understand yourself more deeply, quiet the constant mental noise, and feel more confident in the choices you make.

Clients often tell me they appreciate that I'm easy to talk to, calm, honest, and genuine. Therapy with me is a place where you don't have to have it all figured out. You can show up exactly as you are, and we'll take it one step at a time.

Therapist

As a licensed clinical social worker, I specialize in helping adults, women, veterans, BIPOC, and military families navigate the emotional weight of anxiety, trauma, and burnout. My approach is warm, direct, and deeply collaborative — I believe therapy should feel like a safe conversation with someone who truly gets it.

I use evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy-CBT); Mindfulness and Acceptance-Based Therapies (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy-ACT); and Relationship and Family Therapies (Family Systems Therapy). My desire is to help clients begin to heal at the root, not just manage symptoms. Together, we’ll uncover the patterns keeping you stuck and gently shift the beliefs that no longer serve you. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally free — not just in therapy, but in your everyday life.

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Corpus Christi

Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Corpus Christi starts with identity-affirming care. Look for a therapist whose profile names experience with LGBTQIA+ communities, gender identity, coming out, relationship concerns, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Some therapists may also list affirmative therapy, WPATH training, or experience with gender-diverse clients. These details can help you find care that fits your needs, values your identity, and supports the goals you choose to bring into therapy.

In a mid-size market like Corpus Christi, local options for LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy may vary by schedule, specialty, and appointment format. Virtual sessions can expand access if you want more choice beyond nearby offices or need a therapist whose availability fits your week. As you compare options, look at whether the therapist is accepting new clients, offers a free phone consultation, and has training that matches what you want to focus on. Reading bios closely can help you see how a therapist describes their style, communication approach, and experience with LGBTQIA+ clients before you book.

Therapy in Corpus Christi can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see estimated costs before your first session. You can compare therapists by specialty, appointment type, availability, and insurance fit, then book directly when you are ready.
