Top therapists in Texas accepting new patients
As your potential therapist, I view my role in your life as a collaborative one. We often hold the answers to our problems; I help you bring them to light. To clients, I refer to it as being your eyes while you struggle to see. Over the years, I’ve discovered a love for working with adolescents, domestic violence victims, and trauma survivors. I believe my empathy and life experiences have morphed me into the therapist I am today. Whatever you may be struggling with today, I congratulate you on the first step: listening to your body and seeking professional help.
Several factors go into finding a right-fit therapist for you. Research suggests that a strong therapeutic alliance results in more positive treatment outcomes. I encourage you to schedule a phone consultation with myself or other potential therapists. Choosing someone you feel comfortable with is your second and most important step.
The reality is, we have ONE life, why not live it fully? I believe challenges help us grow. You and only you are the key holder to your happiness. Whether you lost it or don’t know what to do with it; our work together will help you find it!

You may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism-related challenges, parenting concerns, or a major life transition. Whatever brings you to therapy, I want to provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and comfortable being yourself.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate with a master’s degree from Lamar University and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Texas A&M University. My journey to becoming a therapist began in education, where I worked as both a teacher and school counselor in the Dallas area. Supporting children, adolescents, and families during those years showed me the importance of feeling understood and supported, and those experiences continue to shape the way I practice today.
I work with children, teens, adults, and parents across Texas through virtual therapy. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and neurodivergent-affirming, with a focus on helping clients better understand themselves, navigate challenges, and create meaningful change in their lives.
In addition to therapy, I have experience conducting diagnostic evaluations for ADHD, autism, and a range of mental health concerns, as well as immigration evaluations. This work has deepened my appreciation for the unique ways each person experiences the world and reinforced the importance of understanding the whole person rather than focusing solely on a diagnosis.

I work hard to create a safe, empathic, and authentic environment. I believe I can best help clients by listening to their story and being a fellow traveler in their lives. I have found a passion for working with a great array of individuals but particularly enjoy working with families, couples, the LGBTQ+ community, and sex therapy. I find the best work I do is simply when I connect with a client. I have my masters from SMU and have done specialized training in Gottman, EFT, and sex therapy.

I work well with children, adolescents and adults, parents, couples and families. I work with helping people improve their self concept, eliminating negative thoughts that disturb our peace of mind. I help people through transitions in their life, trauma, whether that be changes in school/work, relationships, grief and loss, moves, retirement, recreating themselves etc. I help individuals, couples and families communicate in a way that betters their interpersonal relationships. I work with past grief and traumas that get in the way of healthy life functioning. I help people move toward a balanced and happier overall way of life.
I offer an interpersonal style of therapy and I use many modalities and much experience to help individuals, couples and families work through difficulties they may be facing or helping work toward living a more aware, peaceful life. Check out my website for more information. My clients say that they are put at ease with me immediately and I help them.
I am here to listen with a trained ear and help with a easy warmth that will allow you to be gentler with yourself as you become the you that you dreamed to be.

I work with high-functioning adults who look like they have it together and are quietly running on empty—people whose competence has become the thing they hide behind. My foundation is TEAM-CBT, an evidence-based approach I'm certified in at the highest level (Level 3 Advanced) through the Feeling Good Institute, and I train regularly with the Beck Institute. It gives our work real structure and proven tools. But symptoms usually rest on something older, and that's where the deeper work happens. I work most with anxiety, perfectionism, conditional self-worth, and the depletion that hides underneath a successful life.
