As a licensed therapist in Texas, I bring over a decade of experience supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My professional approach centers on helping clients address challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, family conflicts, and self-esteem issues.
I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I'm committed to creating a compassionate, supportive environment where you can explore your experiences and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. My therapeutic style is collaborative and tailored to your individual needs, focusing on empowering you to build resilience and discover your inner strengths.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I work alongside clients to help them understand their emotional patterns, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and create positive transformations in their lives. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel heard, validated, and supported as you work towards your personal wellness goals.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
