I have been practicing for over 15 years with compassion/empathy guiding my efforts. I have extensive experience with 9 populations: Eating Disorders, Anxiety/Depression, Combat Vets, Geriatrics, Sex Offenders, Substance Use Disorder, Co-Occurring Disorders, Clinic environment, Women's issues.

Originally from Miami, my master’s in Clinical Psychology was a product of my understanding of how mental health can impact a person or family. These experiences shaped my career, allowing me to provide help to clients navigating difficult obstacles while implementing skills to allow them to live a happy and thriving life. I welcome challenges and don’t scare easily, having been well-versed in trauma work, and I'm here to help clients reach their goals and live better for themselves and the people they love. This world is a world of uncertainty; the only thing that is constant is change. When someone wants to change or embrace the changes they are going through, I am here to help them tackle the changes head-on.

Starting my practice in a community setting, I've worked with children, adolescents, and families across the mental health spectrum. I understand how trauma and abuse can impact a person’s livelihood, and I'm passionate about working with individuals who struggle with anger management, depression, anxiety, trauma, and recovery. I think that therapy should be a relationship based on trust and honesty, because change is hard. It can often bring about unwanted or negative feelings, and it's important that you have someone to support you and help to uplift you throughout the changes you are going through.

I believe in the strength and grit that brought you here—and I trust that the same inner resources that carried you here can help you build the life you truly want. I work with emerging adults and motivated seekers who’ve read the books, followed the advice, and tried to fix it all, yet still feel something is missing. You don’t need another voice telling you what to do—you need someone who can help you hear your own. Therapy with me isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong.” It’s about uncovering what’s been hidden, reconnecting with your inner resources, and moving forward with clarity and confidence.

My journey of self-discovery has led me here and now. As most people do, we have hopes, dreams, and plans for our lives and aim for fulfillment. We do not always anticipate some of the obstacles that suddenly require a helping hand, a steppingstone, or a bridge. If you are currently experiencing any such challenge in your life, please reach out for help and support. I can provide counseling for individuals and the entire family. If you or your family is being impacted by addiction, relationship challenges, daily life stressors and disruptions and mental health concerns including depression and anxiety, your time might be now to receive some help.

I am skillful in helping families target the core issues that they are working through, whether driven by addiction or underlying mental health or dynamic factors. I employ strength based, cognitive behavioral techniques and a range of other modalities to achieve outlined goals. My role would be to listen, support, guide and to be transparent at all times.

Fear often holds us back from making a change or accepting help. Facing my fears has carved this amazing opportunity for me to help you. My years in the field has deepened my compassion for helping others of different cultural, ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. I am inspired by those I helped on their journey and would love to do the same for you.

I am at 29-year-old female. I have a master's in social work as well as my certification as a licensed counselor. I offer a judgement free and safe environment to work through any emotions or problems you may be facing. I work well with youth ages 12-18 but also have experience with all ages of adults. I work with those struggling with PTSD, trauma, anxiety and/or depression.

I graduated from the University of Wyoming with a degree in Social Work. While working with a wide range of populations, including teenagers, couples, and substance-using populations, I have had the opportunity to work with middle, and high school students in a school.

I moved to Texas in 2021 with my three youngest children (15, 16, and 20). I’m so excited to be back near the Latino culture, While I’m not there yet, my goal is to regain my previous Spanish language skills and become more fluent!

I think of therapy like working out with a physical trainer but for your brain. We will meet once a week, do the tough stuff together then you’ll go out in the world and practice your skills to keep making gains. Unfortunately, since it’s your brain that changes, we won’t have any cool before and after pictures. I have been a counselor in private practice for 4 years and was a school counselor for about 8 years before that.
