Healing isn't linear and I understand that deeply, both professionally and personally. As a dual -certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and an attorney, I bring a unique, comprehensive perspective to care. But more than titles, I bring lived experience.

I know grief intimately. The pain I carried afterwards was unexplainable. It didn't fit into a neat diagnosis or timeline. That experience shaped not only how I show up for others but why I do my work.

Whether you are navigating the aftermath of a death, a medical diagnosis, a relationship rupture, or job loss, I offer a safe, grounded and trauma focused space. I help clients process complex emotions, rebuild self-trust, and gently move toward healing, at your own pace.

If you're carrying something heavy, you don't have to carry it alone. I'd be honored to walk with you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 16 years of experience in education and mental health support. I hold a Master of Education in Counseling and Guidance from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.

My professional background includes extensive experience as a school counselor, which has strengthened my ability to support individuals through life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. Over time, my clinical work has expanded to include adolescents (15+), adults, and older adults.

I enjoy working with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, and relationship concerns. I also have a strong passion for working with older adults as they reflect on life experiences, cope with changes in health or independence, and find meaning and purpose in later stages of life.

In addition, I work with couples and married partners who are seeking to improve communication, rebuild trust, and strengthen their connection. I support couples in navigating conflict in healthier ways and developing a deeper understanding of one another.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives

One of my greatest passions is working with individuals and families to address hurts and impasses: being both witness and participant.

I view each person within the context of their relationships and family-of-origin. Whatever you are currently struggling with did not start with you. I take a very systemic approach and work with you to not only have a better relationship with yourself, but others. For those suffering with trauma, I am trained in EMDR and promise that you can find relief.

I graduated from West Texas A&M University with a master's degree in Professional Counseling.

Years of experience has taught me to listen carefully to the individual needs of the client. I am passionate about my work and deeply care about recovery.

I have a strong passion for learning about the importance of mental health and decided to complete my graduate studies at Capella University. I graduated with a Master’s in Clinical Counseling and completed my practicum hours at a mental health hospital in San Antonio. I have been providing services to the following age groups: aged-school children, adolescents, and adults. I have experience and can offer services to the following: grief, transitions, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, attachment, relationships, and codependency. My well-rounded experience has allowed me to make connections and provide services to people from different backgrounds.
