I believe that every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, my goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can openly discuss your concerns and work toward meaningful change. I understand that seeking mental health care can feel overwhelming, and I strive to make the process approachable, collaborative, and personalized. I'm committed to partnering with you to help you achieve your goals.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who welcomes clients ages 14 and older. I am a mother and retired Army veteran who served in military intelligence as a Chinese Cryptologic Linguist.
My work as a forensic interviewer for children who experienced abuse and neglect strengthened my ability to sit with difficult stories and provide safe, trauma-informed care. My lived experiences with trauma, abuse, and autoimmune illness have also shaped my understanding of the mind-body connection.
I am a Clinical Social Worker with a graduate degree from the University of Maryland School of Social Work. For the past two decades, I have been advocating for individuals and families struggling with mental health concerns. My work has primarily focused on trauma, and I have provided therapeutic services to a diverse array of individuals of all ages. I am committed to helping people overcome eating disorders, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, trauma, and other stressors that impact our lives.
Hi! My name is Laura and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. I received my Masters in Clinical Mental Heath Counseling and have been working in the field for over 3 years. I have served a wide variety of clients, aging from 5-77 years old and do counseling for individuals, couples, and families. I have been trained for EMDR, CBT, Gestalt, and a few other theories. I am a Latina women and am also fluent in Spanish, however being culturally competent for all clients is very important to me. If you think I am a good fit for you, I would love to work with you!

I'm a licensed psychologist, an assistant professor at a public university, and — in an earlier life — a musician who led a band around Hongdae in Seoul. I was born and raised in Korea and have since lived and worked across the U.S. and in Vietnam, so I know the experience of living between cultures from the inside.
I work with adults, adolescents, and children, in English and Korean, on ADHD and executive functioning; anxiety, stress, and depression; giftedness, creativity, and high performance (including performers and creative professionals); and bicultural and Korean-American identity, acculturation, and family dynamics across generations. I also see couples and families.
My doctorate is from one of the very few APA-accredited Combined (Counseling & School Psychology) programs in North America, and I've researched creativity and giftedness for more than ten years. Most of my work is by telehealth.
