I really like my therapist. It feels great to have somebody who listens after a long stressful week. He understands that I need a good listener.

As a licensed therapist in Texas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and personal growth. I have a deep commitment to creating a supportive environment for LGBTQ+ individuals and those experiencing social anxiety, isolation, and interpersonal struggles.
My therapeutic approach focuses on building self-love, improving communication skills, and developing healthy coping mechanisms. I work collaboratively with clients to explore underlying emotional patterns, heal from past experiences, and cultivate resilience. Whether you're working through family conflicts, life transitions, or personal challenges, I aim to provide compassionate, affirming guidance that honors your unique journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
