I entered the field of counseling to help people from diverse backgrounds heal from past experiences to be able to live more authentic lives that are aligned with their own personal values. I find tremendous meaning in walking alongside my clients as they navigate through both challenging times and times filled with joy. As someone who has spent many a session in the client chair, I am honored to get to fill the role of therapist in your journey.
I received my Masters of Science in Counseling through Southern Methodist University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas and Colorado and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) in Texas. I am trained in EMDR, Gottman levels I & II for Couples Therapy, and am a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist Candidate (CSAT-candidate). Since 2016, my clinical experience has allowed me direct experience working with ages 10+ from culturally diverse backgrounds.
I am well versed in treating trauma and it’s symptoms, mood disorders, grief & loss, and I specialize in the treatment of chemical dependency and compulsive sexual behaviors. Along with this, I work with partners and families of those experiencing the impact of a loved one who may be struggling. I am particularly passionate about supporting those in the LGBTQ+ community as well. I have previously served as Director for Intensive Outpatient and Residential programs treating co-occurring addiction and mental health disorders in teens and adults. I take a person-centered approach to counseling, as I believe each person, couple, and family is unique and comes with a different set of experiences, traits, culture, and goals. In my therapy room, you are valued and in charge of where you take your sessions. I wholeheartedly believe the start to healing begins with the ability to build genuine and honest relationships, and this is what I aim to provide in my therapy with you.
