Therapy isn’t what it used to be. It doesn’t have to be stuffy or scary. I want you to feel comfortable, safe, and enjoy the process! This is your journey, your time, and your money, so I want to make sure the experience is tailored to you and your needs.
Looking for someone who will truly listen and meet you where you are? I believe everyone needs support at times, and I strive to be that steady, compassionate presence in therapy. Clients often describe me as warm, open-minded, and easy to talk to. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, respected, and comfortable showing up exactly as you are—without pressure or judgment.
I was born and raised in Chicago, IL and I received my MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University in Evanston IL.
I work with adults 18 and over, as well as couples. I work with clients with PTSD, complex and developmental trauma, anxiety, depression, coping skills, stress, relationship issues, sexual abuse, women’s issues, self esteem and life transitions.
With over 20 years as a counselor in an education setting and over 5 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and more. I recently retired from my education profession and now devote all my time to my therapy practice. My goal is to build a genuine connection and be someone you feel comfortable turning to as you move toward the life you want.
I believe healing and growth happen best when people feel safe, accepted, and genuinely cared for. I love working with children, teens, and families, and I strive to create a warm, supportive space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.
For children, I have advanced training in Child-Centered Play Therapy, which allows them to express feelings, work through challenges, and build confidence through the natural language of play. Often, children communicate much more through play than they can with words, and I enjoy helping them feel understood and supported in ways that fit their developmental needs.
As a licensed therapist in Texas with over five years of professional experience, I specialize in helping individuals break through the barriers of anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, trauma, and depression. Whether you're navigating past wounds or building self-worth and confidence, I provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can speak freely and start healing. Together, we’ll work to reconnect you with your strength, clarity, and purpose.
Life doesn't always go as planned. Sometimes illness, loss, or an unexpected transition can leave you feeling like a stranger to yourself. These experiences are more common than they appear, especially when you're someone who looks like they're holding it together on the outside while quietly carrying something heavy within. You don't have to carry it alone.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Texas
Searching for therapists in Texas starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across a state as large and varied as Texas, therapy needs and available therapists can differ across urban, suburban, and rural areas. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. Review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and experience to see whether their background matches your needs. Some therapists may use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, while others may focus on specific populations or concerns.
Location and format also matter when comparing Texas therapists. In larger areas like Houston, Dallas, and Austin, you may have many choices, while other parts of the state may have fewer local options. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility or easier access from home. As you narrow your search, look at appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their style, what sessions may feel like, and whether their communication approach fits your preferences.
The cost of therapy in Texas can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Texas therapists who match your preferences, accept your insurance, and are ready to take new patients. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
