12030 Bandera Road, Helotes, TX

I’m an LPC based in San Antonio, Texas. I have a master’s in clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in military families and culture. I’m also a Certified DBT Therapist and a member of the ACA.

I’ve worked in mental health since 2018, starting in a psychiatric hospital where I gained broad experience with a wide range of diagnoses and acute care needs.

That foundation, combined with my private practice work, has shaped a grounded, trauma-informed, and practical style to provide you with a therapy experience that is unique to your needs.

I work with adolescents (13 and up) and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, chronic illness, and neurodivergence.

Therapist

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master of Science in Rehabilitative Counseling from the University of Texas–Pan American. I am also Certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (C-DBT) through Evergreen Certifications.


I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, caregiver burnout, life transitions, emotional dysregulation, and difficulties with boundaries and interpersonal relationships. I also support clients who struggle with rumination, feeling overwhelmed, motivation, self-worth, and adjusting to significant changes in their personal or professional lives.


My approach is supportive, collaborative, and practical. I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) strategies to help clients strengthen emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness, while also drawing from other evidence-based approaches based on each client’s individual needs. My goal is to provide a space where clients feel heard and understood while developing practical skills, gaining insight into patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and working toward meaningful, lasting change.
