6714 North New Braunfels Avenue, San Antonio, TX

Are you tired of being the strong one? I work with adults, high-achievers—the fixers, leaders, and eldest siblings who are used to taking care of everyone else but are secretly running on empty.

My primary treatment areas include:

  • Anxiety & Overthinking: Helping you quiet the racing thoughts and find relief from that constant, "on-edge" feeling.
  • Burnout Recovery: Providing practical tools for professionals and caretakers who are emotionally exhausted and operating on fumes.
  • Life Transitions: Navigating the disorienting, messy middle of major life, career, or relationship changes.

In our sessions, you don’t need a script - just show up as you are. Together, we will turn your stress and constant overthinking into practical, manageable tools that you can use the moment our session ends.

You don't have to carry this heavy load alone anymore—let's work through it together.

2002 Interstate 35, San Antonio, TX

At different points in life, we all need support. Sometimes that means building confidence, managing stress, or improving relationships. Other times, it means working through painful experiences so you can move forward and restore hope.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience supporting children, teens, and adults in a variety of settings, including private practice, nonprofits, and public education. I worked thirty years in public schools as a teacher, administrator, and director of guidance, counseling, and social work, and have a deep understanding of both educational and emotional development.

I believe counseling should be collaborative—you are an active part of the process. I’m trained in EMDR, CBT, and TF-CBT, and other therapies, and can tailor a therapy to fit your goals and comfort level.

Whether you're navigating stress, life transitions, or trauma, I’m here to walk alongside you with experience, compassion, and practical tools for change.
