Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Pilot Point, TX


I believe healing and growth happen best when people feel safe, accepted, and genuinely cared for. I love working with children, teens, and families, and I strive to create a warm, supportive space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.

For children, I have advanced training in Child-Centered Play Therapy, which allows them to express feelings, work through challenges, and build confidence through the natural language of play. Often, children communicate much more through play than they can with words, and I enjoy helping them feel understood and supported in ways that fit their developmental needs.

Life can feel overwhelming when you're carrying more than anyone else realizes. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, parenting stress, trauma, or simply trying to navigate a difficult season of life, you don't have to face it alone. For more than 28 years, I've had the privilege of supporting individuals and families through life's challenges, first through education and counseling-related support, and now as a therapist. I work with children ages 6 and older, adolescents, adults, and seniors, helping each person build resilience, strengthen relationships, and develop the confidence and skills needed to move forward. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and empowered to grow.
