Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Pearland, TX

As a licensed professional counselor and psychotherapist with a passion for helping individuals, couples, and families, I believe prioritizing mental health is the key to happiness and stability in life. People can change if they have the right tools. Life can be a challenge but often it is our response to those challenges that set us apart from those with healthier coping skills.

I am a passionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping preteens, adolescents, and young adults who are grappling with the complexities of mental health disorders, such as anxiety and depression. My clients are overwhelmed by their emotions, struggling to manage daily responsibilities, relationships, and academic pressures. They may feel sad, hopeless, or experience intense anxiety that interferes with their ability to function and thrive. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to navigate their emotional challenges, learn effective coping strategies and improve overall wellbeing,

Despite what ol’ Forrest Gump shared with us while sitting on a park bench, life isn’t always a box of chocolates. Sometimes, it can feel more like a box of rocks. You might feel overwhelmed, stuck, irritated, anxious, depressed, alone, misunderstood, or frustrated with your circumstances and the burdens you carry. You may struggle to understand yourself or those you love, or wonder if there’s something wrong with you, or the world around you. You might ask yourself, What is the purpose of all this? What am I supposed to do? How can I find happiness and peace?

Let’s start by putting down that box of rocks. You don’t have to carry it alone. There are answers, and I am here to help you explore these questions. Therapy offers a safe space where, together, we can explore your thoughts, feelings, and subconscious mind, while noticing your personal strengths- strengths that make you unique, accomplished, and capable.

In a life that may seem uncertain, one thing remains true: there is hope, joy, and peace for you-and it’s within your grasp. I congratulate you on your courage and commitment to finding the change you seek. As an integrative, trauma-informed therapist, I would be honored to be part of your healing journey. The answers may be closer than they appear.

I am a therapist with over 30 years of experience working in a variety of treatment center settings, helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges with compassion and care. Throughout my career, I have specialized in treating abuse-related concerns and supporting clients in their healing journey. I work with children ages 10 and older, adolescents, and adults, providing a safe and supportive space for growth, recovery, and resilience. My broad professional background has allowed me to serve diverse populations and tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs.

I help children, adults, couples, and families who are navigating ADHD, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, or substance-use challenges. As an LPC-S, LCDC, and Certified School Counselor, I bring behavioral-health and school-based experience to therapy. My style is warm, direct, culturally responsive, and nonjudgmental. Together, we identify patterns, build practical coping and communication skills, and create a treatment plan that reflects your needs, strengths, and goals.
