Do you worry your child or teen is struggling with anxiety, trauma, or behavior challenges at home or at school? Are you unsure how to support them, help them cope, or guide them through stress? Today’s children and teens face academic pressures, social challenges, and family expectations that can feel overwhelming. Parents often feel unsure if they’re doing enough or how to best support their child. At SAPANS, our mission is clear: “Let us help you understand your child.”
Thank you for taking the first step in seeking help. Sometimes taking this first step is the hardest for most people to take, so congratulations! My hope is to provide you with a safe place to work on whatever symptoms or concerns you are currently dealing with. I have been in the field for over 15 years and have worked with an array of populations. My experience is in the areas of trauma, PTSD, ADHD, adolescents (at-risk youth), relationship issues, divorce, and law enforcement issues. In addition, I have experience working with veterans to provide a second opinion and/or assessment in support of their VA Disability claims.
As a military veteran, I also understand the expectations of the military lifestyle and the stress this places on family dynamics. My goal is work with your family to help build effective ways to manage both lifestyles without impeding the military mission.
Another unique population that I work with is law enforcement and first responders. Sometimes my purpose is to offer support and/or assistance with fitness for duty evaluations. Again, I commend you on taking the first step to a healthier you. I look forward to working with you and/or your family.
Successful therapy begins by meeting the client where they’re at. As a clinical therapist with a background in social work, I believe therapy should be client-centered with a feeling of safety and trust. I pull techniques from various well-known therapies that are unique to the client's needs, acting as a guide, partnering with the client to find the best path to success. Some may need only one or two sessions, while others more. Regardless, this is a journey that we can figure out together.
I have a variety of experience providing individual, family, and couples therapy to a range of clients from young children to adults. Having worked in environments including the school system, outpatient facilities and private practice, I have a solid understanding of how to collaborate with clients to identify their needs and provide appropriate support or connect to the right community resources. Throughout my career, I have gained experience with navigating conflict resolution, addressing general DSM-5 diagnosis’, and helping clients increase emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Phoenix. I
work with children, adolescents, and adults in
English or in Spanish.
I believe therapy works best when it feels like a
partnership — we'll work together to understand
what's going on, identify what's getting in the way,
and find practical tools that help you move
forward. Whether you're dealing with anxiety,
depression, stress, life changes, or the effects of
past experiences, my goal is to help you build
confidence and strengthen coping skills.
I've worked in inpatient, outpatient, and nonprofit
settings, and I especially enjoy working with
children and adolescents. My hope is that therapy
feels like a place where you can show up as you
are and leave each session with something
meaningful to take with you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Harlingen
Searching for therapists in Harlingen starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. Therapists may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to focus on. Provider profiles can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy.
In a smaller city like Harlingen, local in-person options may be more limited than in larger Texas markets. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Texas. As you narrow your options, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each profile before booking can help you understand the therapist’s communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Harlingen can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, verify your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
