Finding peace begins with creating compassion and curiosity for ourselves.

Licensed Professional Counselor in Houston, TX

About My Clients

I work with adults and adolescents looking for a warm, non-judgmental space to explore their struggles and experiences. I have worked with a broad range of clients, but I have a strong background with those seeking to understand their anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. My approach is trauma-informed and LGBTQ and polyamorous friendly. I also offer Eye Movement, Reprocessing, and Desensitization (EMDR) therapy.

My Background and Approach

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and received my M.Ed in Counseling from the University of Houston. I have worked in private practice settings as well as a community clinic providing services to vulnerable and at-risk populations. My practice includes individuals, those seeking PTSD treatment, and clients aged 16 and up. My specialties include anxiety, LGBTQ+, feminism, trauma of all kinds (including religious), and attachment styles. I approach each client and their problems in an individualistic way. I often use attachment style theory and cognitive behavioral therapy, combined with person-centered theory in order to create a holistic picture of who you are and what has shaped you. I am also trained in EMDR and trauma-informed therapy. I will work with you to create a therapeutic partnership that will help you gain the insight and change that you are seeking.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I approach my life and my work from a feminist, queer and anti-racist foundation. I believe that no matter what we have experienced in life, we deserve to be believed and to be heard. The universe is uncertain and ever changing--it's up to us as people to make meaning out of our experiences. This is how we empower ourselves.
