906 North Waddill Street, McKinney, TX

I work with adults, couples, and teens, helping people untangle challenges that often feel overwhelming, interconnected, or hard to name. I believe most struggles don’t exist in isolation—they affect our relationships, our emotions, and how we move through the world. My role is to truly get to know you, understand your story, and support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.


My background is both clinical and academic. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, along with graduate degrees in Philosophy and Sociology, and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Communications. I’m also a doctoral candidate in Educational Psychology. This combination allows me to look at your concerns through emotional, relational, and systemic lenses—not just symptom-focused ones.


I specialize in trauma work, relationship therapy, and working with preteens and teens—who are often misunderstood but incredibly important to support early. I’ve trained in EMDR, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, Art Therapy, and Conflict & Dispute Resolution. Above all, I value creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely supported.

"Your Mental Health Matters—And You Don’t Have to Navigate It Alone."

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, or other mental health challenges? Reaching out for support can be an important first step toward feeling like yourself again.

I’m currently offering a FREE 15-minute consultation to discuss your concerns, answer questions, and explore how I may be able to support your mental wellness journey.

My practice emphasizes holistic wellness, cultural sensitivity, collaboration, and patient-centered care, with the goal of creating a safe and supportive environment where you feel heard and respected.

I support individuals navigating concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, mood changes, and other mental health challenges while working collaboratively to develop treatment plans that reflect each person's individual needs and goals.

Taking care of your mental health is a meaningful investment in yourself. You don't have to figure everything out on your own.
