I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in South Texas. I have experience providing direct mental health and behavioral counseling for diverse populations including children and teens. I have helped clients build the skills necessary to cope with trauma and abuse, stress and anxiety, depression, family issues, gender identity, confidence, and self-esteem.
I approach the therapeutic relationship without judgment, with respect, and as a collaboration between the client and I. Most of my clinical experience has been working with children, teens, and young adults. I also have experience working with multicultural clients and clients from the LGBTQIA+ community. Every one deserves access to mental health care and my professional goal is to be an advocate for all communities, especially those that are often underrepresented or marginalized.
My experience as a therapist has come from working across various sites such as schools, community centers, and emergency shelters. My therapy style uses elements from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Trauma-Informed Practices and Polyvagal Theory, and Mindfulness. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment and we can work toward achieving your goals through research-based practices. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
