As a licensed therapist in Texas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop self-compassion, improve communication skills, and overcome challenges related to social anxiety, isolation, and life transitions.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I focus on addressing mood disorders, self-esteem concerns, and ADHD-related struggles. I'm passionate about creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their inner experiences, develop meaningful coping strategies, and reconnect with their sense of purpose.
My therapeutic work is deeply rooted in understanding each individual's unique journey. I strive to provide compassionate, culturally responsive care that honors your personal experiences and empowers you to cultivate greater self-understanding and emotional resilience.

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.
