As a Licensed Professional Counselor with years of experience, I am passionate about helping individuals navigate a range of challenges. My expertise includes supporting women experiencing anxiety, depression, overthinking, or emotional burnout. I also specialize in helping individuals improve their self-esteem, establish and maintain healthy boundaries, practice self-care and mindfulness.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Texas at Brownsville, followed by a Master of Education in Guidance and Counseling from the University of Texas at Rio Grande Valley. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space for you to begin your journey toward healing.

Service has been a constant in my life. I have served in the United States Marine Corps, worked in law enforcement, taught in the classroom, and now serve as a Licensed Professional Counselor. Each chapter shaped how I understand stress, trauma, responsibility, and personal transformation.
My work is grounded in both lived experience and clinical training. I know what it means to operate under pressure. I understand how trauma embeds itself in the body and how identity can fracture under prolonged stress. I also know that change is possible when insight is paired with disciplined, intentional work.
Clients often describe me as direct, steady, and grounded. I don’t believe in surface-level coping alone. I believe in helping you understand your patterns, regulate your nervous system, and build internal strength that carries beyond the therapy room.
Whether you are navigating PTSD, anxiety, depression, or a major life transition, our work together is focused on clarity, resilience, and sustainable change.
You may be the dependable one in your relationships, your family, or your work. The one who figures it out. The one who does not want to burden anyone. The one who keeps going. But underneath that, there may be a constant stream of pressure: replaying what you said, wondering whether you disappointed someone, questioning whether you are doing enough, and struggling to rest without feeling behind. Even when you are functioning, it may not feel like ease. Carrying this kind of pressure, it has to go somewhere. It might show up as overworking, avoiding things you don’t want to deal with, shutting down, or habits you’re not proud of. I work with capable people who have learned to keep going at their own expense.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified EMDR Therapist, and a Sex Offender Treatment Provider. My background includes working with individuals that need help with trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, sexual issues, and depression. My primary approach to treatment is integrating Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Schema Therapy, as well as EMDR therapy for trauma specific treatment. I also integrate other modalities to fit the client's needs and treatment goals.
My approach is to respectfully meet you where you are in your current struggles. I take the time to fully understand what you’re going through so we can work together to identify what’s most important and create clear, meaningful next steps. Together, we’ll focus on practical, measurable progress that helps you move forward in a way that feels right for you.
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn? You don’t have to navigate it alone. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, truly understood, and never judged. I take a collaborative, down-to-earth approach, meeting you where you are and focusing on your unique experiences, strengths, and goals. Together, we’ll make sense of what you’re carrying and create a path toward meaningful, lasting change—at your pace.
