Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Laredo, TX covered by Cigna

Feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed? You don’t have to face it alone. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, and Registered Play Therapist, helping children, teens, and adults navigate life’s challenges with care and understanding.

Through play therapy, children find a safe way to express, process, and heal. Teens and adults receive guidance for trauma, anxiety, and major life transitions. My approach is compassionate, individualized, and focused on helping you move forward with confidence.

I bring experience from juvenile and community settings—including Webb County Youth Village Detention Center, Webb County Treatment Program, United Independent School District, and PILLAR—where I’ve supported clients and mentored clinicians.

Together, we can create a space where you or your child feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to grow.

I believe everyone can improve their quality of life

Healing is possible, even if right now it feels out of reach. Trauma, addiction, and painful life experiences can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or constantly carrying emotions that seem too heavy to manage alone. You may have learned how to survive, but you deserve the chance to truly heal. As a trauma and addiction certified therapist, I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are ready to move beyond simply getting through the day and begin building a life that feels more peaceful, connected, and fulfilling. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be yourself, understood without judgment, and supported every step of the way.

I believe that healing begins when people feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a space where you don't have to have all the answers or pretend everything is okay you can simply show up as you are.

My path to becoming a therapist began at a young age. I earned my bachelor's degree in Education before completing my Master of Social Work at Baylor University and becoming a Social Worker. My background in both education and clinical social work allows me to understand how life's experiences, relationships, and environments shape who we are while helping clients develop practical, meaningful strategies for change.

I founded LyricsHeart Services because I wanted to build a practice centered on compassion, connection, and hope. The name "LyricsHeart" was inspired by my dog, Lyric, whose unconditional love and comfort reminded me of the profound impact that being present for someone can have. After experiencing the grief of losing Lyric, I gained an even deeper appreciation for the ways loss, love, and resilience shape our lives. Those experiences continue to influence how I show up for my clients, with empathy, authenticity, and the belief that healing is possible even after life's most difficult moments.

Today, I primarily work with adults, young adults, and kids navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, stress, self-esteem, relationship challenges, and the emotional weight that can come from trying to hold everything together. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I don't believe therapy is about "fixing" you, it's about helping you better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and build the tools you need to move forward with confidence.

Whether you're facing a major life transition, processing a loss, or simply looking for a place where you can breathe and be yourself, I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

• My approach to therapy is interactive and collaborative, focused on your self discovery and growth. I see our work as a partnership where your voice, values, and goals matter. Together, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy and clarify the changes you hope to see in your life, relationships, and overall sense of well being.
• I prefer to join in with my clients rather than sit back and simply observe. We will actively work together to identify patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that enhance your quality of life. I will offer gentle guidance, ask thoughtful questions, and invite your feedback so our sessions feel useful and relevant to you.
• I believe the therapy relationship is designed to support the change you are seeking. Our work will help you move toward those desired shifts at a pace that feels right, while honoring what is most important to you.
