Couples therapists in El Paso, TX

My educational background consists of earning my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master's in clinical counseling, and a Master's in Addictions. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselr (LPCC #16395) and am a certified addictions counselor. My areas of concentration include grief and significant trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, addictions, and a sub-concentration in eating disorders.

I offer a compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming and LGBTQIA+ affirming space where you can show up as you are. I specialize in working with adults with ADHD and autism, including folks exploring late-in-life diagnosis, self-identification, or simply trying to understand themselves better. I’m also training in Gottman Method couples counseling and have extensive experience supporting polyamorous and ethically non-monogamous relationships, so relationship work here is inclusive, practical, and judgment-free.

I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely safe, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can openly process your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and life experiences without feeling rushed or criticized. I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, so I approach each client with compassion, curiosity, and respect for their unique story and lived experience.

My style is warm, relational, and conversational while still grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand emotional patterns, increase self-awareness, strengthen communication, and develop practical tools they can use outside of sessions. I value creating a therapeutic relationship that feels authentic and empowering, where clients can feel comfortable being honest, asking questions, and moving at a pace that feels manageable for them.

I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that may leave them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. Together, we focus on creating meaningful and sustainable change while also making space for reflection, healing, and personal growth.

I view people like quilts: layered, unique, and shaped by life’s experiences. Some pieces are strengthened by love and resilience, while others are worn by grief, divorce, trauma, or survival. Healing doesn’t require discarding parts of yourself. Even the worn places can become part of something whole.
