Experience
I received my undergraduate degree from Texas A&M University and my Master’s degree from LeTourneau University. I thoroughly enjoy working with my clients across teens, adults, and couples. As someone who has also navigated anxiety and depression, I deeply understand the thoughts and fears of those who feel like they suffer unseen. I believe all people have the ability to heal—they just need the best supports available and a compassionate, client-centered space where they feel truly seen, heard, and supported.
Your First Session
It is normal to feel anxious about your first session with a new therapist. If I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to relax and know that it is much more laid back than you would think. I am here to help you and would never want you to feel restless about therapy.
Why I Became a Therapist
At one point in my life I was agoraphobic. Anxiety and depression were winning my emotional and mental battle. With the right care and therapist, I was able to break the cycle of fear. That reason alone is why I became a therapist. I SEE my clients and want them to feel seen, heard, and supported.
Deep Dive: My Specialties
CBT: I use CBT therapy to work on thoughts and negative emotional patterns. By changing our thoughts and actions, we can change our lives. Solution Focused Therapy: I use SFT to help clients work through their own situations with the ideal result in mind. Together we can work through ideas to find the correct solutions for you. Client-Centered Care: I am very client centered. Oftentimes the answers to our problems are there and finding the correct therapist is the key to unlocking and accepting what we already know. I am here to help my clients find that peace with tough situations and tough decisions.
When I'm Not in the Office
Hiking, painting, tending to my flowers, reading, and spending time with family and friends.
