- LPC
I am a LPC and LCDC licensed in Texas with 5 years of professional counseling work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I come from a non-judgmental approach, and during our session it is your time. I am here to support you even if all you need is someone to listen. My mission is to inspire others, and I believe everyone has the right to live as the best version of themselves. We are all more than a single event or life circumstance. I enjoy helping others rediscover a sense of calm, and create their best life.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
