Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 17 mi away • Dallas, TX


I strive for creating the conditions were humans can regain their curiosity, hope, and a new interactional perspective of themselves. Having also also known love, generosity, tolerance, respect and solidarity. I reject the need for cynicism: under the right conditions one can comfortably adhere to the unconditional confidence in the human potential for self-understanding, tolerance and positive change.

Hello! I'm an LPC offering individual counseling to adolescents, college students, and adults experiencing difficulties such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, among other areas. I received my BS in Psychology from Texas Christian University in 2016 and my MS in Counseling from East Texas A&M in 2018. Growing up, I loved helping others and felt that listening and empathy came naturally to me. It's a privilege now to bring these same aspects into my role as a counselor.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist in Mesquite, TX

Searching for therapists in Mesquite starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, populations served, and therapy styles that match your needs. A therapist who notes experience with cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples therapy, or support for adults and families may offer a clearer fit.

Mesquite has local therapy options, and nearby Dallas-area access can broaden your search. Virtual therapy can also give you more choices if office location, commute, or appointment timing matters. As you narrow your list, check whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Mesquite can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
