About Me
I am a Licensed Psychological Associate (LPA) working under the supervision of a Licensed Psychologist (Dr. Dyanna Villesca). In 2026, I will have completed all the requirements to practice independently in the State of Texas. I earned my master’s degree in Forensic Psychology from the University of Houston–Victoria.
I have three years of experience in private practice, conducting comprehensive psychological evaluations for individuals ranging from 18 months old through adulthood. I have extensive experience assessing for neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism, ADHD, and intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as mood and anxiety disorders. I have also conducted CPS evaluations and worked with individuals with significant trauma histories.
In addition to my assessment background, I have previous experience providing behavioral skills training to children and adolescents, as well as delivering case management services for children and families in foster care. I use a person-centered approach when working with clients. I prioritize ensuring that clients feel heard, supported, and actively involved in the assessment process. I am committed to providing high-quality, compassionate care and helping each individual connect with the services that best meet their needs.
