I take a holistic approach to therapy, considering the impact on my clients lives of their ancestry, body, family structures, work and finances, and other intersectional realities.
I am trained in Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy by MAPS with over 3 years of practicing Ketamine-Assisted Therapy in a medically supervised clinical setting.
I’m passionate about helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, life challenges and transitions, identity, grief and loss, and relational challenges with compassion and practical support. I utilize evidence based treatment depending on your needs and treatment goals. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of experience in community mental health in Oklahoma, where I provided individual therapy, group therapy, and crisis intervention. I hold a BA in Psychology from Harding University and an MA in Clinical Psychology from Wheaton College. Before returning to the U.S. in 2023, I lived abroad in France and North Africa for over seven years, an experience that deepened my understanding of culture, transition, and resilience.
I’m glad you’re here—I care deeply about helping people improve their emotional and mental well-being by working through past and present challenges. My own journey has shown me the value of therapy in navigating life’s difficulties. I specialize in women’s issues, mental performance, anxiety and depression, adult children of alcoholics, and life transitions. As a devoted Christian, I offer Christian counseling upon request.
I believe meaningful therapy begins with feeling genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My approach is Humanistic and Existential, grounded in empathy, authenticity, and respect for your unique story. While my credentials reflect my dedication to the field, my greatest strength is the genuine care and seasoned clinical experience I bring to each person I serve.
I am a Doctor of Psychology with an Ed.D. in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University, a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC), with more than 15 years of experience in mental health and education. My academic journey began at Virginia State University, a proud HBCU, where I earned a B.S. in Psychology with minors in English and Modern Dance. I later earned an M.A. in School Counseling, with a focus on Psychology and Marriage & Family Therapy, from Phillips Graduate Institute (now Phillips Graduate University).
My clinical and professional experience spans diverse settings and communities. I have worked in every jail in Los Angeles County and served for several years as a Consulting Psychologist at one of Philadelphia’s largest rehabilitation hospitals. As a native New Jerseyan who has spent much of my adult life in Los Angeles, my work as an educator and professor in multiple states, along with decades as a professional dancer and choreographer, has shaped a deeply nuanced understanding of creativity, self-expression, and the mind-body connection.
As a professor, I explore the psychological impact of media on women’s self-esteem, helping clients navigate comparison, societal expectations, and the pressures of modern life.
Therapy with me is collaborative. I will meet you where you are, listen deeply, and help you develop greater self-understanding, resilience, and a life that feels more authentic, purposeful, and your own.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Houston
Finding postpartum therapists in Houston starts with identifying the kind of support that fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also look for pregnancy therapy, prenatal depression support, postpartum counseling, or therapy for new moms. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or work with new parents. The PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health care.
Houston has a large mental health care community, and the number of options can make it harder to narrow your search. For new parents, practical details matter: appointment times, infant care, physical recovery, commute time, and whether a therapist offers virtual sessions. Virtual care can make it easier to meet with a postpartum therapist from home, while in-person care may fit better if you prefer an office setting. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe their approach, which concerns they support, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking.
Therapy in Houston can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your postpartum needs and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage and see which plans are accepted before you book. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, then review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
