Hi, I'm glad you're here. If you're navigating a chronic illness, caring for a loved one, coping with grief, or adjusting to a major life change, you may be carrying more than most people realize.

As a licensed clinical social worker with a background in medical social work, I've spent years supporting individuals and families through some of life's most challenging seasons. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when your world changes unexpectedly or when you're constantly putting others' needs before your own.

My goal is to provide a compassionate space where you can feel supported, understood, and less alone as we work through whatever you're facing together.

Counseling is my second career and a profession I genuinely love. My life experiences have shaped who I am as a therapist, allowing me to meet each client’s story with compassion, empathy, and respect. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

I am deeply committed to helping clients navigate life’s challenges, heal from painful experiences, and build a more meaningful and fulfilling life. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, I will work alongside you with curiosity, authenticity, and care.

You and your family's pursuit of healing and wholeness can start here, today! I will honor your voice and partner with you in your journey. If speaking up a struggle for you, I can help you find your voice and learn how to use it. I know the deep impact the work towards wholeness can have on a person’s life and want you to experience the peace and clarity that you deserve. I am truly passionate about helping you know yourself and build the life you want. My desire is to facilitate an environment that is safe for you to heal and grow.

I have been on a journey to my true calling as a therapist all of my life. My life experiences and subsequent journey for personal insight and healing, coupled with my educational pursuits have equipped me for the work ahead with you. I was built with the empathy, discernment, and compassion to do this. I would love to hear your story today!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas working with teens and adults. I came to counseling after more than a decade in education, and I have a master's in Counseling and Development from Lamar University.

Many of the people I work with have spent years adapting to their families, cultures, workplaces, or systems that weren't built with them in mind. Sometimes they've adapted so well they've lost track of what they actually want. I focus on anxiety, neurodivergent burnout, LGBTQ+ identity and identity exploration, immigrant and first-generation experiences, grief that often goes unrecognized (pet loss, estrangement, immigration-related loss), and reproductive decisions. I'm a neurodivergent immigrant myself, which is part of what brought me to this work.
