LGBT therapists in Stafford, TX

I am a Doctor of Social Work and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with training in trauma-informed care. I support individuals in building self-determination and addressing maladaptive thought patterns that contribute to anxiety and depression.

Sometimes moving forward feels impossible when so much from the past is still weighing on you. Anxiety may keep your mind on high alert, depression can make it difficult to feel hopeful or connected, and grief or trauma may leave you carrying emotions that are difficult to explain to the people around you. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors experiencing anxiety, depression, stress management, grief or loss, and PTSD. These struggles can also overlap with ADHD, bipolar disorder, panic, relationship or family concerns, LGBTQIA+ and transgender experiences, identity concerns, or other effects of trauma. You may be trying to understand yourself, regain a sense of safety, or simply feel more like yourself again. Therapy can give you a supportive place to make sense of what you have been through while building confidence in where you are going next.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with extensive experience supporting adolescents, adults, and older adults through life’s most challenging transitions. My background spans mental health therapy, crisis intervention, trauma recovery, child welfare, and geriatric care, which allows me to work with clients from a holistic, compassionate, and well-rounded perspective.

I use a strength-based, trauma-informed, and person-centered approach, meeting each client where they are and honoring their unique experiences. My clinical work integrates evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT-informed skills, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to set meaningful goals, build coping skills, and create sustainable change.

I have experience helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, emotional regulation, self-esteem, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I also bring a strong background in crisis support and safety planning, ensuring clients feel supported, grounded, and safe throughout the therapeutic process.

Above all, I strive to provide a warm, non-judgmental, and culturally responsive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Therapy with me is collaborative and paced to your needs, with a focus on helping you reconnect with your strengths and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

I provide personalized mental health care for adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and related concerns. My focus is helping you feel better, think more clearly, and regain control of your daily life.

I offer comprehensive evaluations and medication management through secure telehealth across Texas, with in-person availability in the Dallas–Fort Worth area. Treatment is tailored to your unique needs, with careful attention to effectiveness, side effects, and long-term stability.

Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step. If you're looking for a therapist who will meet you with compassion, curiosity, and a whole-person approach to healing, I'd be honored to support you on your journey. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and five years of clinical experience. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're facing a major life transition, struggling with anxiety, navigating relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a space where you can safely explore what's happening beneath the surface and move toward lasting change.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and board-approved supervisor in Texas. I received my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2017 from The University of Texas at Tyler. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the effects of past experiences that continue to show up in the present.

In my work, I focus on creating a space that feels steady, supportive, and nonjudgmental. Many of the people I work with aren’t always sure where to start. They may just know that something feels off or overwhelming. Together, we begin to make sense of those experiences in a way that feels more manageable.
