I’m a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 20 years of experience caring for patients across a wide range of clinical settings including cardio thoracic vascular surgical intensive care units, and coronary care units. This extensive background has shaped holistic understanding of health and allows me to approach mental health care with both clinical precision and genuine compassion. I am specialized in treating adults (ages 18 and older) with depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorders, sleeping disorders, substance use disorders with a particular focus on treatment resistant depression. I have specialized training in advanced treatment modalities including ketamine infusions, Spravato, and Trans cranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
Hi, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's degree in Counseling and Development from Lamar University. I specialize in working with adults ages 18 and older, with a dedicated focus on helping clients heal from trauma and PTSD. My practice is designed to be a safe, welcoming, and open-minded space where you can share your story without fear of judgment. I am passionate about partnering with individuals who are ready to process difficult experiences and make meaningful changes in their lives.
For the last 8 years, I've had the privilege of helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, family challenges, and the moments in life that leave you feeling stuck or disconnected from yourself. I also support concerns including grief, OCD, panic, ADHD, and identity. My work is grounded in the belief that healing involves the whole person—mind and body. I bring warmth, curiosity, compassion, and humor into therapy while helping you recognize your strengths and create meaningful change. As Brene Brown says, "You can choose courage, or you can choose comfort. You can't have both".
I primarily work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions.
Since 2016, I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, including outpatient health clinics.
Throughout my experience, I’ve had the opportunity to work with individuals from different backgrounds and with a variety of needs.
I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults experiencing concerns such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, substance use, and panic symptoms. My background in inpatient psychiatry, crisis stabilization, addiction recovery, and geriatric mental health has shaped the way I understand mental health from both a clinical and whole-person perspective. I want my clients to feel respected, heard, and actively involved in their care.
