Hello and thank you for visiting my page!
It takes a village to champion life challenges especially when you have experienced trauma. As a counselor, I am here to be a resource and support individuals as they navigate this journey. Let’s be brave together and know you deserve support. I believe in creating affirming, brave, and safe spaces where I celebrate diversity and actively seek to approach my client's concerns with respect and urgency.
My goal is to develop collaborative relationships with my clients to achieve their therapeutic goals. I strive to utilize practical techniques, tools, and valuable resources to assist my clients as they navigate through challenges. To accomplish this goal I tailor the counseling experience to the needs and concerns of my clients using a variety of counseling treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFT), and Gestalt therapy.
Areas of Focus:
-Anxiety
-Depression
-Life Transitions
-Career Concerns
-Relationship Issues
-Women Issues
-Motherhood ( prenatal and postnatal)
-LGBTQIA+ affirming
Education:
-Licensed Professional Counselor
-Certified Career Counselor
-Master's of Science in Clinical and Mental Health Counseling from Texas A&M University-Commerce.
-Bachelors of Arts in Psychology and Child Development & Family Studies from Stephen F. Austin State University.
You are valuable, worthy, and deserve support and I look forward to connecting with you.

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.
