I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. I have over 18 years experience in education including being an elementary school counselor. As an LPC since 2022, I have been working with clients of all ages ranging from 4 to 70+ in private practice. In other words, I have professional and life experience in working with clients across the lifespan. She is comfortable working with a variety of concerns, and welcomes and is inclusive of all backgrounds.

Clients who would be a good fit with me include:

Individuals
I specialize in helping clients navigate the challenges of anxiety, depression, trauma, and daily life stressors. I offer a safe, compassionate space where healing and growth can occur. In our sessions, I take an integrative approach. I have advanced training in evidenced-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I also utilize Polyvagal Theory to help clients understand and manage the physiological and emotional effects of anxiety and trauma. I use coping skills and strategies to provide you tools you can use and discuss what works for you in between sessions.

Healing Children through Play
I am also a certified Synergetic Play Therapist. Synergetic Play Therapy gives children a comfortable, natural way to work through feelings and challenges through play, art, stories, movement, and imagination. Children do not always have the words to explain what is bothering them, so play can help them communicate what they are experiencing in a way that feels safe and familiar. During sessions, the therapist supports your child in understanding big feelings, building coping skills, developing confidence, and learning healthier ways to respond when life feels hard. This approach may help with anxiety, strong emotions, behavior concerns, family changes, grief, social difficulties, or stressful experiences. Parents are included in the process and receive support in understanding their child’s needs and helping them feel more secure at home.

Couples
I am an experienced Gottman Trained marriage/couples therapist.
